Appendix V
The 14 Fatima
Resolutions
I/We hereby agree to the
Resolutions drafted and agreed to by the bishops, priests and laypeople at the
Second Bishops Conference for World Peace held in Mexico City on November 8-14,
1994 as indicated below. I, the undersigned, in my personal capacity,
responding to the inspiration of Our Lady of Fatima to work for peace, have
read the resolutions that I have signed and agree with each one’s
doctrinal content and personally undertake to see that truth contained in each
resolution be lived and any undertaking stated therein I shall personally
do.
In order to bring about peace
and proper ordering of man to God as individuals, in society and in the Church,
I hereby make the following resolutions and encourage men and women of good
will around the world to join us.
1. We the undersigned
individual laypeople, priests, 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.
"Magisterially" — That
is, those doctrines that are taught infallibly by the Ordinary and Universal
Magisterium of the Church in Vatican II documents.
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 of Mary 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 Five 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, 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 among Catholics 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.
