Fatima - American Heritage Girls

Fatima Novena Prayer
O Most Holy Virgin Mary, Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, you were
pleased to appear to the children of Fatima and reveal a glorious
message. We implore you, inspire in our hearts a fervent love for the
recitation of the rosary.
By meditating on the mysteries of the redemption that are recalled
therein may we obtain the graces and virtues that we ask, through
the merits of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer.
Fatima Rosary Prayer
O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell, and
lead all souls to Heaven, especially those in most need of Thy Mercy.
