Explaining the Faith - First Fridays and First Saturdays

welcome everybody from around the world once again to our continuing episodes and series of explaining the faith and i'm father chris aylar here at the national shrine of the divine mercy welcome to stockbridge where it's snowy cloudy drizzly but hey we've got something more exciting to talk about today in the faith as you saw from the first slide something that is in many theologians and church people's opinions the most important thing that we are not doing that's the first fridays and first saturdays and we are here to talk about everything you need to know and to do to be able to receive these graces not just for yourself but to help the whole world so let's begin with a prayer in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy spirit amen heavenly father we ask that you send the holy spirit down upon us to open our minds and hearts to receive the grace you wish to bestow and through our lady our lady that gives us these beautiful graces that we can in many ways follow her directive to offer reparation um the communion of reparations to the immaculate heart and to you your sacred heart lord jesus and we ask this through christ our lord amen in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy spirit amen well thank you everybody as as we continue today we are now in 2021 we are celebrating right now a first saturday now if you missed we actually did a prayer service for first friday which was last night and this is already gotten in just a few hours because we did it late last night over 60 000 views between facebook and youtube you can find this already up there it's it's left posted so today we're focusing on the sake excuse me on these first saturdays and um i want to just give you a summary of something that i mentioned in my introduction last night and um i kinda i'm gonna summarize just the first minute or two the first few things that i say here today i want to summarize what i said last night you know we in this world everybody's scratching their heads looking for answers we are facing abortion and crimes against human life we're we're looking at redefining marriage from uh from between a man and a woman we're looking at the loss of religious freedoms we're seeing the indoctrination of our youth we're seeing marxism and socialism spread around the world threatening our very country and our world and our way of life but worse we're seeing a complete loss of morals and a rejection of god that is ultimately leading to something more drastic and that's the loss of souls and this is important because in midst of all this we have to have faith and hope in fact we know that god is not going to remain silent he is going to do something he's always worked through mankind he's not going to come incarnate right now until the second coming he'll come again but he's already been here it's up to us to do what his will is he's always worked through mankind now you everybody here watching as i've been saying from the beginning if you're watching this on a replay if you're watching it because somebody sent it to you and you don't even know what this is um if you're the son or a daughter of a mom who's saying you need to watch this or i'm not going to you know give you your allowance this week whatever it might be god's calling you the fact is that the very fact that you are here the fact that you are watching us is god's grace working in you you're chosen to be here you're chosen for this moment you have a purpose now i've i said last night i've been praying to god for an understanding of what it is that we are to do as a as an army what is it god has been assembling this army there's been tens of thousands of people who've joined us become marian helpers and are saying father what do we do well as i've been saying it's it's this is it this is a time now where god wants us to be formed to go into this battle and it's god's will for you to be part of this mission now the sacred heart and the immaculate heart people might say well father you guys are divine mercy the sacred heart and the immaculate heart lead us to divine mercy and i'm going to talk about that today and it's the only way out of this mess i said last night we were born for this moment we were put here for a purpose and god bless you for responding to god's call to do that you know mary's got this plan she's our commander-in-chief no commander-in-chief doesn't have a plan she has this plan and she gave it to us to defeat this culture of death and all that threatens the world right now it seems to be unstoppable the evils seem to be all around us but the thing is we have faith and belief in our mother who said in the end my heart will triumph in the end my immaculate heart will triumph now here's the thing everybody says to me father i'm not really worried about this because we know god wins yeah god will win the war we know this but there are battles that could be lost in the meantime and that battle is for souls that battle is what we're facing every day so the victory is guaranteed but your job and my job is to limit the casualties what do i mean by casualties lost souls yeah in the end god is going to come mary's triumph heart or heart will triumph but how many souls are going to be lost in the meantime that's where you and i come in our what we will be judged on is did we save as many souls through our love and our prayers this is what it is this victory is guaranteed but not every soul is guaranteed that's up to us and we don't want to lose any in the process so again last night i said we're a special forces group we have groups from all around the world many different nations and we are called marian helpers that's why you're here mary is our commander-in-chief we marian fathers and priests are the generals you guys are the officers and our job is to go and list the foot soldiers pass this spread this word because what i'm about to tell you today is the only way out of this mess the sacred heart making reparation to also the immaculate heart which both leads us to god's divine mercy this is it there is no other way and our goal is to bring as many people into this fight as we can it's the only way we're going to change things um again i've said we've been through boot camp but now it's time to hit the front lines and all of you i've seen you on on on the comments and i've been conversing with you guys god bless you because this is what it's all about right now and this is mary's plan she knows what's best she knows the plan for this battle and this plan is first friday and first saturdays this is the plan all right she knows what's best and that first friday and first saturday all about reparation making reparation to the immaculate heart and the sacred heart of jesus for the sins and ingratitude of not just ourselves but our neighbors to pray rosaries prayers and penances and especially praying for the conversion of sinners today stay with me because i'm going to list for you everything you need to know and then at three o'clock today join us for our prayer service that we're going to do a first saturday prayer devotional service live all right mary's message has been known for decades but it's needed now more than ever because as year after year goes by fewer people are doing it yet the world's getting in more trouble so she's calling us to the gospel to repentance and to basically holiness and ultimately to heaven and so this is where you and i have to listen to her orders her orders are first fridays and first saturdays why how do we know this because both jesus and mary said so jesus said it to saint margaret mary alicoque we'll talk about that and mary said it at fatima we'll talk about that they both lead us to divine mercy and divine mercy saves souls this is the ultimate goal so we have a complementarity between the immaculate heart of mary and the sacred heart of jesus and that gives you a purpose a meaning to your suffering well father i'm bedridden i can't do anything yes you can father i'm in assisted living i can't leave my my room you can still help father i'm in a nursing home i'm i'm i'm invalid yes you can this is all stuff that even if we are bedridding in a nursing home we have purpose because that suffering you're enduring if you can just find a little ounce within yourself to offer it up we can change the world and this is what we're going to talk about today it is penance united to christ for the conversion of sinners and remember jesus told saint faustina the conversion of sinners is the most important prayer we can make this is what he told her to do at the three o'clock hour this is what it is to get peace for the united states and your nation and the whole world all right so let's start with our slides let's look at our first slide here the first friday devotion to the sacred heart of jesus let's begin here this is basically about reparation to the sacred heart for sins in ingratitude that mankind has given to him now