Mary and Jesus speak as one through the Fatima and Divine Mercy Messages
Soon after St. Maria Faustina Kowalska was led by an Angel to the chasms of hell, she wrote about what she saw in her Diary, so that she might tell souls about it and testify to its existence. Like St. Jacinta Marto, she was so overwhelmed and horrified at how terribly souls suffer there, she dedicated herself to praying fervently for the conversion of sinners and incessantly pleading for God’s mercy on them.
These Times call for Greater Sacrifice and Reparation
As Lent approaches, one begins to let go of the celebratory Christmas season and all the feasting that comes with it and settle into a new season of penance.

The Promise of Devotions: Not Just Checking a Box
There are many devotions that have promises connected with them. One popular example is the recitation of the prayer of St. Gertrude for the deceased, especially during the month of November. It is said that 1,000 souls are released from purgatory each time it is prayed. Likewise, whenever we pass a cemetery, we offer this prayer for the holy souls: “Eternal Father, I offer thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son Jesus in union with all the Masses said throughout the world today for all the holy souls in purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal Church for those in my home and within my family, Amen”. While we cannot guarantee the release of these suffering souls or the conversion of sinners, we nevertheless continue to pray and to hope.
A Mile for Mary: A Walk of Love, Reparation, and Hope
“A Mile for Mary” is a prayerful procession offered in love and reparation—a way to console the hearts of the Blessed Mother and Her Son, Jesus. In a world that often feels loud, confusing, and indifferent to faith, this procession becomes a peaceful act of unity—bringing hope, prayer, and presence into the streets.
