about:
- Our Lady of Fátima (Portuguese: Nossa Senhora de Fátima, European Portuguese: [ˈnɔsɐ sɨˈɲoɾɐ dɨ ˈfatimɐ]
- location: Fatima, Portugal
- date: 13 May - 13 October 1917
- Between May 13 and October 13, 1917, three Portuguese children received apparitions of Our Lady at Cova da Iria, near Fatima, a city 110 miles north of Lisbon
- is a title referring to the Virgin Mary, based on apparitions reported to be experienced by three shepherd children at Fátima. The three children were Lúcia Santos and her cousins Jacinta and Francisco Marto.
- The apparition is also referred to as Our Lady of the Rosary (a term first used in 1208 for the reputed apparition in the church of Prouille), because the children said the apparition called herself the "Lady of the Rosary". A combination of these titles is also seen, i.e. Our Lady of the Rosary of Fátima (Nossa Senhora do Rosário de Fátima).
- The events at Fátima gained fame due to elements of secrets, prophecy and eschatology, particularly with regard to World War II and possibly more World Wars in the future. Chief among these is also the alleged urgent need for the Consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The reported apparitions at Fátima were officially declared worthy of belief by the Catholic Church.
- Mary asked the children to pray the rosary for world peace, for the end of World War I, for sinners and for the conversion of Russia. The third visionary, Lucia dos Santos, became a Carmelite nun and died in 2005 at the age of 97.
- Mary gave the children three secrets. Since Francisco died in 1919 and Jacinta the following year, Lucia revealed the first secret in 1927, concerning devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The second secret was a vision of hell.
- Pope John Paul II directed the Holy See's Secretary of State to reveal the third secret in 2000; it spoke of a "bishop in white" who was shot by a group of soldiers who fired bullets and arrows into him. Many people linked this to the assassination attempt against Saint John Paul II in St. Peter's Square on May 13, 1981.

Observations: The facial features of the young/adolescent and old photos of Sr. Lucia doesn't quite match. The anatomy of a child changes through adult stage but certain facial features hardly changes as a person grows old like the shape/flow of the eyebrows and shape of the lips. Also, a person's smile (the shape/contour/movement of the lips as well as the chin) will pretty much remain similar all throughout a person's life regardless of age and weight....well, there's a possibility that i might be wrong...

Our Lady's Messages (2014) - Medjugorje

source: http://www.medjugorje.org/msg14.htm

"January 02, 2014
"Dear children, for you to be able to be my apostles and to be able to help all those who are in darkness, to come to know the light of the love of my Son, you must have pure and humble hearts. You can not help for my Son to be born in, and to reign in, the hearts of those who do not know Him, if He does not reign – if He is not the King – in your heart. I am with you. I am walking with you as a mother. I am knocking on your hearts. They can not open because they are not humble. I am praying, and you my beloved children also pray, that you may be able to open pure and humble hearts to my Son and to receive the gifts which He has promised you. Then you will be led by the love and strength of my Son. Then, you will be my apostles who everywhere around them spread the fruits of God’s love. My Son will act from within you and through you, because you will be 'one'. My motherly heart yearns for this – for unity of all of my children – through my Son. With great love I bless, and pray for those who are chosen by my Son – for your shepherds. Thank you."
At first Our Lady was sad and then decisive.

January 25, 2014
"Dear children! Pray, pray, pray for the radiance of your prayer to have an influence on those whom you meet. Put the Sacred Scripture in a visible place in your families and read it, so that the words of peace may begin to flow in your hearts. I am praying with you and for you, little children, that from day to day you may become still more open to God’s will. Thank you for having responded to my call."
01/25/2014

February 02, 2014
"Dear children, with motherly love I desire to teach you sincerity, because I desire that, in your actions as my apostles, you be exact, resolute, and above all sincere. I desire that, by the grace of God, you be open for a blessing. I desire that by fasting and prayer you obtain from the Heavenly Father the cognition of what is natural and holy – Divine. Filled with cognition, under the shelter of my Son and myself, you will be my apostles who will know how to spread the Word of God to all those who do not know of it; and you will know how to overcome obstacles that will stand in your way. My children, by means of a blessing, God's grace will descend upon you and you will be able to retain it through fasting, prayer, purification and reconciliation. You will have the efficiency which I seek of you. Pray for your shepherds that the ray of God's grace may illuminate their ways. Thank you."
02/02/2014