the sacred heart what is the sacrifice well father it's just the heart of jesus no it's yes and no it's it's seeing the physical heart of jesus as a representation of his divine love for all humanity everybody needs a heart every body needs a heart and christ's body is the church so to it christ gave his own heart this is what the sacred heart is it's mankind's devotion to christ's humanity very powerful but why do we need it all right let's look at the next slide saint margaret mary alikoc she was a simple nun just like saint faustina see her there jesus appeared to her in 1673 which happened to be the same year we marians were founded we celebrated our founding for years in 16 being in 1673. now we say it's 1670 but i think the connection is powerful now what happened just like faustina saint faustina who was at a dance you may not know this st margaret mary was at a ball just like faustina at a dance and christ crucified appeared to her just like faustina at the age of 20 like faustina she was inspired to enter a convent like faustina she entered into the visitation sisters who were founded by saint francis de sales now they were famed for their humility and their selfishlessness and she made her profession her name is actually margaret alicoque but after her profession they added mary so she became margaret mary now just like faustina some years past of quietness and then she began to have some supernatural experiences now the first of these as i said was in december 27 1673 she was kneeling in front of the grill in the convent and she felt this divine presence and she heard the lord listen to this could you imagine she heard the lord inviting her to take a place the place i'm sorry not a place she heard the lord inviting her to take the place which saint john the apostle had occupied at the last supper can you even imagine she laid her head on his breast the lord told her that the love of his heart must spread and manifest itself to all mankind can you even imagine then the superior she told the superior she should and the superior invited some theologians to hear the story but like faustina they thought she was delusional all right so then let's go to the next slide what's very interesting is this is father claude de la cambiere who ended up being her confessor and he came and spoke with her and talked to her and was convinced she was normal and telling the truth just like father sapochko the confessor saint faustina and guess what see on that slide it said february 15th you want to know what's fascinating the confessor of margaret mary this one i showed you claude de la cambiere died on february 15th the same day sapochko died faustina's confessor and it's also the same day of the namesake or the name day of saint faustus who was the martyr hussein faustina took the feminine form of his name i mean you you couldn't invent all this it's incredible now margaret mary suffered from despair a lot of self-inflicted punishments and even was held in contempt by her sisters again a lot like saint faustina but the opposition from these sisters began to cease after they found some writings from father claude and they were read and it showed that these were pretty pretty good this was some real stuff margaret mary didn't care she was indifferent about it she didn't care what people thought about her but then later when she was a little older like faustina she got very ill now when they were giving her the sacraments she said quote i need nothing but god and to lose myself in the heart of jesus so this is what's going on the sacred heart is regarded as quote this is from the writings here the symbol of that boundless love which moved the word that's the second person of the trinity to take flesh and to institute the eucharist to take our sins upon himself and dying on the cross to offer himself as a victim and sacrifice to the eternal father basically entire our entire faith all of salvation history was just summarized in that summary of the sacred heart wow so here's what's going on this margaret mary alicoak who lived in the of 17th century the 1600s during a time of the enlightenment when man especially in france began to think that they didn't need god and human reason was all you needed you don't need faith or or miracles it's all about human reason the enlightenment it's anything but enlightened it's actually the enlightenment was a darkness it's funny they call the dark ages the dark ages when that's when we were really enlightened with the with the medieval church fathers and whatnot and then they call the enlightenment years later which was really the dark ages because they took god out but what happened was this concept of deism took over deism is where people began to believe that even if there was a god he had no interest in mankind in fact let alone love there was no no love involved but god was kind of like this watchmaker who wound up a clock and let it tick he didn't care he didn't get involved and this influenced many christians into jansenism that was a big heresy that put too much focus on god not being loving but being only a strict justice and disciplinarian so what happened the lord intervened he said this is it too much of this so our lord intervened to dispel this misconception and who did he use just like saint faustina he used a poor lowly nun that nobody would think he would use but somebody who was pure of heart god reminded suffering humanity that the intimate love he bears is in his sacred heart so god wanted us to know this so when he appeared he basically enveloped and raptured margaret mary in a mystical experience of love isn't that our goal aren't all of you watching because you someday want to be enraptured in that mystical love of god hopefully in the beatific vision at the end of our life but maybe even here on earth if we if we if we discover ecstasy ecstasy is not drugs or sex ecstasy is that mystical love of god and so saint mary said quote jesus allowed me to recline for a long time on his divine breast my goodness in the place of saint john where he disclosed to me the marvels of his love and the unutterable secrets of his sacred heart wow so in this this was the first apparition now in the second apparition which was the first friday in 1674 and i'm i'm not going to give you too much history here but i feel it's important to give you some christ showered her or should say showered her with grace's yes but showed her physically the sacred heart so shouted her with the graces of showing her his physical sacred heart and she said it was quote more dazzling than the sun and transparent as crystal she actually saw christ's physical heart let's take a look at our next slide this is the famous picture that you've all seen this is the sacred heart of jesus the cross is above it you see the cross above the heart and a crown of thorns that are circled around it and it signified the wounds that the heart endured as a result of our sins and in in christ wanted to show us this look at the look on our lord's face that's a very powerful face and a lot of times that face was used in the hilah image of divine mercy and this was because he could not stand watching so many people turn away from him he wanted us to experience his love and his mercy and his grace for salvation wow then our weak little hearts can imitate his heart if we see the example detached from any inordinate affections of this world but only to him so same way in the in the divine mercy devotion he wanted that image of his sacred heart spread around the world now the two are connected and we'll talk about that so through it he could pour out all his graces upon the whole world this is the power of the sacred heart that was the second apparition to margaret mary now let's talk a little bit about the third this is where jesus revealed his five wounds they burned with flames and he told her quote this is more grievous to me than all that i endured in my passion can you imagine if they would only give me some return of love i should not reckon all that i have done for them and i would do yet even more you can give me the happiness of making up for their ingratitude he told saint margaret mary ladies and gentlemen joining me today we too can fulfill that jesus said you can give me the happiness of making up for their ingratitude let us do the same somebody might say well i haven't been invited jesus invited saint mark and mary we're inviting you now you're being invited through christ's army of marian fathers by me as a priest by all of the movement of immaculate the heart and sacred heart of jesus and the divine mercy so basically jesus asked that re she receive him in the blessed sacrament often but especially every first friday this is where we're going to get into it he also requested that she make a holy hour every thursday night 11 to midnight and that's actually where the tradition of the holy hour began and it was to seek pardon for sinners and to soothe the grief that our lord