Ever wondered how a Buddhist woman, a young bishop, and a rosary walk into a podcast? Tune in to our latest episode for a divine mix of faith, history, and a dash of conspiracy. Spoiler: It's more gripping than your favorite thriller! #CatholicPodcast #FaithJourney



Starting with several listener requests, S.R.M. asked "how to have hope today?" and J.D. asked "what's the real Akita Message?" And yours truly is still scratching his head why a 60 year old news story is suddenly a headline in the AP newswire again...



News Story That was Out of Place: AP headline July 21, 2024: Vatican’s Pius XII archives shed light on another contentious chapter: The Legion of Christ scandal



The story covers the sudden restoration of Maciel from an investigation by Cardinal Ottaviani (the real Ottaviani Intervention) that was going to end Maciel's drugs addiction, pedophilia, perverse mockery of the faith in the 1950's. The article misses HOW, though: it was a cash stuffed envelope handed to the carmenlengo during the interregnum... bribery!



Other documents released this past week show a connection between Cardinal electors and the US Dpt of State... meaning something fishy is afoot. Worse, the Podesta email becomes relevant again (time for a Catholic "springtime" (CIA euphemism for color revolution/coup)).



On Akita, we draw parallels to Fatima (eucharistic catechism by an angel, messages from Our Lady, and miracles), and draw out the differences in time ==> Akita happened after the Japanese Bishops applied for and were granted an indult for Communion in the Hand... Obviously, Our Lady does not approve. Also highlighted is Bishop Ito, and some special purposes for which he founded the convent that highlight the need to end Communion in the hand.



How to have hope? The odd news, the traction of events that seem to be pointing to events imminent that will out the corruption. Maybe it can be extracted without the Fire from Heaven.



Meanwhile, nothing has been done to remedy this disrespect for and demonic attack upon the Blessed Sacrament, and it looks like the Eucharistic Revival isn't helping at all.



Back in the 80's and 90's everyone in the American Church was fine criticizing the Holy Father... in fact, it was encouraged and nearly expected. Why is it different today?



All of it served with a healthy reminder to pray your rosary! It's truly our best weapon in all of this, but more importantly, it appears things are coming to a head!

News this week that Tucchio Kissio, the Prefect for some new curial office erstwhile known as Doctrine and Faith, you know, the guy that wrote the “Theology of Kissing” and is trying to emulate the “porno theologians” of the 70s, as Fr. Cornelio Fabrio called them… So Smoochio has exercised the power given him by Francis to haul Vigano into court.



General news report at LifeSite.




Last June, Pope Francis went so far as to praise Luther — once deemed a heretic by the Catholic Church — as a great reformer.



On his flight back to Rome from Armenia, the pope told reporters: "The church was not a role model, there was corruption, there was worldliness, there was greed, and lust for power. He protested against this. And he was an intelligent man."
Oct 16, 2016 NPR report on Pope Francis praising Martin Luther.



How can Pope Francis now prosecute Vigano for doing what he praised Luther for? or... How can Francis praise archenemy of God, Martin Luther, a schismatic and a half, and yet pretend to prosecute Vigano? (while ignoring Rupnik, and the multitude of turpitide)

If you've ever wondered why the Miracle of the Sun was what Our Lady chose for the finale to Fatima, then this podcast is for you -- from the Errors of Russia and the symbols of the enemies of God, she was sending a message, Old Testament style. Even down to the Egyptian and like Moses battling Pharaoh's priests -- the Miracle of the Sun is rich with symbolism.



00:00 - Like a Horse head left in the bed -- the message is clear



01:27 - Natural Sun Worship of the Druids was not ceased, but rolled into Freemasonry




Freemasonry's most virulent offspring - International Communism — moved Pope Pius XI to issue his Encyclical Divini Redemptoris on March 19, 1937.



It is virtually beyond dispute that, in the words of the present Librarian of Congress, James Billington, "the modern revolutionary tradition…grew out of occult Freemasonry." Billington, in his seminal book on revolution, Fire in The Minds of Men, traces communism from Illuminism through the Masonic lodges, and states that the first apostle of modern communism, Giuseppe Buonarotti (a descendent of the famous genius of art, Sculpture and architecture, formulated his blueprint for a new society of revolutionary republicans in "the Masonic lodges of Geneva." Billington recalls that Thomas Paine, after his return to America from Revolutionary France, wrote An Essay on the Origin of Free Masonry, in which he "insisted that the natural sun worship of the Druids had not been destroyed but merely diverted into Masonry."
Fisher, Paul A. Their God is the Devil: A Study of Papal Encyclicals and Freemasonry. (1991). p 54- (emphasis added)



there's more to this that I skipped over in the podcast... this concept of DECHRISTIANIZATION ties into the similar DEHELENIZATION much later in the podcast...




