"Not to oppose error, is to approve of it,
Not to defend truth is to suppress it,
and indeed to neglect to confound evil men,
when we can do it,
is no less a sin than to encourage them. "

       In this issue you will find articles defending Our Lady of Fatima, Our Holy Father, Father Gruner, the International Fatima Rosary Crusade and the Faith. Yes, in North America, it has even become necessary to defend our Holy Catholic Faith itself.

       As Christ Himself was persecuted by His very own, still today Christ, Our Lady, our Faith and those who persevere in the Faith are persecuted even by "our very own" inside the Church.

       It is not primarily in defense of Father Gruner and this Apostolate that we must clarify the truth. The stakes are much, much higher than that.

       It is the freedom and salvation of the entire world that is in jeopardy here.

       We must be aware of the intent behind the various modes of persecution which are cunningly used to stop Father Gruner and this Apostolate. It is not Father Gruner and this Fatima Apostolate which the devil and his henchmen are so bent on stopping.

       No! It is Our Lady Herself and Her extremely urgent full Fatima Message which the devil seeks to silence.

       The devil is very well aware that the consecration of Russia will crush him. Her heel shall crush the serpent's head (see Genesis 3:15).

       With the Queen of Angels leading us, we must arm ourselves with our Scapulars and our Rosaries, prepare ourselves with Prayer, the Sacraments and sacrifice to engage in battle against the devil.

       We must unite to defend all that is Holy. We must follow God's plan of mercy given to us at Fatima. We must redouble our efforts.

       We must work and sacrifice, petition for and pray for the consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary before it is too late for millions of souls whose salvation hangs in the balance Now!
