This Saturday, 7 May, is the first Saturday of May, and so may want to engage in the Fatima Five First Saturdays devotion.
This devotion was revealed by Our Lady to the seers of Fatima in July 1917, and more fully explained to Sr Lucia in December 1925. The Blessed Virgin appeared with the Child Jesus and told Sr Lucia the details of the First Saturdays devotion, as follows, promising:-
"to assist at the hour of death, with all the graces necessary for
salvation, all those who, on the first Saturday of five consecutive
months go to confession and receive Holy Communion, recite five decades
of the Rosary and keep me company for a quarter of an hour while
meditating on the mysteries of the Rosary, with the intention of making
reparation to me."
This is a wonderful promise and great grace, and so if you haven't already done the Fatima Five First Saturdays, please consider starting this month!
