33 Days to Morning Glory-Led by Father Matt
Week 6: preparing for consecration
It will be 6 weeks on Monday, February 05, since the start
of 33 Days to Morning Glory. We have had a great response
and many blessing have come out of this preparation. The
class has been meeting consecutively every Monday
evening. This class will end with a Mass of Consecration
to the Blessed Virgin Mary on the Feast of Our Lady of
Lourdes.
Feb 11th at 12:00 p.m. at the church
(With a luncheon at the Knights of Columbus Hall to follow
after Mass)
Three recommendations to prepare for Consecration Day:
Make a good confession- but if you don’t have time to do so before the
consecration, then from your heart tell the Lord you’re sorry for your
sins, and make a resolution to go to confession as soon as you
reasonably can.
2. Write out or print up the prayer of consecration, so you can sign it after
you’ve recited it, (there in the participant package you will find one)
3. Get a miraculous medal to wear around your neck as a sign of your
consecration-or at least keep one in your purse or wallet.
These are recommendations given by Fr. Gaitly, found in his book 33 Days to
Morning Glory

First Saturday Devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary
Our Lady of Fatima Promises all the Graces Necessary for
Heaven if a Catholic Finishes the Five First Saturdays Devotion.
"Whether the world has war or peace depends on the practice of this
devotion, along with the consecration to the Immaculate Heart of
Mary. This is why I desire its propagation so ardently, especially
because this is also the will of our dear Mother in Heaven." -Sr.
Lucy (March 19, 1939)
On December 10, 1925, our Blessed Mother again appeared to Lucia
at Pentevedra, Spain, where the seer had been sent to the Dorothean
Sisters to learn to read and write. It was there Our Lady completed her
request for the Five First Saturdays and gave her great promise.
Appearing with the Queen of Heaven in that apparition was the Infant
Jesus, Who said to Lucia: “Have pity on the Heart of your Most Holy
Mother. It is covered with thorns with which ungrateful men pierce it
at every moment, and there is no one to remove them with an act of
reparation.”
Our Lady then spoke: “See, my daughter, my Heart encircled by
thorns with which ungrateful men pierce it at every moment by their
blasphemies and ingratitude. Do you, at least, strive to console me.
Tell them that I promise to assist at the hour of death with the
graces necessary for salvation all those who, in order to make
reparation to me, on the First Saturday of five successive months,
go to confession, receive Holy Communion, say five decades of
the Rosary, and keep me company for a quarter of an hour,
meditating on the fifteen mysteries of the Rosary.”
The elements of this devotion, therefore, consist in the following four
points, all of which must be offered in reparation to the Immaculate
Heart of Mary. One should make this intention before carrying out
Our Lady’s requests. A renewal of the actual intention at the time is
best; however, if such an intention is made now, it will fulfill the
requirements if, for instance, the actual intention is forgotten at the
time of confession.
Confession: This confession can be made before the First Saturday or
afterward, provided that Holy Communion be received in the state of
grace. In 1926, Christ in a vision explained to Lucia that this
confession could be made a week before or even more, and that it
should be offered in reparation.
Holy Communion: Before receiving Holy Communion, it is likewise
necessary to offer it in reparation to Our Lady.
Rosary: The Rosary is a vocal prayer said while meditating upon the
mysteries of Our Lord’s life and Passion and Our Lady’s life. To
comply with the request of our Blessed Mother, it must be offered in
reparation and said properly while meditating.
15-minute meditation: Also offered in reparation, the meditation
may embrace one or more mysteries; it may include all, taken
together or separately. This meditation should be the richest of any
meditation, because Our Lady promised to be present when she said
“...those who keep me company....”
To those who faithfully follow Our Lady’s requests for the Five First
Saturdays, she has made a wonderful promise which she, as
Mediatrix of All Graces, will certainly fulfill: “I promise to assist at
the hour of death with the graces necessary for salvation.” This
means that our Blessed Mother will be present at the hour of death
with the actual grace of final perseverance, (which after the gift/grace
of Faith), is the most important grace.

La Devoción del Primer Sábado a la Virgen
En su tercera aparición en Fátima el 13 de julio de 1917, la Santísima Virgen
anunciaba que vendría una vez más a pedir la Comunión Reparadora de los
Primeros Sábados.
Años más tarde, cuando Lucía ya se encontraba en la Casa de las Religiosas
Doroteas, en Pontevedra (España), Nuestra Señora la visitaba nuevamente y
también a su lado, sobre una nube luminosa, estaba el Niño Jesús:
Mira, hija mía, mi Corazón rodeado de espinas que los hombres ingratos, en cada
momento, me clavan con blasfemias e ingratitudes. Tú, al menos, procura
consolarme y di que a todos aquéllos que :
durante 5 meses - en el primer sábado - se confiesen, reciban la Sagrada
Comunión, recen el Rosario y me hagan 15 minutos de compañía meditando
sobre los Misterios del Rosario, con el fin de desagraviarme, Yo prometo
asistirlos en la hora de la muerte con todas las gracias necesarias para su
salvación.
¿Por qué 5 sábados?
Después de que Lucía pasara unos momentos en oración, Nuestro Señor le
revelaba la causa de ser 5 los sábados de reparación: Hija mía, la razón es
sencilla: se trata de 5 clases de ofensas y blasfemias proferidas contra el
Inmaculado Corazón de María: 1ª - Blasfemias contra su Inmaculada
Concepción. 2ª - Contra su virginidad, 3ª - Contra su Maternidad Divina,
rehusando al mismo tiempo recibirla como Madre de los hombres. 4ª - Contra los
que procuran públicamente infundir en los corazones de los niños, la
indiferencia, el desprecio y hasta el odio hacia la Madre Inmaculada. 5ª - Contra
los que la ultrajan directamente en sus sagradas imágenes.