February 25, 2014
"Dear children! You see, hear and feel that in the hearts of many people there is no God. They do not want Him, because they are far from prayer and do not have peace. You, little children, pray - live God's commandments. You be prayer, you who from the very beginning said 'yes' to my call. Witness God and my presence and do not forget, little children: I am with you and I love you. From day to day I present you all to my Son Jesus. Thank you for having responded to my call."
02/25/2014

March 02, 2014
"Dear children, I am coming to you as a mother and I desire that in me, as in a mother, you may find your abode, consolation and rest. Therefore, my children, apostles of my love, pray. Pray with humble devotion, obedience and complete trust in the Heavenly Father. Trust as I have trusted when it was said to me that I will bring the blessing of the promise. May out of your hearts, from your lips, always come forth 'May your will be done!' Therefore, trust and pray so that I can intercede for you before the Lord, for him to give you the Heavenly Blessing and fill you with the Holy Spirit. Then he will be able to help all those who do not know the Lord – you, apostles of my love, will help them to call him 'Father' with complete trust. Pray for your shepherds and place your trust in their blessed hands. Thank you."

Annual Apparition To Mirjana - March 18, 2014
The visionary Mirjana Dragicevic-Soldo had daily apparitions from June 24th 1981 to December 25th 1982. During the last daily apparition, Our Lady gave her the 10th secret, and told her that she would appear to her once a year, on the 18th of March. It has been this way through the years. Several thousand pilgrims gathered in prayer of the Rosary.. The apparition lasted from 13:46 to 13:51.
"Dear children! As a mother, I desire to be of help to you. With my motherly love, I desire to help you to open your heart and to put my Son in the first place in it. Through your love for my Son and through your prayer, I desire for God’s light to illuminate you and God’s mercy to fill you. In this way, I desire for the darkness, and the shadow of death which wants to encompass and mislead you, to be driven away. I desire for you to feel the joy of the blessing of God’s promise. You, children of man, you are God’s children - you are my children. Therefore, my children, set out on the ways on which my love leads you, teaches you humility and wisdom, and finds the way to the Heavenly Father. Pray with me for those who do not accept me and do not follow me - those who, because of hardness of their hearts, cannot feel the joy of humility, devotion, peace and love – the joy of my Son. Pray that your shepherds, with their blessed hands, may always give you the joy of God’s blessing. Thank you."

March 25, 2014
"Dear children! I am calling you anew: begin the battle against sin as in the first days, go to confession and decide for holiness. The love of God will begin to flow through you into the world, peace will begin to rule in your hearts and God's blessing will fill you. I am with you and intercede for all of you before my Son Jesus. Thank you for having responded to my call."
03/25/2014

April 02, 2014
"Dear children, with a motherly love I desire to help you with your life of prayer and penance to be a sincere attempt at drawing closer to my Son and His divine light - that you may know how to separate yourselves from sin. Every prayer, every Mass and every fasting is an attempt at drawing closer to my Son, a reminder of His glory and a refuge from sin - it is a way to a renewed union of the good Father and His children. Therefore, my dear children, with hearts open and full of love, cry out the name of the Heavenly Father that He may illuminate you with the Holy Spirit. Through the Holy Spirit you will become a spring of God's love. All those who do not know my Son, all those thirsting for the love and peace of my Son, will drink from this spring. Thank you. Pray for your shepherds. I pray for them and I desire that they may always feel the blessing of my motherly hands and the support of my motherly heart."
04/02/2014

April 25, 2014
"Dear children! Open your hearts to the grace which God is giving you through me, as a flower that opens to the warm rays of the sun. Be prayer and love for all those who are far from God and His love. I am with you and I intercede for all of you before my Son Jesus, and I love you with immeasurable love. Thank you for having responded to my call."
04/25/2014