experiences and suffers as a result of these wounds people think well he's god he can't ever be hurt yes he can in his human heart the sacred heart is a physical physical heart so not only does christ love and comfort us through his sacred heart but we can extend that love and mercy back to him and console his heart that's what father mike gately's book consoling the heart of jesus is all about so then in june 1675 margaret mary received the final sacred heart apparition and jesus told her to establish the feast of the sacred heart on the first friday after the octave of corpus christi it's in june and he wanted us to receive here we go he wanted us to receive holy communion on this day in reparation to atone for the outrages to the blessed sacrament that he has endured that's why the first friday is for the wounds to the sacred heart and first saturday which we'll talk about in a minute our day today is for the wounds to the immaculate heart now going against these jansenists saint john youths spelled e-u-d-e-s basically began the spirituality that demanded not just imitating christ in our actions but surrendering to the indwelling of christ in our heart so that he may thrive within our souls and our heart and that we could share all his graces and virtues but how hmm do your part in making reparation to the wounds that christ has endured in his sacred heart father how do i do that he told us receive holy communion especially on the first fridays if you can make a holy hour adore him in the blessed sacrament and he also mentioned different things like putting the image of the shrine of the or an image of the sacred heart enthroning it like we do the divine mercy image these are all little side things but we're going to get to the core requirements here the pope said that this is one of the most important devotions in the last hundred years and it's celebrated 19 days after pentecost a very important feast in it jesus is rekindling the love especially in this world where hearts have become cold now jesus makes many promises let's look at these list of promises i'll just go through them really quickly you can reference this later this video will remain online all right the promises jesus said i will give them all the graces necessary for their state in life either married single or consecrated i will establish peace in their homes this is number two on the slide i will establish peace in their homes i will comfort them in their trials i will be their secure refuge during life and above all in death i will bestow abundant blessings upon all their undertakings sinners will find in my heart an infinite ocean of mercy sound familiar let's go to our next slide lukewarm souls will become fervent those are the souls that bother jesus the most fervent souls number eight will rapidly grow in holiness and perfection number nine i will bless every place in which an image of my heart is exposed and honored ten i will give to priests the gift of touching the most hardened of hearts i'm getting emails people saying father my husband hasn't been to mass in 40 years but he's coming back to the church through these live streams god bless you number 11 those who shall promote this will have their names written in my heart never to be blotted out all right but now we get to the biggie the 12th and the big promise let's go to our next slide this is the promise of the sacred heart i promise you in the excessive mercy of my heart that my all-powerful love will grant to all those who receive holy communion now listen this is what the devotion's about who receive holy communion on the first fridays of nine consecutive months and the grace of final perseverance they shall not die in my disgrace nor without receiving their sacraments my divine heart shall be their safe refuge in this last moment wow so we're going to unpack this even more but that's the promise that launched the first friday devotion and we're going to talk about more what you got to do but before that this is the beginning of taking holy communion as an act of reparation the key to all this is that when you receive holy communion on first friday and first saturday you offer it in reparation for the sins and ingratitude if it's friday against the sacred heart if it's saturday it's against the immaculate heart now in 1889 1899 poblio consecrated all of humanity to the sacred heart in preparation for the 20th century holy cow as bad as the 20th century was could you imagine if it wasn't for consecration the sacred heart we never would have made it through it the world wouldn't even be here anymore and pope leo called it the greatest act of his pontificate and confirmed the first friday devotion those of you who know me well know that i think pope leo the 13th was the greatest pope in the history of the church john paul ii yes he's right up there but if he says it's authentic i'm bought in hook line and sinker and so should you it's a beautiful way to express first sorrow for our sins that have wounded the heart of jesus but second a way to take and make reparation for our failure to love him in return jesus is brought the greatest joy it tells us in scripture and margaret mary when his lost sheep draw closer to him and we can especially do that in the eucharist our lord basically made this clear to another nun you hear me keep saying saint faustina listen to what saint faustina wrote in her diary in 1486 and 367. listen to this st faustina said what joy fills my heart when you return to me i'm sorry this is jesus talking to saint faustina what joy fills my heart when you return to me because you are weak i take you in my arms and carry you to the home of my father if you've heard my talk on the mass that's the exact thing that's happening in the mass this all ties together my heart overflows my heart overflows with mercy this is why divine mercy comes from the sacred heart it fulfills it my heart overflows with mercy for souls and especially for poor sinners i desire to bestow my graces on souls but they do not want to accept them please everybody you all have friends and relatives and neighbors who don't want to accept it accept those graces first for yourself and then pray for those graces for them you at least come to me as often as possible and take those graces they do not want to accept in this way you will console my heart okay everybody what is this saying this is saying there are billions of people in this world rejecting the graces of god jesus is telling you you can step up and accept those graces they reject have you ever done that in your prayer have you ever said jesus please give me those graces that everyone else rejects because those graces are already there they're sitting there waiting for somebody to claim them it's like the ultimate lost and found just somebody to come in and say that's it that's what i want lord give me those graces those graces that everybody else rejects and this gives him the most happiness so the great promise that we just read number 12 was not meant to be an automatic ticket to heaven this is not like oh i can live my life full of sin and lust and greed and and anger but you know what i'm going to heaven because i i did that quick prayer no we have to repent and cooperate with god's grace what the great promise shows us is that the lord will never be outdone in generosity you give him a little he'll give you a ton more that's the whole message in return for our simple little willingness to receive his body and blood on this one special day a month he promises to pour out a never-ending stream of grace father how do you know this read the bible john 7 verse 37 says let anyone who thirsts come to me and drink you can drink of the rays of the water pouring from his sacred heart whoever believes in me rivers of living water will flow from within him this is the way wow so take advantage of this extraordinary generosity of jesus and console his heart make reparation when you receive holy communion especially on the first friday for nine consecutive months that's all you have to do nine consecutive months receive all the communion and offer it reparation for the wounds to his heart father i can't get to communion we'll talk about that you make an act of contrition and a spiritual act of communion and catechism 1451 tells us that if you do that your sins even mortal are forgiven as long as you have the intent to come back to the sacrament when it's available so you can do it right now even if you are bedridden the best thing to do is go to mass if it's available god knows don't use this live stream as a crutch that says oh you know what now i can lay around all day in my pajamas even though there's mass just a block away no if you are able to get to mass you should receive christ in the blessed sacrament the next best thing is if you can't have a priest come and bring it to you third if you can't do that is join us for the spiritual act of communion now this devotion and this is if you want to learn more