The 14 Fatima
Resolutions
During the Second Fatima Conference of
Catholic Bishops for World Peace, an overwhelming number of the bishops,
priests and laypeople present agreed to 14 Resolutions for implementing Our
Lady's requests in order to bring about the peace She promised the world at
Fatima. These resolutions were formulated and undertaken after a week of prayer
and preparation by attendees and speakers at the Conference held in Mexico City
in November 1994 under the patronage of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
1. WE the
undersigned individual laypeople, priests, and bishops, in our personal
capacity, hereby profess our loyalty to the Holy Roman Catholic Magisterium and
the august person of His Holiness Pope John Paul II and above all to the
Catholic Faith as handed down by the dogmatic councils, tradition, and the
approved creeds, not limited to but including the Apostle's Creed, the Nicene
Creed, the Athanasian Creed, the Creed of the First Vatican Council and the
Credo of the people of God of Pope Paul VI and those doctrines taught
Magisterially by the Second Vatican Council.
2. WE as loyal Roman
Catholics, as expressed above in resolution number one, also believe that world
peace will not be brought about except through obedience to the full meaning
and message of Our Lady of Fatima.
3. WE undertake to do
what we can and we believe it is part of our duty of state to bring about the
Triumph of the Immaculate Heart through the specific plans and requests She
made to us in the public and prophetic Message of Fatima.
4. IT is our duty
according to our state to do all we can and tell those we can to thereby make
the full message of Our Lady of Fatima known as Jesus Himself has commanded,
despite any difficulties.
5. WE the undersigned,
mindful of Our Lady of Fatima's request, undertake to personally pray the
Rosary every day and to strongly promote this devotion to Our Lady, to those
around us.
6. WE the undersigned,
mindful of Our Lady of Fatima's request that we, each of us, wear the Brown
Scapular of Mount Carmel, undertake to personally wear the Scapular and to
promote the Brown Scapular among the faithful and men of goodwill that God puts on our
path.
7. WE the undersigned,
recognizing that Our Lady of Fatima and God Himself want to establish devotion
in the world to the Immaculate Heart of Mary; and further recognizing that Our
Lady and Our Lord especially want us to embrace this devotion; we therefore,
personally undertake to make the personal act of consecration to Our Lady's
Immaculate Heart. We will also promote it to those God puts on our path.
8. SINCE Jesus and Mary
have so ardently desired the practice of the 5 First Saturdays and Communions
of Reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, we personally undertake to do
these Five First Saturdays as requested and explained by Our Lady of Fatima and
Jesus Himself. We also undertake to promote the Five First Saturdays to the
faithful Catholics God puts on our path.
9. SINCE Our Lady of
Fatima wants the Third Secret to be published to the world, we the undersigned,
until it is officially revealed, will endeavor to read, study and distribute
knowledge of the Third Secret - from the best sources available.
10. WE also respectfully
petition for the release of the actual words of Our Lady's Third Secret
according to Her instructions.
11. SINCE Jesus and Mary
in the Fatima Message make it clear that it is only by means of the solemn and
public Consecration of specifically RUSSIA to the Immaculate Heart of
Mary by all the Catholic bishops together with the Holy Father on the same day
at the same hour, that true peace will be given to the world; we the
undersigned undertake to bring about the long desired Act of Consecration. Such
actions (to cause this Act of Consecration) are not limited to, but may
include: Prayers; Rosaries; Sacrifices offered to Jesus and Mary for this
intention; to attend seminars, symposiums, conferences; to hold such
conferences to promote this Consecration; to circulate books, videos, audio
tapes to laypeople, priests and bishops to promote this Consecration.
12. WE the undersigned,
will strive to make known those prophecies that as far as we can ascertain,
contain parts of the 3rd Secret which are found in Sacred Scripture and in
Church approved apparitions, as Cardinal Ratzinger indicated in his interview
with Vittorio Messori, published in November 1984 "Jesus" Magazine.
13. INASMUCH as God wants
all men to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth, and inasmuch as in
an approved apparition of Our Lady of 1838, Our Lady revealed the Green
Scapular of the Immaculate Heart of Mary especially for the preservation and
the spread of the Catholic Faith to non-Catholics; and inasmuch as God wants to
establish devotion to the Immaculate Heart throughout the world; we the
undersigned resolve when opportune to propagate as widely as possible among
men, women and children of the world, the Green Scapular and encourage others
to do the same and to pray the prayer indicated therein for the conversion of
all non-Catholics and the preservation of all Catholics in the Catholic faith
which is so necessary in order to save one's soul.
14. THAT in the light of
our desire to please Our Lady, that the Consecration of Russia be renewed on
the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, December 8th, each year by the Pope and
all the Catholic Bishops of the world; we the undersigned, respectfully ask for
this Consecration of Russia to be done on the above date.