May 02, 2014
"Dear children, I, your mother, am with you for the sake of your well-being, for the sake of your needs and for the sake of your personal congnition. The Heavenly Father gave you the freedom to decide on your own and to become cognizant on your own. I desire to help you. I desire to be a mother to you, a teacher of the truth – so that in the simplicity of an open heart, you may become cognizant of the immeasurable purity and light which comes from it and shatters darkness, the light which brings hope. I, my children, understand your pain and suffering. Who could understand you better than a mother? And you, my children? Small is the number of those who understand and follow me. Great is the number of those who are lost - of those who have not yet become cognizant of the truth in my Son. Therefore, my apostles, pray and act. Bring the light and do not lose hope. I am with you. In a special way I am with your shepherds. With a motherly heart I love and protect them, because they lead you to Heaven that was promised to you by my Son. Thank you."
05/02/2014

May 25, 2014
"Dear children! Pray and be aware that without God you are dust. Therefore, turn your thoughts and heart to God and to prayer. Trust in His love. In God’s spirit, little children, you are all called to be witnesses. You are precious and I call you, little children, to holiness, to eternal life. Therefore, be aware that this life is passing. I love you and call you to a new life of conversion. Thank you for having responded to my call."
05/25/2014

June 02, 2014
"Dear children, I call you all and accept you as my children. I am praying that you may accept me and love me as a mother. I have united all of you in my heart, I have descended among you and I bless you. I know that you desire consolation and hope from me because I love you and intercede for you. I ask of you to unite with me in my Son and to be my apostles. For you to be able to do so, I am calling you, anew, to love. There is no love without prayer - there is no prayer without forgiveness because love is prayer - forgiveness is love. My children, God created you to love and you love so as to forgive. Every prayer that comes out of love unites you with my Son and the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit illuminates you and makes you my apostles - apostles who will do everything they do in the name of the Lord. They will pray with their works and not just with words, because they love my Son and comprehend the way of truth which leads to eternal life. Pray for your shepherds that they may always lead you with a pure heart on the way of truth and love - the way of my Son. Thank you."
06/02/2014

June 25, 2014
"Dear children! The Most High is giving me the grace that I can still be with you and to lead you in prayer towards the way of peace. Your heart and soul thirst for peace and love, for God and His joy. Therefore, little children, pray, pray, pray and in prayer you will discover the wisdom of living. I bless you all and intercede for each of you before my Son Jesus. Thank you for having responded to my call."

Ivanka's Yearly Apparition - June 25, 2014
At her last daily apparition on May 7, 1985, Our Lady confided to Ivanka the 10th secret and told her that she would have an apparition once a year on the anniversary of the apparitions. It was that way also this year.
The apparition, which lasted 4 minutes, took place at Ivanka’s family home. Only Ivanka’s family was present at the apparition. After the apparition, Ivanka said: "Our Lady gave us her motherly blessing."

July 02, 2014
"Dear children, I, the mother of all of you gathered here and the mother of the entire world, am blessing you with a motherly blessing and call you to set out on the way of humility. That way leads to the coming to know the love of my Son. My Son is almighty, He is in everything. If you, my children, do not become cognizant of this, then darkness/blindness rule in your soul. Only humility can heal you. My children, I always lived humbly, courageously and in hope. I knew, I became cognizant that God is in us and we are in God. I am asking the same of you. I desire for all of you to be with me in eternity, because you are a part of me. I will help you on your way. My love will envelop you like a mantle and make of you apostles of my light - of God's light. With the love that comes forth from humility you will bring light to where darkness/blindness rule. You will be bringing my Son who is the light of the world. I am always alongside your shepherds and I pray that they may always be an example of humility for you. Thank you."
07/02/2014

July 25, 2014
"Dear children! You are not aware of the graces that you are living at this time in which the Most High is giving you signs for you to open and convert. Return to God and to prayer, and may prayer begin to reign in your hearts, families and communities, so that the Holy Spirit may lead and inspire you to every day be more open to God's will and to His plan for each of you. I am with you and with the saints and angels intercede for you. Thank you for having responded to my call."
07/25/2014