about reparation to the lord's heart you can see father mike gately's book consoling the heart of jesus all right so this devotion became first popular in france it spread to poland god bless the polls and then right here to the united states and did you know the first petition received at the holy see for the institution of this feast was from queen mary of england remember mary and elizabeth they call her bloody mary what a mistreatment of history even though elizabeth was ruthless she was the protestant mary was the catholic and the catholic mary gets all the bad publicity but mary was the one now june was appointed as the month for the devotion and since 1929 this feast has been of the highest rank all right so how do we summarize this our next slide here's a summary holy communion on each first friday the nine fridays must be consecutive so if you didn't do last night start february that's okay just do it nine consecutive but when you receive holy communion it must be made in honor and in reparation to his sacred heart now people say to me father well doesn't this replace divine mercy then doesn't this take the place of divine mercy no because jesus heart is from which divine mercy flows they go together now let's talk about this jesus heart has the same number of wounds as the number of the sins of mankind can you imagine what a wounded heart let's look at our next slide this is the famous image of the sacred heart the wounds see the wounds on there those are our sins the crown of thorns around the heart is his passion while the fire is transformative power of divine love and a lot of times the crown of thorns is actually on the heart okay so what is the answer to all these sins wounding the heart of jesus john you saint john youth said the answer is divine mercy you're wondering why you are watching a marion of the immaculate conception at the shrine of divine mercy because it ties it all together the two hearts are united mary and her immaculate conception we are the miriams of the immaculate conception it ties with the sacred heart and the sacred heart is the source of which all divine mercy comes from we marians are all about jesus and mary that's why i'm a marian and you are now a marian helper you are part of this mission god is calling you to be part of this even if you can't leave your room so what's going on jesus saw divine mercy as mankind's last hope of salvation but that mercy is the perfection of the sacred heart what do we mean all right saint john youths said of all the divine perfections married mirrored in the sacred heart of our savior we should have a very special devotion to divine mercy and this was in the early six mid 1600s way before faustina and we should endeavor to engrave its image on our hearts do you know mitch pacquiao my good friend from ewtn he's a jesuit and jesuits always say you don't need anything but the sacred heart mitch pacquiao said divine mercy completes and fulfills the sacred heart what is mercy if you've heard my other talks online mercy is compassionate love it's a particular mode of love that when love sees suffering it just doesn't go gee i'll pray for you even though that's good divine mercy is the love that sees the suffering and says you know what i'm gonna do something about it that's why divine mercy was god the father doing something about our sinfulness by sending his son and giving us a mother when you have mercy it's seeing the suffering of another and taking their mercy upon yourself like a mother does with a child when a child's sick the mother feels more pain than the baby that's mercy so mercy is a particular mode of love that when it encounters suffering it does something about it it takes action so in the sacred heart we learn god is love the source of everything is love but in divine mercy that love takes action that's why in the divine mercy image we see christ's left foot stepping forward listen to saint catherine of siena the sacred heart of jesus is all love but the form that love takes when it reaches out to humanity is mercy you see how this is all connected do you see why a miriam priest is telling you about the sacred heart and why you've been brought into this by god to be part of it fascinating faustina said love of god is the flower but mercy is the fruit and dr stackpole the theologian who works for us here said quote we need both the feast of the sacred heart and the feast of divine mercy just in case you were wondering if you only needed one or the other he says you need both the feast of the sacred heart of jesus was meant to be a day of loving reparation to his heart that's why we celebrate the sacred heart of jesus in reparation in the first fridays consoling his heart while the feast of divine mercy is supposed to be a celebration of all the merciful love that flows from that sacred heart you see it both feasts are needed and jesus himself asked for them both amazing wow so how does god's merciful love come from his sacred heart the image the image of divine mercy blood and water the scripture tells us came out of his side but actually dr stackpole tells us when the spear that was stuck in jesus side on the cross went through his chest cavity it actually punctured his heart and the blood in the water that flowed out the side actually came from his heart when he was pierced by the spear so let's look at our next image you've seen this this is the image of divine mercy the white ray which represents baptism and confession the cleansing waters of baptism and the healing words of confession and the white ray the red ray or the the dark ray or i should say the the pale i'm sorry my my as you can see i got one hour of sleep last night working on this trying to put everything together so have mercy on me the red ray is the precious blood this is everything so the two main tools let's look at this image you know what satan's only two tools are sin and death and so satan's first tool sin is wiped out by that first ray the cleansing waters of baptism in confession they wipe away sin and satan's second great tool of death is wiped out by the red ray the precious blood which is life why because blood was the life of the animal to the jews to the jews blood was life so if satan's tool is death what wipes out death life and what was life to the jews blood this all connects you don't need anything more than what we're talking about here today and be part of it you are with us praise god every one of you has been selected by god to be here to receive this grace and to do our part to save others because those who have not been sent here our job is to get them here or to pray for them all right so do the enthronements of the sacred heart image and the divine mercy image compete no they're both the same heart of jesus they are both the same sacred heart of jesus so it's the same heart but just under different aspects listen to this this is fascinating it's the same heart but different under different aspects what do i mean in the sacred heart we console him in the divine mercy he consoles us wow again the sacred heart jesus said come to me and make reparation to this for the sins and ingratitude against my sacred heart i am love we didn't do it we got to go back to that god saw we didn't do it so he poured out his mercy out of that heart out of this sacred heart all over us that's the image of divine mercy the blood and the water poured out over the world and we still didn't accept it so ladies and gentlemen go back with me to the source make reparation to that sacred heart so that sacred heart wounds can be healed and it can pump back out that great divine mercy rays of red and white blood and water if we heal that sacred heart if we heal the wounds of that sacred heart that sacred heart can gush forth even more rays of mercy on this world right now the mercies of of blood and water being clogged up because the holes of the wounds is just all over and and we have to heal those wounds so it can pump those graces into this world this is why the warnings of mary are always contingent if we make reparation to the sacred heart and heal those wounds then more mercy will be brought on the world it'll be poured out i didn't even think about this before this talk i'm just it's just coming to me right now but it makes perfect sense i mean it makes so much sense in the sacred heart we come to him but in divine mercy if we let him he pours it out to us but because the sacred heart is so wounded how much more can our lord keep pouring out mercy on this world when we keep killing the babies in the womb redefining marriage taking away religious liberty closing churches do we really think god's going to keep pouring mercy out onto the world pretty soon it's going to be justice let's get back to heal that sacred heart so that that sacred heart could be healed and then pour out that mercy again this is the answer praise god so this is what we have here the diary 1553 oh jesus saint faustina said it is through your