FATIMA

Pope Pius XII: “I am concerned about the messages of the Blessed Virgin to Lucia of Fatima. This persistence of Mary regarding the dangers that threaten the Church is a divine warning against the suicide of altering the Faith in her Liturgy, in her Theology, in her soul… I have heard around me innovators who want to dismantle the Sacred Chapel, destroy the universal flame of the Church, reject her vestments, and make her feel remorse for her historical past.

A day will come when the civilized world will deny its God, when the Church will doubt as Peter doubted. She will be tempted to believe that man has become God. In our churches, Christians will search in vain for the red lamp where God awaited them. Like Mary Magdalene who wept before the empty tomb, they will ask, ‘Where have they taken Him?’” (Pope Pius XII, quoted in Monsignor Roche, Pius XII Devant)  l’Histoire, pp. 52-53).