In his Encyclical, Pius recalled communism's early gestation Period: "Ever since the days when groups of intellectuals" were formed in an arrogant attempt to free civilization from the bonds of morality and religion, Our Predecessors overtly and explicity drew the attention of the world to the consequences of the deChristianization of human society."



His Holiness was referring to those long series of encyclical an other Papal documents earlier cited in this work which warned of the dangers of the new atheistic philosophers, and particularly their conspiracies hatched against the Church in the lodges Freemasonry.
cont. Fisher, supra. (emphasis added)



03:41 - Errors of Russia are Solar Worship cults (and communism is their offspring)



10:01 - 1916 Solar Cult Grove and Magic Circle Dedicated in United States



This has been mentioned before for other purposes, but the 68th Convocation of the Order of the Rose Cross... Magic Solar Cult Workings in the US... consecrated a grove -- right when the angel started appearing to the children in Fatima.



The book can be seen here Fundamental Laws: A Report of the 68th Convocation of the Rose Cross Order.





















19:31 - Ancient Rites of Osiris - Russian Magi at the occult working in the US

It is the 90s all over again - but despite the smoke of prophecy-mania afflicting us today, there are some curious prophecies from Anne Catherine Emmerich and commentary by Yves DuPont, as well as some quotes from Masonic sources in 1955 conspire to make strange explanations of the Lutheran Synodality we see making democratic "collegiality" in the Vatican today. But why is the Synod silent on things Catholics are concerned about?



01:32 - Intro - Reliving the 90s -- Prophecy MANIA!



02:42 - Fatima - we had THE IMPRESSION it was the Holy Father



06:09 - Two Popes - Yves DuPont Catholic Prophecy




Ven. Anne de la Foi. "There will be discord within the Catholic Church. In those days, men will wear women's clothes, and women will put on men's clothes."



82. M. Porsat (19th century). "There will be confusion among the clergy."



83. Quoted by Abbe Curicque (19th century). "What caught my attention repeatedly is that a large number of priests will join in the revolution."
DuPont, Yves, Catholic Prophecy: The Coming Chastisement. TAN Books 1973.




Oba Prophecy. "It will come when the Church authorities issue directives to promote a new cult, when priests are forbidden to celebrate in any other, when the higher positions in the Church are given to perjurers and hypocrites, when only the renegades are admitted to occupy those positions."
DuPont, Yves, Catholic Prophecy: The Coming Chastisement. TAN Books 1973.







The Two Popes of Anne Catherine Emmerich



16:18 - DuPont Citing Anne Catherine Emmerich - New Church built on Reason, Pope in Exile, Fake Pope in Office




May 13, 1820. "I saw also the relationship between the two popes… I saw how baleful would be the consequences of this false church. I saw it increase in size; heretics of every kind came into the city (of Rome). The local clergy grew lukewarm, and I saw a great darkness… Then, the vision seemed to extend on every side. Whole Catholic communities were being oppressed, harassed, confined, and deprived of their freedom. I saw many churches close down, great miseries everywhere, wars and bloodshed. A wild and ignorant mob took to violent action. But it did not last long.”
Id.




Sept. 12, 1820. "I saw a strange church being built against every rule… No angels were supervising the building operations. In that church, nothing came from high above… There was only division and chaos. It is probably a church of human creation, following the latest fashion, as well as the new heterodox church of Rome, which seems of the same kind.



53.4 "I saw again the strange big church that was being built there (in Rome). There was nothing holy in it. I saw this just as I saw a movement led by Ecclesiastics to which contributed angels, saints and other Christians. But there (in the strange big church) all the work was being done mechanically (ie. according to set rules and formulae). Everything was being done according to human reason.



53.5 "I saw all sorts of people, things, doctrines, and opinions. There was something proud, presumptuous, and violent about it, and they seemed to be very successful. I did not see a single Angel nor a single saint helping in the work. But far away in the background, I saw the seat of a cruel people armed with spears, and I saw a laughing figure which said: 'Do build it as solid as you can; we will pull it to the ground.' "
Id.