compassionate heart as through a crystal that the rays of divine mercy have come to us there it is it is through your compassionate heart as through a crystal that the rays of divine mercy come to us that's why we gotta make reparation to that sacred heart so that those rays can keep coming to us holy mackerel divine mercy our diary 1570 through his merciful heart as through an open gate we pass through to heaven wow there you go that's the first fridays now i've used up most of my time for the first saturdays where we're in today but you know what we can't we can't we got to go over with it please stay with me the first fridays let's look at our next slide the first saturdays they keep saying first fridays first saturdays this is devotion to the immaculate heart she's the one who leads us to that sacred heart well father you just told me about the sacred heart that's all we need well we got to get there don't we what good is it to get to the sacred heart if we can't find our way well good is the sacred heart to us if we don't know how to get there mary is the way to jesus drew mary that's miriam consecration miriam consecration is all about two jesus drew mary and so this is it jesus said mary's heart has two qualities sorrowful and it is immaculate and he wants both recognized sourful just like jesus's heart had two aspects so does mary's remember i just said jesus heart the sacred heart is about us coming to him and in his the divine mercy heart is about him going out to us it's the same with mary the sorrowful heart means everything she did for jesus she shared in his sufferings and father apostles said this i borrowed this from father apostoly and he said the immaculate part of her heart is meant everything god did for her by preserving her from any stain so let's look at this next slide let's go back to saint john yudes in the 17th century he's the first one who began the modern devotion of the two hearts isn't that beautiful look at the two hearts there his mission was to connect the sacred heart of jesus to what he called the admirable heart of mary isn't that cute he was the first to dedicate churches to the sacred heart and the immaculate heart of mary and that amazing thing how many churches we know called the sacred heart of jesus we have one of those in pittsfield and other churches called the immaculate heart of mary he was the first one so devotion to the immaculate heart of mary began to mostly spread though at fatima that's where it really became to spread now if you haven't seen my talk on fatima you can look it up we have it as one of the series talks on uh explaining the faith but let's just summarize it real quick all right next slide on july 13th now mary started appearing on may 13th 1917 but the big one was july 13th mary in the first part of that day or that vision mary showed the children a vision of hell and told them that great trials were going to come upon earth if they didn't do people didn't do what she told us she warned of chastisement again this is if we keep not repairing the wounds of the sacred heart so it can pour mercy out she warned of chastisement but said it was conditional this is why we're here so that the lord's hand will not strike as faustina held the hand back of the angel that was going to strike at poland by the divine mercy chaplet and by the rosary of the children of fatima mary said these chastisements could be prevented through a couple ways first was consecration to russia we'll talk about that in a minute but also the faithful had to offer their communion on five consecutive first fridays guess what in reparation for the sins against the immaculate heart very similar to the sacred heart but now we're talking mother mary mary told lucia one of the three children in fatima that she was asking on the first five saturdays of consecutive months this next slide first go to confession again if you can't make an act of contrition next receive holy communion again if you can't physically have a priest come to you if that is not possible make a spiritual act of communion which we will do at the end of this talk then recite or pray the rosary five decades at the time it was joyful sorrowful and glorious john paul ii has now added the luminous and then meditate on the mysteries of the rosary for an additional 15 minutes mary said keep her company for a quarter of an hour while meditating on the mysteries of the rosary again this is very powerful all right so as the catechism tells us don't despair father i can't get to confession again catechism 1451 if you can't get to confession make an act of contrition but promise and have the intent to go to confession when next available same with communion if you can't get to communion make a spiritual act of communion and have the intent to go to holy communion as soon as possible now let's talk about this first saturday promise next slide she promises to assist those at death with all the graces necessary for their salvation wow can you get a better advocate seriously now we all know fatima began on may 13 1917 did you know that that was the feast of our lady of the eucharist there we go again connecting mary and jesus just like the christmas octave first day of the octave is christmas birth of jesus last day of the octave is mary the mother of god you can't separate mary from jesus you can't do it now what happened next slide on may 13th the children lucia who was 10 francisco who was eight and jacinta who was seven said a lady more brilliant than the sun appeared to them wow mary asked for prayers and penance to never offend god again she said mankind must abandon oneself to god and the source of love and mercy who is god so abandon yourself to god who is the source of love and mercy all right so mary said pray the rosary every day to obtain peace for the world and the end of the war this is why it's tied into the obligations of the first five saturdays she tells them to come back on the 13th of every month for six months all right for more detail on this go to my fatima talk but i'm going to summarize it real quick let's look at our next slide let's talk about the secret of fatima now the holy see treats them as three parts but one secret there's not three secrets there's three parts to one secret mary revealed on july 13th and as we mentioned the first part was the vision of hell i already mentioned that which was so awful the church the children said they would have died of fright had mary not already promised that they would go to heaven sometimes fear is not a bad thing it can straighten us out all right let's talk about if that was the first part of the secret mary showed them hell let's talk about the second part let's go to our next slide mary said you have seen hell where the souls of poor sinners go to save them god wishes to establish in the world devotion to my immaculate heart wow doesn't you think we ought to listen if what i say to you is don many souls will be saved and there will be peace the war is going to end but if people do not cease offending god a worse one will break out during the pontificate of pius the 11th let's go to the next slide to prevent this i shall come to ask for the consecration of russia to my immaculate heart we'll talk about that in a minute and underline and reparation on the first saturdays later she came and gave the details of that if my requests are heated russia will be converted and there will be peace if not again conditional she will spread her heirs throughout the world causing wars and persecutions of the church the good will be martyred the holy father will have much to suffer various nations will be annihilated but in the end my immaculate heart will triumph the holy father will consecrate russia to me and she will be converted and a period of peace will be granted to the world all right before you say that's not happened yet father stay with me let's go to the third part of the secret now the third part of the secret you know it's not on the slide but an angel cried out penance penance penance but let's read what it says here lucia said the holy father passed through a big city half in ruins and half trembling with halting step interesting because john paul had a halting step when he got parkinson's afflicted with pain and sorrow he prayed for the souls of the corpses he met on his way having reached the top of the mountain on his knees at the foot of the big cross he was killed by a group of soldiers who fired bullets and arrows at him and in the way there were the and in the same way they're died one after another the other bishops priests men and women religion religious and various lay people now how do you know that our holy father pope john paul didn't die from being shot remember mary said everything is contingent everything depends could be changed based on our reaction so it seems like enough people prayed that prevented john paul from being killed that day he was shot as the bell tolls wow awesome in that third secret this isn't