August 02, 2014
"Dear children, the reason that I am with you, my mission, is to help you for 'good' to win, even though this does not seem possible to you now. I know that you do not understand many things as I also did not understand everything, everything that my Son explained to me while He was growing up alongside me - but I believed Him and followed Him. I ask this of you also, to believe me and to follow me. However, my children, to follow me means to love my Son above everything, to love Him in every person without making differences. For you to be able to do this, I call you anew to renunciation, prayer and fasting. I am calling you for the Eucharist to be the life of your soul. I am calling you to be my apostles of light who will spread love and mercy through the world. My children, your life is only a blink in contrast to eternal life. And when you come before my Son, in your hearts He will see how much love you had. In order to spread love in the right way, I am asking my Son, through love, to grant you unity through Him, unity among you, unity between you and your shepherds. Through them my Son always gives Himself to you anew and renews your soul. Do not forget this. Thank you."

believe it or not... sometimes when i post images associated with the Blessed Virgin Mary and some messages from Our Lady (just like this post), my computer will either switch off immediately (just like what just happened now)...or... i will encounter an internet connection problem...or... something which i can't see will try to scare the crap out of me. i thought my month-long spiritual battle was over until i posted the images of the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary a few days ago. at noon time that day, i heard my innerself praying in Latin (the prayer of the Benedictine Medal). i pray this prayer but i haven't really memorized it yet. i just followed my instincts and prayed along with that inner voice i heard. [the last time i heard this inner voice was on 3 consecutive Sunday masses prior to the implementation of the New Roman Missal. it mentioned clearly certain parts of the Nicene Creed (the one we're using now) while i was saying the old version of the Apostles Creed during the holy mass. i don't know/understand why. this voice was soft and gentle. i couldn't seem to recognize if it's male or female. it sounded youthful and genderless. i do not have any ministry in church so i do not know anything about the new format/version of the holy mass during that time.] anyhow, by night time i attended the evening mass and posted the images of the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary late night. i had a hard time sleeping... by 4am, i woke up extremely scared (my entire body was shaking like crazy... i've never felt that scared in my entire life. in the old days, the only reason for my body to shake was winter chills but we don't have winter here in our country.) and then heard heavy footsteps on my ceiling as if a bigfoot was walking heavily all over it. we have no attic so there's no way a person could walk upright in our ceiling. after i prayed and put on the Rosary, i was able to sleep again. at first, i thought the noise were caused by sneaking burglars. by morning, i found out that i was the only one who heard it. the noise was caused by a negative entity... then i realized... whatever it is, it hates the Blessed Virgin Mary big time. God protect me!

the cenacle of prayer did help protect and prepare me for a spiritual battle (with some crazy negative spirits which were not affected by cleansing prayer) which i have encountered on 29 June 2014 (Sun). it lasted for almost a month (i think..). i feel so blessed that everything happened at the right time. even if i think i am fine now, i still think i'm in constant battle. i had no idea about spiritual preparation prior to supporting a formation as a prayer warrior except that i need to go to confession. i just wanted to help others without being known/seen...in my own little way.