Dupont himself interprets the above, and makes these observations:




From this prophecy, it is clear that the true Church will be faithful to the Pope in exile [B...

Last episode, we discussed game theory but never got to the point of it.  Now, we discuss that the Vatican had hired McKinsey & Co to "modernize communications".  McKinsey uses game theory to help their clients find the best path to navigate a market and uses consensus management to help companies move from point A to point B through competition and diverse market forces, especially to overcome reasonable criticism.  Well, that's what we see happening in the Synod.  We discuss the USCCB Synod Synthesis and see that we really are being gamed!

28:13 - Welcoming means eliminating repentance?  Oh, wait -- it means YOU shut your mouth

Let's sit down and chat about this mess today, and how we've come to the end of the modernist climb and marxist normalization of the Church. The "listening church" of synodality appears to be nothing more than an enactment of Richard McBrien's Catholicism.  How the shock cycle of media today seems to feed the balkanization of Catholics, the use of "defending the pope" as brown shirts, the calumnies used to marginalize Catholics that just want to be left alone, the weaponized petitions, and how it all started.  Voices of the battles of the 80's had better analysis, but today's voices seem to miss a lot.  Much of the harshest things we hear about today were done already by American Bishops decades ago, back then there was recourse to Rome...  but what's different today is Rome isn't listening.  Our Lady told us at Akita...

Pope Francis is reported to have said that we should not make a battlefield of the liturgy.  Because he complains of Catholics hanging on to outdated things and old ideas, it is like he is saying that people who want a united and sacred liturgy (traditionalists or trads) disrupt the purpose of liturgy...  who are the real combatants?  why is this deja vu?  and what did Father Hardon say we can do about it?

Jesus hated compromised clergy and look this week at what they did to Him. As promised last time, this episode we discuss the Third Secret of Fatima in light of the situation in the Church today. Good priests and Bishops must tow the party line (or suffer the consequences) while those under kompromat are advanced. It is like the Gospels of Palm Sunday where the people - under the pressure of the compromised clergy of the Scribes and Pharisees go from "Hosanna" to "Crucify Him". Also discussed are how the laity are turned against Vigano and Schneider, who each have legitimate questions, but are pushed to the margins like Nicodemus. The Scribes and Pharisees of then are like the soldiers in the Church today that force good priests and bishops to be quiet or get sent away. Our Lady's remedy as well.

This past Friday, on the Solemnity of the Annunciation, Pope Francis performed a Consecration of Russia and Ukraine to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. While this is a laudable act, is it what Our Lady Asks of us today? Looking at the second secret of Fatima itself, actual history, and the message of Akita, it appears that we are not doing what she wants... and we are paying for it. We'll hear what priests said of the consecration before Gruner ever spr

Cincinnati’s past ignoring heterodoxy and heresy have caught up to it as Archbishop Schnurr rolls out a PR consultant led “Beacons of Light” crisis communications program designed to steer public opinion, but there is a much better (and far cheaper) way he could be fixing the problem instead of papering it over.

Continuing the discussion on informed consent, Catholic morality, and medical "mandates" in the midst of media mayhem sowing fear and misinformation.



Pointers on how the military personnel can escape the mandate: the Secretary of Defense has only mandated the Comirnaty vaccine. Problem is that the Comirnaty vaccine is not available anywhere.



Today’s Gospel.  Jesus asked the Apostles what the current polling data showed - what the surveys said. People don’t know the truth.  Peter only got it right because the Holy Spirit revealed it to him.



McLuhan — all the media is engaged in a luciferian conspiracy against the truth.



We see the passion play out in this today.  The crowd that had been praising Our Lord suddenly turned on Him on Good Friday and chanted for His crucifixion.



How did the Cardinals do what Biden wanted a month before Biden mandated?



All these diocese with similar language?  who gave it to them?



Informed Consent is impossible right now. 



Another study has appeared on the NIH, this one determining that vaccine recipients are not being informed of the risk:



COVID‐19 vaccines designed to elicit neutralising antibodies may sensitise vaccine recipients to more severe disease than if they were not vaccinated.Cardozo,, T and Veazey, R., Informed consent disclosure to vaccine trial subjects of risk of COVID‐19 vaccines worsening clinical disease, Int. J of Clinical Practice (March 2021, published online Dec 4 2020). https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7645850/

So, when you are doing your moral diligence to the Fifth Commandment and evaluating the Benefits and Risks of Alternatives to care, as well as the benefits of risks of doing nothing, consider that the shot may permanently impair you.