on the slide but i can read it beneath the two arms of the cross there were two angels each with a crystal crystal aspersorium in his hand in which they gathered up the blood of the martyrs and with it sprinkled the souls that were making their way to god you know i think the blood there is the infants slaughtered in the womb they're the true martyrs holy innocents then mary promised a great miracle on october 13th as this july apparition she said on october 13th i'm going to do a miracle so all will believe now what's funny is you know what that miracle saint joseph appeared did you know that what an amazing coincidence since this is the year now with saint joseph it's all coming together sacred heart immaculate heart divine mercy saint joseph it's all coming together so let's look at our next slide what happened on that october day the sun miracle of fatima all right now seventy thousand people gathered some for good reasons others to criticize it was all wet muddy rainy all of a sudden boom the miracle happened the sun danced in the sky and all of a sudden everything was dry clean clear so does that mean all was good right mary came did her miracle now everybody's cleaned up they can go home no world war ii still happened and mary's predictions of hunger and persecutions of the church still happened francisco and jacinta they suffered francisco died and then jacinta had two ribs removed without anesthesia because of an inflamed lung poor little things they suffered and you know what she suffered out they both suffered of the flu the spanish flu the pandemic the pandemic 100 years ago exactly is exactly 100 years ago that they suffered with this pandemic of a spanish flu huh kind of interesting in 1925 then in spain the christ child jesus described how mary's heart was wounded by blasphemy these blasphemies are horrendous they are of many kind let's look at this next slide i just found this online you want to talk about unbelievable blasphemies look at this i don't know who emma maggie solberg is but we gotta pray for her i can't even imagine spending one minute on such garbage as the virgin and we wonder why mary his heart has been so wounded by blasphemy jesus said that these blasphemies were against her immaculate conception her virginity perpetual virginity her divine maternity instilling hate and children against her and those who revile her sacred images don't worry we're going to show a slide on this so it's coming up don't worry about that the blessed virgin requested of jesus she almost never ever has requested anything for herself that i'm aware of and i'm sure some theologian could find some council back in the day where it said she did and i could be wrong i admit but i'm unaware of any time mary has ever asked jesus for something for herself until this this is how critical it must be to our salvation and she requested the five for saturday's devotion because of these blasphemies have we responded man father seraphim is going to be joining us at three o'clock today and he tells the story this is very interesting of a priest that was in japan that shared a story with him that when he met this priest in rome and this priest said that the ambassador from japan was not christian approached this priest and said war is your fault and he pointed to this japanese priest catholic priest and he said we do not have peace in the world and it's the catholics fault the priest said ambassador why do you blame us and the ambassador said i've told i've been told about this i've been told about the lady who came to you catholics at fatima right that's what you believe right he said yeah he said well what did she tell you she told you what to do to secure peace in the world well there's no peace in the world so it's obviously you catholics haven't done it and he said done what he says this five first saturdays holy cow here's a non-catholic calling out a catholic priest you're not even doing the five first saturdays and you wonder why there's not peace that's an incredible story the priest said but isn't peace everyone's responsibility and the ambassador was vehement he said no she came to you catholics she didn't come to the buddhists she didn't come to the hindus she came to you you catholics and it's your responsibility holy mackerel this ambassador had more faith than most catholics so yes mary came and asked for these specific things at fatima for us to have peace what are they again to pray the rosary every day for peace in the world for the consecration of russia and each of us individually to take mary into our heart to make reparation to our immaculate heart to make reparation for the sins against that immaculate heart and to observe the five first saturdays of reparation if you don't need any more evidence of the importance of doing this i don't know what does so what are these five first saturdays our lady explained the five first saturdays to sister lucia in december 1925. here's what she said 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 let's ask ourselves that question tell them that i promise to assist at the hour of death with the graces necessary for salvation for all those who in order to make reparation to me on the first saturday of five consecutive months go to confession receive holy communion save five decades of the rosary and keep me company for a quarter of an hour that's 15 minutes meditating on the mysteries of the rosary we are gonna do that today at three o'clock father i can't remember how to do this i'm not exactly sure i'm a little hesitant join us at three o'clock we're going to make an act of contrition an act of spiritual communion we're going to pray the rosary and we're going to meditate i'm going to walk you through a meditation on the rosary mysteries why are the five first saturdays picked in particular jesus explained this why not nine like this the sacred heart why five jesus explained this to lucia in may of 1930 he said this is easy it's clear he said there are five kinds of offenses and blasphemies most spoken against the immaculate heart this is what i was talking about earlier now i showed the next slide i made a mistake on this though number one is really the title blasphemies against the immaculate conception that's actually number one and i'm sorry uh do we have the slide up brother mark is this light up okay um number two is blasphemies against her perpetual virginity so number one is blasphemies against immaculate conception again i made a mistake that shouldn't be the title it should be number one blasphemy is against her perpetual virginity mary wasn't a virgin she had many other children again i do a talk on mary that you can find on youtube type in mary and father chris aylar you can see i explained all of this blossom is against her immaculate conception oh she had to be a sinner no god's mercy prevented her from sinning in the first place no mary was a sinner disgusting sinner just like that disgusting book said she was a virgin no no no no no no no number three blasphemies against my divine maternity no mary was not the mother of god you do not call her that people refusing to receive her as their mother the mother of mankind four those who speak to infants and children in the hearts or implant in the hearts of children indifference disrespect or even hate for the immaculate heart of mary and then fifth those who revile her directly in her sacred images hmm we see that a lot burning decapitation of these images breaking of the images so does does this still matter does the sacred heart still matter i'm sorry the immaculate heart we know the sacred heart does what about the immaculate heart seems to be forgotten many have forgotten this our grandmas and grandpas did these devotions but do you i have to admit i i'm being totally honest with you my grandma did these but i didn't and even as a priest i wasn't doing them correct praise god that we're all meeting here together as an army so we're getting our marching orders so many have forgotten but the five first saturdays are still relevant we still have war going around non not a lot of peace we still haven't seen the fulfillment of our lady's promise that in the end her immaculate heart will triumph so what's going on here well wait a minute didn't she say the holy father will consecrate russia mary said quote the holy father will consecrate russia to me and russia will be converted and a period of peace will be granted the world well wait a minute has that happened what do you mean father that it's happened well look at our next slide sister lucia said he made the consecration in the way in which the blessed virgin had wished that it should be made afterward people asked me if it was made in this way in the way our lady wanted and i replied yes from that time on it is made now she claimed it was made on march 25th 1984. we know that the ussr fell shortly afterwards just five years later but wait a minute there's still not peace all right listen i'm not going to