well, i found out yesterday (27 Aug., Wed), that it was possible that during the time that i was in the prayer room, one of the participants got slain twice at noon time on the third day of the formation. this participant had high blood pressure and was rushed to the nearest clinic a day prior (second day of the formation). he was recommended to go home but he insisted to continue with the formation/retreat. the organizers of that event closely monitored his health status. on the third day of the formation, someone asked me and another person if we could go to the prayer room to fill in for the next hour. during the time when i was praying the part when i commanded the holy waters of their baptism to flow back to the participants, as an intercessor, i saw a short vision of an endless horizon of water which later on moved upwards. after that i felt i released a strong energy through the top of my head... the next hour, i attempted to pray the intercessory prayers (by reading it) alone while my prayer partner looked for some people to replace us. my friend saw the sick participant got slain without being approached by the priest during that time. he got up and got slain again. he cried aloud when he got up this time because he saw a vision of his dead parents inviting him to join them (negative entities posing as his parents..). he didn't want to go with them... i got scared when i learned this as the spirits that had clung to me that day were really heavy. i felt them pulling my shoulders downwards and they were trying to give me a fever (after praying, i ate lunch and felt like i was having a mild fever. what surprised me was that after i took a 500mg paracetamol, my body temperature increased. i felt i had a fever. it got worst when i got closer to the venue where the spiritual activity/formation was. i was not the only one who had a fever that day. i don't know why i brought 3 tablets of 500mg paracetamol that day. i usually would bring only 1 or 2 tablets. surprisingly, two other people fell ill with fever like myself. i know one them just came out of the prayer room...). i am blessed to be able to detect these negative spirits within me immediately. i consulted a shepherd and got prayed over by a pastoral elder. i felt 1 or 2 spirits leave my physical or spiritual self. however, it didn't end there. as i left the venue of the formation, i felt a bit confused and uneasy while looking for some keys on my small bag. i decided to visit the nearest adoration chapel so that i may be able to cast out and blind all the negative entities that still may have clung to me. i requested a priest to pray over me and then i attended the next mass schedule. During Communion, as the Holy Eucharist traveled down my throat, it left a track of positive energy. it exploded when it reached my chest area pushing all the negative energies out of me. this positive energy felt like drinking a menthol-flavored mouthwash (like Listerine) but without the aftertaste. i observed after a few weeks...i request for a pray over whenever i feel like i'm being under attack by God's adversary. it seems like this spiritual battle in endless. i am so grateful for God and the Blessed Virgin Mary for protecting me!

i somehow found myself in the middle of a spiritual battle. my mobile didn't function on Sat and Sun (days when i confirmed to serve...my mobile notified me to "insert sim card". my mobile is old but it works fine but this message notification was crazy...i wasn't able to use it on Sat and Sun). i got a nasty migraine on Fri night and mild headache on Sat morning. all my these were gone after i served last Sat. i somehow absorbed some negative spirits/energies during the formation on Sun... these crazy negative spirits/energies were capable of causing a fever (i thought i had a mild fever-> i took paracetamol -> after an hour or so it suddenly escalated into a fever. after a few minutes, my left and right shoulders were becoming really heavy...felt like a couple of invisible crazy gorillas were pushing my shoulders downwards on each side. it felt really heavy inside. unbelievable! this happened when i went to the area where the spiritual activity/formation was being conducted. i shared this with a shepherd then i got prayed-over by someone from the pastoral level. these really heavy negative spirits have left me already. i felt these spirits as they left my body. Thank God!!!), confusion (it took a while for me to find our house keys inside my small bag...), quenchless thirst (after the formation, i've decided to go visit the nearest adoration chapel. while i was on the way to church, i felt like only a fire hydrant could quench my thirst... sounds crazy but true. i drank a bit of water but to no avail... i was too thirsty. after visiting the adoration chapel, i requested a priest to pray over me and then i attended Holy Mass again for a second time on the same day... this was intended for a special spiritual cleansing reason. during the Communion Rite, the Sacred Host released via an explosion-like feeling as i ate it... it somehow burst/exploded into a very positive menthol-like light energy/feeling in the far end of my throat in my chest area then it spread to my internal body parts...pushing the negative energies out of my body. i felt like i ate a tasteless menthol-flavored Listerine mouthwash biscuit/wafer. after the Holy Mass, i no longer feel thirsty. it was quenched by the Sacred Host.), and something which i can't see seem to wake me up at 3am for an entire week (since the day i confirmed my support to the said formation...)... good thing it didn't happen yesterday (Fri) after i got prayed-over again by another priest. i hope it will not happen again. it's been a week now and it's been a pretty tough battle... the air i breathe now feels so fresh like a tasteless menthol. the air here is polluted. i went to church and to the mall today. the air feels so fresh and light like a tasteless menthol. this feeling lasted only overnight (approx. 24hrs...). if you know me, kindly include me in your prayers. thank you!

God is good all the time!!!