FDA did NOT Approve "Pfizer" -- Only Comirnaty



Lawsuit filed by Children’s Health Defense Network reveals the shenanigans of the FDA.   There is no “Comirnaty” vaccine available.  Lawsuit alleges that FDA is facilitating Pfizer to claim approval status while hiding behind the liability shield.



* Here’s Why No One Can Force You to Take Pfizer’s Newly ‘Approved’ Comirnaty Vaccine (Children's Health Defense Network)



Military Precision Should Be Used



Military personnel should take note:  the Sec of Defense memo only mandated the Comirnaty vaccine.  If the vial doesn’t say “Comirnaty”, then it’s not mandated.  Ask your Commanding officer to verify if Comirnaty is available in your unit.  If not, point out that the Secretary’s mandate does not apply to any other vaccine.



My Body, My Choice. Use it, own it.  We’ve gotten the pro-choices to back off that label because it makes sense when someone is forcing foreign matter into your body.



DISPARATE TREATMENT

Part 2 of the discussion on Catholic moral teaching on medical treatments, your strict duty to avoid harmful/deadly activity, and Title VII protections of your religious beliefs.  How to express your religious exemption.

The beginning of a discussion on Bishops acting as doctors and mandating that employees and clergy undergo health procedures. The USCCB provides Catholic moral principles for health care decisions that firmly place such decisions with the patient.



We look at Cardinal Cupich's statement and mandate, but there are others. As reported in the news:



“We have made this decision convinced that this is the best way to stop the spread of this deadly illness,” Cardinal Blase J. Cupich, archbishop of Chicago, said in a Thursday email to clergy and staff. “Following the lead of Pope Francis, we encourage everyone to be vaccinated as an act of charity. … Religious exemptions to vaccination cannot be supported by Catholic teaching and I have instructed our pastors not to grant them.”Archdiocese of Chicago requires vaccines, denies religious exemptions. Crain's Chicago Business. 20 August 2021



Cardinal Cupich elsewhere says it is "an act of love" to get the shot. How can an act of love be so if it is mandated?



Audio Clips of Bishop Cupich speaking in 2012 on human dignity and the need to respect the health care decisions of the patient are in the podcast.



Relevant quotes from the USCCB statements on health care:



26. The free and informed consent of the person or the person’s surrogate is required for medical treatments and procedures, except in an emergency situation when consent cannot be obtained and there is no indication that the patient would refuse consent to the treatment.27. Free and informed consent requires that the person or the person’s surrogate receive all reasonable information about the essential nature of the proposed treatment and its benefits; its risks, side-effects, consequences, and cost; and any reasonable and morally legitimate alternatives, including no treatment at all.28. Each person or the person’s surrogate should have access to medical and moral information and counseling so as to be able to form his or her conscience. The free and informed health care decision of the person or the person’s surrogate is to be followed so long as it does not contradict Catholic principles....31. No one should be the subject of medical or genetic experimentation, even if it is therapeutic, unless the person or surrogate first has given free and informed consent. In instances of nontherapeutic experimentation, the surrogate can give this consent only if the experiment entails no significant risk to the person’s well-being. [...]32. While every person is obliged to use ordinary means to preserve his or her health, no person should be obliged to submit to a health care procedure that the person has judged, with a free and informed conscience, not to provide a reasonable hope of benefit without imposing excessive risks and burdens on the patient or excessive expense to family or community.33. The well-being of the whole person must be taken into account in deciding about any therapeutic intervention or use of technology. Therapeutic procedures that are likely to cause harm or undesirable side-effects can be justified only by a proportionate benefit to the patient.Ethical and Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Services, Sixth Edition USCCB



For reference and comparison:



“These COVID vaccines are preventing clinical disease, we don't know if they prevent transmission,” Dr.

The Assumption is the doctrine that Our Lord came to take Mary BODY and SOUL to Heaven. Because of her Immaculate Conception, and spotless life, her Body was pure also. She was able to avoid the three D's of the end of life: Death, Decay, and Delay.



We live in a world that think defilement and mutilation of the body is not just fine, but preferred. Perversions and all manner of things that debase the body are encouraged today. Yet, Our Lady's example tells us that Our Lord is coming for us -- body and soul -- for our own assumption someday.



