STEP 2

When you Visit Jesus! Upon entering your Parish Church or Chapel, Make the Sign of the Cross with Holy Hour Make a proper Genuflection If Jesus is hidden in the Tabernacle then you Genuflect on one knee If Jesus is exposed in the Sacred Monstrance your Genuflection should be on both knees and when on both knees, bow your head reverently Enter your pew and Greet Jesus with all of your Heart!

Fatima’s “Angel of Peace” appeared to the three little Shepherds in 1917, and convened the first “Children’s Holy Hour.” Quickly they would become students in the “School of the Immaculate Heart of Mary,” and apostles of prayer and sacrifice. God used these small children to renew the Gospel message of repentance and call the world back, through Mary, to His Son. Most Reverend Robert W. Finn, D.D. Bishop of Kansas City ~ St. Joseph

At Fatima, Our Lady called for adoration and reparation for
the sins committed against God, and against the Heart of Jesus and the
Immaculate Heart of Mary.

And when the Angel of Peace gave Holy Communion to the little Shepherds,
what was the meaning of this?
Sister Lucia said, “For me it means that God wants to renew
our Faith in the Presence of Jesus Christ in the Blessed Eucharist.

Adoration is the first act of the virtue of religion. To adore
God is to acknowledge Him as God, Creator and Saviour,
the Lord of all that exists, infinite and merciful Love.

At Fatima, first the Angel and then the Blessed Virgin came
to call all human beings, through the three children, to adore God,
to make reparation for the offences
committed against Him and against the Immaculate Heart
of Mary, and to collaborate in the salvation of sinners who
do not adore Him, do not hope in Him and do not love Him.

However, we can only respond to this request if we live united to Jesus
our Saviour, who is present in all the
tabernacles of the world.
The measure of our union with
Him determines the measure of our response. If we are
separated from Jesus we shall not be able to do anything.

John 15:5 "I am the vine; you are the branches.
If a man remains ... I am the vine, you are the branches: He that stays in me,
and I in him, the same brings forth much fruit: for without me you can do nothing. ..."