get into the debate of the consecration of russia whether or not russia was consecrated does not apply to you and me other than prayer we can't control it that's between god and the holy fathers the last several popes and the current pope and we are not a factor other than in prayer in the meantime it is questionable communism has spread its ears all the way around the world china is now destroying a lot of the church in in in oppression and communism as a whole wants to destroy the family because in the family authority replaces the authority of the state and so this i always wondered why is communism against the family because in the family the authority is the father we got to destroy the patriarchy kind of familiar that's the manifesto of some of these groups that are leading the riots today communism wants to destroy the family because it challenges the authority of the state so why haven't we seen this why haven't we seen the conversion of russia in the triumph of the immaculate heart remember whether or not russia was consecrated or not was only part of the equation there were two parts first yes russia had to be consecrated but whether or not russia was consecrated or not we had to do the second part and that was to do the first five saturdays have we been have most of us been faithful to her request of the five first saturdays this is done through the daily rosary and meditation on the mysteries we said that we still haven't seen the triumph of the immaculate heart even pope benedict said that and there still is no peace why because i believe most of us have not been faithful to the requests of the five first saturdays and the communion of reparation when you receive holy communion on the first friday and on the first saturday make reparation communion of reparation to the sacred heart on friday and the immaculate heart on saturday it doesn't matter if russia was consecrated or not if we don't do our part the second part was for us to absolutely absolutely do our part in the first five saturdays now there's still another problem boy you're just full of problems father chris let's read the next slide jesus said they did not heed my request hmm what's he talking about like the king of france he's talking about now the sacred heart when jesus asked that france be consecrated to the sacred heart they will repent and do it but it will be late russia will have already spread her errors throughout the world provoking wars and persecution against the church huh could that be what we're seeing today with infiltration the holy father will have much to suffer so we still have this problem even if john paul ii did consecrate it was late and this made jesus upset giving russia time to spread her errors it took a long time to be consecrated if it was consecrated which the vatican says it was i don't want to debate that so it might take a long time for it to be converted there's a difference between consecrated and converted consecrated means the bishops and the holy father did the prayer to consecrate it conversion means we actually see the catholic church come back in russia fully now in the midst of this we have to do our part and remember this is not just about five particular days and five months oh yeah i could do it this one day that month and i could do it this first day that month no this is a way of life this is not just five little isolated prayers that i do over five month period that's how i used to treat it that's why i meant but i was doing it wrong we need to pray for the grace to be converted in any areas of our lives that are not under christ this is why mary's plan fixes in in in teaches us to grow in holiness right especially with monthly confession and holy communion prayers and penance and seeking to follow god's will we have an opportunity to offer these sufferings emotionally physically spiritually the sickness your pain your disappointments your trials your misunderstandings your annoyances as well as any voluntary fasts or penances we can offer them every day in reparation for the sins against the sacred heart and the immaculate heart not just these five days or the nine days of the sacred heart don't take me wrong here nothing is wasted we should be doing it every day it should be a way of life but especially on the first fridays and saturdays don't worry nothing is wasted if you are homebound if you are in a nursing home if you are hospitalized afraid of covet or uncertain about the future unite everything with the cross of jesus through mary's immaculate heart in reparation for the sins of the world and for the conversion of sinners especially all of us we're part of a marian family and starting now i'm going to be offering this for you this is where i feel i've been called this is what i feel god has brought me here for a purpose this is what i feel i'm supposed to be doing as father joseph who's the director of the association of marriage helpers for all of you the marian helpers wow but do it for other marion helpers do it for your family friends even your enemies no suffering is too small it'll all be used everything is salvific and powerful when united with jesus in the mass as i say to the little precious ladies at the at the nursing home they say father i'm of no use anymore what's the rule on assisted suicide i don't want to live anymore i'm a burden financially to my family and on this staff no your sufferings even an ounce of it offered up with the cross of christ through this mass even live streamed is more powerful than an atomic bomb little things done with great love even little sufferings this is the little way uh saint perez talked about this mary will make them great all right so wrapping up here last page this plan is ongoing and daily but you renew it in a special way every first friday and every first saturday this is powerful it will transform us and our hearts will be converted more and more and we will have peace we cannot have peace in the world and do we have peace in our hearts and we turn with trust to god's divine mercy don't you see how it all connects this is why our next slide is to be a marian helper this is what we do for each other this is what we are supposed to be doing you're not a mirian helper yet jump aboard go to mic prayers dot com be a mirian helper pray for us we pray for you there's no obligation if yeah god puts on your heart to financially support our ministry god bless you but that is not a requirement i don't care if you ever pay us a penny if you say i don't have any money father but can you send me some of these prayer cards and pamphlets you got it absolutely i got to keep the doors open i know that but but but god will provide if we provide you the spiritual food don't worry about it if i can't donate anything i don't care just open your heart to receive the grace so that we can help save your soul not just me but but all other marian helpers it all comes from god so the sacred heart the immaculate heart divine mercy they all tie together the two hearts are one heart and from that one heart comes divine mercy there's nothing else like this in the world we focus on the two spiritual weapons as mary and fathers mary and divine mercy remember our apostolate is divine mercy it's what we do but who we are as miriams of the immaculate conception and remember god's greatest act of mercy was the immaculate conception so the goal of fatima was to establish a world devotion to the immaculate heart of mary and we're part of that but remember she was the immaculate conception long before any of these devotions even fatima who was mary she is the immaculate conception i am the immaculate conception and as one of our employees said that was the beginning of the end of the devil's kingdom wow satan was waging war now he can't hurt her so what does he do he goes after her children what do you do when you're a child and you're in trouble you run to your mom mama i saw some video this little baby that was just months old going mama that's what we should be doing i mean we're adults but we should be going mama this is who she is for us satan is waging this war on her children because he has no hold over her she didn't have any sin that's why there's perfect enmity between them that's why she was immaculately conceived if she was not immaculately conceived then satan would have had some hold over her but he could have with total enmity god said there'd be total enmity that had to mean that this woman who was to come she wasn't even born yet this is in the garden god said there will be perfect enmity between you and the serpent well how could there be perfect enmity if she had any sin there wouldn't be perfect enmity because that would mean satan had some control over her so this is important that you see it so to protect yourself every day appeal to her make your morning offering ask for prayers of protection but most of all reparation to the sacred heart and the immaculate heart we've been talking about we'll try to