Tweets Reporting the news that Cardinal Burke is on a ventilator due to COVID



Backlash to the news that Cardinal Burke has been hospitalized have people gloating that he did not take the jab. Cardinal Burke was not comfortable have the product of aborted fetal tissue placed INSIDE his body. Yet, people think he is suffering for that choice. For all we know, the jab might have killed him -- there is plenty of data that it can.



Our choices of what we do to our bodies is to be made voluntarily with informed consent. Information on the risks and benefits of the jab are withheld or even being exaggerated. Meanwhile, information about alternatives that may well be more effective and safer are being suppressed.



As Catholics, we should uphold informed consent and demand to be given reliable and true information about all treatments, especially so individuals can make informed consent decisions for their own.



Some Catholics are unaware of the therapeutics and believe that the jab is the only solution. They are misinformed or uninformed. That's sad. From this, they make false claims that the vaccine may be an "act of charity" -- the end cannot justify the means.



example of a Catholic making the argument that taking contraception is an act of charity.



Pray for Cardinal Burke!

We'll explore the uncanny use of the word "unity" in the motu proprio Traditionis Custodes, the Pope's accompanying letter, Cardinal Cupich's July 2021 statement on the Motu Proprio, and how he used it in 2002 when he padlocked the Latin Mass parish out of their church for Easter Triduum, "as an invitation to be in unity with him."

Stunning news yesterday from Rome.Pope Francis acted swiftly to squash the enemies of the Church.



Immediately upon exiting his hospital stay where he was recovering from complex surgery, he asked for a pen. 



Sources close to the event say Pope Francis first words were, “I need a pen so I can sign this document.”



Experts say he intends to squash the greatest threat the Church has seen in over five. hundred Years!



Over to you, Sridakar



Thank you.  



We have obtained both documents signed by Pope Francis.  The first document is a letter wherein Pope Francis expresses sadness caused by abuses in the liturgy on all sides.  We thought this might pertain to an action against the modernists, or ending the abuse of lay ministers during Mass, or voiding the fraudulently obtained indult for  Communion in the hand.  No, the greatest threat is Latin Mass.  Pope Francis lashed out at Pope Benedict and shackled the latin mass back to his tight control by Vatican apparatchiks.



This is Sridakar Krishmaneranen, reporting for the Bellarmine Forum News.



WOW!  Thanks, Sridakar!



I’d have never guessed that the extraordinary action and force of a Motu Proprio would be merited for Latin Mass.  This left me with many questions, though.  I set out to learn what this document Pope Francis issued was.  I began to ask around and my questions led me to Professor Zbigniew Oszienski, Chair of the Theological Marian Akita Chair at Trent University 



—



PROFESSOR OZIENSKI



Yes, Thank you for calling.  I am glad you ask this question.  It is a pleasure to speak with the Bellarmine Forum



I have looked in my modern catholic dictionary and it has two definitions.



A MOTU PROPRIO refers to Words used in rescripts drawn up and issued by a pope on his own initiative, and not conditioned by any petitionary requests. The documents are always signed personally by a pope. 



The dictionary then tells me to See PROPRIO MOTU.



So, I turn the pages and find this second definition.



PROPRIO MOTU.  More commonly referred to as motu proprio. 



It means “Something done on one's own initiative or by one's own will.” 



Said especially of certain papal documents written on the Pope's own authority, often to meet a special and urgent need in the Church.



—



We’ve learned that Pope Francis surveyed Bishops around the world and asked them about the threat of Summorum Pontificorum — which made it clear that the Latin Mass is not divisive - that is in his words, having these two liturgies available to the faithful, the traditional latin mass and the new mass, “in no way lead to a division in the Church’s lex credendi”.  



Stunningly, we’ve found several persons who had opinions on this.

At this last USCCB meeting, the Spring 2021 meeting, setting the agenda resulted in a parliamentary question when a retired Bishop wished to add something to the agenda.  The parliamentarian is Archbishop Schnurr, the Archbishop of Cincinnati.



It was the spring meeting of the NCCB/USCCB in 1977 where the agenda discussion resulted in a parliamentary trick that removed a threshhold question from the motion to seek an indult for communion in the hand ... it happened at the hands of the then Archbishop of Cincinnati, Bernadin.



