The First Apparition of Fatima

“All dressed in white, more brilliant than the sun,” Our Lady appeared to the

three children on 13 May, 1917:

“I have come to ask you to come here for six months in succession, on

the 13th day, at this same hour. Later on, I will tell you who I am and

what I want,” she said. “Are you willing to offer yourselves to God

to bear all the sufferings He wants to send you, as an act of

reparation for the sins by which He is offended, and for the

conversion of sinners?” They were. “You are then going to have

much to suffer, but the grace of God will be your comfort.”

Rogation Day (The Lesser Litanies)



Scotland: Holy Day of Obligation (Eng. & Wales: Traditional)

Start Novena to the Holy Ghost



June

SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY

Explanatory Note for

15 & 23 June:

The Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England & Wales have moved the Obligation for Corpus Christi to 18 June. Also, as the Feast of the Sacred Heart (23 June) is a Novus Ordo Solemnity, present Abstinence rules do not apply;

however, traditional Abstinence rules would only have been

suspended for a Holy Day of Obligation which this is not. Similarly applied in Scotland.

The Tuy Vision

On 13 June 1929, Sr Lucy was praying in the chapel of her convent in Tuy,

Spain. “Suddenly, the whole chapel lit up with a supernatural light and on

the altar appeared a cross of light which reached the ceiling,” she writes. She

saw a vision of the Holy Trinity and the Blessed Sacrament. Our Lady of

Fatima appeared, showing her Immaculate Heart. “The moment has come,” she

said, “in which God asks the Holy Father to make, in union with all the bishops of

the world, the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart, promising to save it

by this means. So numerous are the souls which the justice of God condemns for sins

committed against me, that I come to ask for reparation. Sacrifice yourself for this

intention and pray.”