put some prayer packets up online that you can download for free on our website more to come on that but unite your sufferings with jesus and mary for the conversion of sinners prayer most pleasing to jesus is for the conversion of sinners this is what it's all about so the key is the communion of reparation intentionality have that intention in your prayers do penance and reparation for the offenses against the two hearts when you receive holy communion especially on first friday and first saturday again if you cannot go to communion on saturday father apostle says in this book that you can go on sunday father my church is an open on saturdays we don't have saturday mass well you can go on sunday and fulfill this obligation so as an employee and i were talking the best thing that you can do is first receive physically if you can receive physically go so you can make an active communion spiritual act to communion with us today on saturday and go to mass and receive communion actually on sunday that's like the best combination well i take that back actually being able to receive on saturday at the daily mass a morning mass would be best and then going sunday to fulfill your sunday obligation the next best would be saturday making an act of spiritual communion with us and then going on sunday to receive holy communion at any time you can go to confession if your priest is available or make an act of contrition right even if you forget at confession you should also make your intention for the reparation at your confession for the first friday and first saturday and remember one confession suffices you don't have to go to confession on friday and then turn right around again and go on saturday even though some of us might need it you don't have to do that well if you're in mortal sin yes you do okay if you're a mortal sin you have to but what you have to do is go to confession as close to that saturday as you can now when father possibly wrote his book he said about eight days but since then the church has extended the plenary indulgence to 20 days before or after for confession so if you're in a state of grace you could go you know what i heard him explain to best just go in that month you should be making you should an effort to go to confession monthly if you do that you're covered you're covered for every first friday every first saturday if you go once a month now if you're not in a state of grace and you've committed mortal sin you gotta go again but go go even if you forget at that confession to make the intention for the reparation to the two hearts you can do it at your next confession so try to go once a month even if we can't go to communion or confession under the circumstances of the craziness in the world we trust that god will receive our attempts to repair his heart and mary's heart and convert sinners it's not an excuse to miss master do not say well father said i could just do the spiritual act of contrition and a spiritual act of communion i don't have to go to church yes if church is available we do this is for those who can't bedridden or in the hospital but everybody could do something we are constrained to the sacraments but god is not and so god makes many promises with these devotions but it should be first for reparation to the sacred heart and the immaculate heart it shouldn't be first that we get the promises even though those are great and the promises to help us but that shouldn't be our only motive our motive should be to help wound or help the wounds of of the immaculate and sacred hearts so the promise of the five first saturdays again to summarize is to assist us at the hour of death with the grace is needed for salvation and salvation is the main goal of our life on earth so is this important well if you say the main goal of your life on earth is salvation and doing this helps get you the graces for salvation yeah i would call it pretty important so if you make the five first saturday devotions even once five consecutive you should be doing it the whole year but even once father possibly said mary will not forget it but you should keep doing it begin it becomes a way of life pope benedict said learn the message of fatima live the message of fatima and spread the message of fatima and dog gone it i was gonna read you from his book that particular section and i forgot it again with one hour of sleep i just am not sharp so it's page 230 of father apostles book on the message of fatima for today beautiful all right so we should plan to make these first fridays and first saturdays as regular as possible we can spiritually do this during lockdowns and in person once this emergency has passed all right god bless you guys we're going to now finish with a summary you forgot all this father i can't remember all that join us at 3 o'clock today we're going to walk you through it and if not let's summarize next slide first friday receive holy communion on each first friday the nine fridays must be consecutive and they must be made in honor and in reparation of his sacred heart you do that what's the promise jesus promise number 12 in the excessive mercy of my heart and the all-powerful love i will grant to all those who do this final perseverance they shall not die in disgrace nor without receiving the sacraments my divine heart shall be their safe refuge that's the promise now let's finish with first saturdays all right what is first saturdays tell them that i promise this is mary to assist them at the hour of death with the graces necessary for salvation those who in order to make reparation to me on the first saturday of five consecutive months do what again last slide to show it again go to confession or make an act of contrition go to communion or making spiritual active communion pray the rosary and meditate on the mysteries for 15 minutes god bless you and as the last slide shows if brother mark can put it up heaven has promised now it's up to us this is amazing so god bless all of you and you know what i said we would make a spiritual act of communion and an act of contrition an act of contrition is just in your own words tell god that you're sorry and you'll try to do better and i make reparation to the sins and the wounds of the heart that i've caused you and all others and the act of communion is just saying jesus i believe you are present in the most blessed sacrament i love you above all things and i desire to receive you into my soul but since i cannot at this moment receive you sacramentally come at least spiritually into my heart i embrace you as if you were already there and unite myself holy to you never permit me to be separated from you wow you have all been brought here for a purpose you've all been brought here for this moment last night i made the comment that i'm a big hockey fan and herb brooks of the 1980 usa hockey team told his team before the russian game that they were have given no chance to win that this was their time that they were born for this moment he said you were born to be hockey players if that motivated them so much to go out and beat the russians who they had no business beating you too were born for this moment you were born to be here and you too can go as david and slew goliath what is goliath this culture of death we can defeat evil how not us but us helping usher in who will defeat it the immaculate heart of mary and with the five first saturdays we can usher in the triumph of the immaculate heart god bless you on this mission and be careful out there there's a lot of pitfalls don't fall in the pit if you do get back up by going to confession and with god's grace and mercy we know we won the war but we'll win this battle and we won't lose souls in the process our job is to prevent those casualties god bless you and through the intercession of mary immaculate may almighty god bless you and yours the father the son and the holy spirit amen why be a marian helper because we mary and father celebrate a mass for you and all our members each and every day you can share in all the prayers good works and merits of all the miriam priests and brothers around the world and now you can share the graces just as if you were a marian priest or brother every all souls day we see a mass for all the deceased members of the association of marian helpers again there's no way that after we die we can help ourselves but we have to rely on the prayers of those here on earth and we members of the marian fathers will be praying for you as a deceased member of our association you can share in the graces of the perpetual novena to the divine mercy remember jesus told saint faustina that the chaplet of divine mercy is one of the most powerful prayers we can make and every day here at the shrine of divine mercy we pray it and you can share in those graces so if you have any questions or you want to learn more how to be a marian helper please visit micprayers.com or call 1-800-462-7426 and let me personally pray for you and your loved ones