Comments from Bishops and Cardinals in 1977 said that the fraud employed to ram the Communion in the hand vote was a disobedience of bishops and opened an era of "selective discipline."



Today, the USCCB is discussing what to do about politician that are selectively obedient to Catholicism yet go to Holy Communion as if they were in full communion.



The problem began in 1977 and today's issue is precisely what those Cardinals and Bishops warned of.  The USCCB cannot fix the problem today without acknowledging the poison in the well caused by Bernadin's fraud!







Bernadin to Schnurr - Cincinnati - Parliamentary Points of Communion in the Hand and the Selective Discipline it Brung



In our last episode, I mentioned that something happened at the USCCB Spring meeting that seemed to have a providential rub to it.   You know what I’m talking about, right?  When a series of events just seems to have a little too much “coincidence” to be unnoticed.



Fr. Hardon used to say that you cannot believe in an all-powerful, all-knowing God and “chance or coincidence” at the same time. 



The episode before last, I mentioned that I thought that the Bishops should make a statement on Communion in the hand that “they made a mistake, and need to unwind it.”



I promised that I’d explain in this episode, so here I am.



You see, on the first day of the virtual meeting, Bishop Pfeifer, a retired bishop, asked if space on the agenda could be made to discuss the material support President Biden is giving to abortion and infanticide.  That this discussion was important to put into context what giving him Communion means.  God bless Bishop Emeritus Pfeifer.



There was a problem, though, so they consulted the parliamentarian.  I had no idea…  the parliamentarian is Archbishop Schnurr of Cincinnati…



AHA!



I was amazed.  You see, Cardinals Krol and Cardinal Carberry said that the US Bishops passed a “vote” on Communion in the hand because the threshold question had been bypassed through a parliamentary device.  A trick, if you will.



Do I need to remind you that the driver of vote was none other than Bernadin, Archbishop of Cincinnati?



To me, this little moment of coincidence made me want to point it out again…  that the problem we have in denying Holy Communion to a person who publicly supports Abortion and gives material aid to its propagation is precisely rooted in Communion in the hand…



I’ll explain, but I want to point this out:  To this day, the USCCB gives an award every year, titled the “Cardinal Bernardin New Leadership Award”



In their own words, the USCCB describes it:



The Cardinal Bernardin New Leadership Award, an activity of the Catholic Campaign for Human Development, recognizes the leadership, energy and diverse skills that young people bring to the anti-poverty work of low-income projects and Catholic parishes. The Cardinal Bernardin New Leadership Award high...

You will be surprised at this one thing that happened at the USCCB meeting -- and we have Archbishop Sample to thank for it.



Is this what Bishops are supposed to be doing?



Naturally, there was something dumb done right after Archbishop Sample spoke -- now some bishops want "They/them" inclusive language in sacramental texts.



Today's readings from Mass make a strong point that Modernists can't fathom -- God is real and even nature is obedient to Him!



Name one hymn produced by AmChurch that has been worth listening to, let alone merited universal acclaim.



GIA, who took way too long to remove Haas works, removes a composer for saying "arson is bad" - contrary to GIA's political support of protestors.



PROMISE FOR NEXT EPISODE: the one thing that happened at the USCCB meeting that was a fulfillment of my prophecy about the Communion in the Hand vote.  

On June 13, at Fatima, in 1917, Our Lady spoke to the children and introduced the Fatima Prayer said after each mystery of the Rosary.



She also told Sr. Lucy that she would spread devotion to her Immaculate Heart (yesterday's feast on the new calendar).



We take a stroll through history to see that Moscow was viewed to be the third Rome (after the collapse of Byzantium), that they crushed the Rosicrucian Napoleon through the Triumph of the Cross, and that they relied on Our Lady for help.



Rich in historical drama, the Tsar commissioned the building of the Christ Our Saviour Cathedral in Moscow 139 years after the revelation of the Sacred Heart in France.



France fell to the enemies of God because the King did not consecrate France to Him.



Russia crushed the anti-christ Napoleon by placing all of Russia and Moscow into the hands of Our Lord and the Blessed Mother's help...



To make it even richer in detail, Fatima occurred while the 68th Convocation of the Rose and Cross (Rosicrucians) consecrated a grove in Beverly Hall, Pennsylvania .  Among other things, they claim that they wish to reunite America with the Yucatan peninsula (where Aztec sacrifices occurred).



You won't see Russia and Fatima the same ...
