Greetings to Presidents of Member Nations of the World Apostolate
of Fatima
and all the people of the world, who wish to participate
in gathering the children of the world, before our Eucharistic Lord
Jesus.
Since receiving the blessing of our International
President, Professor Americo Lopez Ortiz, in February of 2006, to
promote the children’s programs, ‘Children of the Eucharist’
and the “Worldwide Children’s Eucharistic Holy Hour,”
the success of these programs have continued to grow and to bear
fruit. Blessed Francisco, patron of this movement of Eucharistic
Adoration for our world’s children and young people, continues
to bless our work.
The next global Children’s Holy Hour, which
takes place annually on the First Friday of October, is right around
the corner, and I invite your participation to help gather the children
of your nation before the tabernacles of your parish churches, ‘to
console Jesus’ in the Most Blessed Sacrament, and
to give children an unprecedented opportunity to pray for their
own family and for all the families of the world.
Our children, through their sacrifices and prayers
of adoration before Our Eucharistic Lord, will help bring about
the New Springtime in the Church and in the world!
“Dear Boys and Girls, Our Lady
needs you to be like the “Little Shepherds” of Fatima.
She needs you to console Jesus, who is sad because of the bad things
done to Him. She needs your prayers and your sacrifices to help
change the world.” Pope John Paul II ~ Beatification Ceremony
of Blessed Francisco and Jacinta.
This year I have exciting news! The Pontifical Mission
Society of the Holy Childhood Association has come aboard, and will
be participating in the “Children’s Holy Hour”
at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception
in Washington, DC. and throughout the world.
As we know, the “Angel of Peace” came
as a ‘”Teacher of Love” to help the Little Shepherds
and all the children of the world to understand how much God loves
them and desires to be loved by them. Gathering our world’s
children before our Eucharistic Lord Jesus is our response to the
requests of the Angel of Peace, to make Eucharistic reparation to
the Sacred Heart of Jesus and to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
The Children of the Eucharist program enrolls the
children of the world into the ‘School of the Immaculate Heart
of Mary’ and gives them the opportunity to become ‘active
spiritual members of our apostolate’ as they
unite their prayers with other children and all young people around
the globe.
Millions of children and youth gathered in prayer
and united with the Immaculate Heart of Mary have the potential
to open a ‘floodgate of grace and mercy’
upon our world.
Please review the attached documents and
consider translating these documents into your national language,
and preparing a presentation for your Cardinal or Bishop requesting
permission for the participation of the children of your nation,
diocese etc, to join in the Annual “Worldwide Children’s
Eucharistic Holy Hour” which this year is upcoming, First
Friday, October 2nd ~ 2009 ~ Feast of the Guardian Angels.
Please find attached the “Order of Service”
- short version and complete version - for you to translate into
your national language and to send to your bishop along with the
suggested attached Letter of Presentation.
Please send us a copy of your translation, so
that we can make it available for others who use the same language.

we need translations for those languages.
