Too many facts reaching us at The Fatima Crusader tell us that we must warn you to be prepared for the worst, as we struggle to bring about the best.

       The worst is that our Pope and Bishops will not heed the Message of Our Lady of Fatima in time; that the laypeople will either give up their prayer and petition campaign even though they know it is our only hope, or alternatively they will be reduced to inaction and apathy by the false reasoning and lying, "facts" of those blind leaders of the blind. Those "foxes" who cry "peace, peace, when there is no peace." See Ezekiel 13.

       If this continues to happen, and the majority of bishops and laypeople are deceived by ignorance or lies into ignoring Our Lady of Fatima then no doubt the catastrophe that Our Lady spoke about will overtake us.

       Namely that the whole world including the United States and Canada will be enslaved by Communist Russia and entire nations (including possibly Canada and the USA) will be annihilated.

We Must Be Armed with Grace and Knowledge to Survive

       To help you and your loved ones survive, we work to make available to you more important survival information.

       The first is spiritual survival because that is what is most important. This is explained very well by Father Manelli and by St. Anthony Mary Claret. (See the articles "Devotion to Our Lady and the Salvation of Souls", "Our Duty to Separate from Occasions of Sin" and "The Brown Scapular Saves You from Hell").

       To help you see the enemy encroaching upon you and your temporal welfare in your everyday life we present to you some incisive analyses by Don McAlvany in "Apocalypse Now".

       And to help you prepare for the worst of physical dangers, particularly a Nuclear attack, we urge you to read the extracts from the book Nuclear War Survival Skills in "NUCLEAR WAR: Death or Survival".

       Lest you think we exaggerate these dangers, especially at this time, we urge you to consider some remarks of a Soviet Colonel on active duty in "Soviet Peace Overtures" and other facts as well (see "DANGER: Wake Up America!" and also "Military News").

       In the meantime, more and more people abandon the truth and grace of Christ, and the remnants of Christian civilization continue to lose their influence, all because of disobedience to God's holy Will, as manifested through the full Fatima Message.

       This is caused in part by the errors of Russia being spread into the very heart of some groups and persons who think they serve Our Lady of Fatima while they in fact empty it of its prophetic warnings and promises concerning world war and world peace. (See "The Fourth Secret (Fatima Kept Secret!)").

       But we must not be disheartened. We must do our duty to save souls and Christian civilization. We must work to spread the full Fatima Message and we urge you to do so too.

       The first part of our duty is to be informed and to act on that knowledge. The Third Secret, we know, refers to the dangers to our faith. See our letter sent to all the bishops in "Letter to the World's Bishops from the International Fatima Rosary Crusade". This letter briefly explains the importance and urgency of the Third Secret which is the key to the Church's surviving the 20th Century.

Our Holy Church Under Attack

       On this note we bring you some articles which show how the Church is under attack locally, from within the Church. See Father Trinchard's article "Some American Bishops Betray the Unborn" and Brother Natale's article on the attack on the Eucharist in "Communion in the Hand ... Why?".

       But let us lift up our hearts because Our Lady of Fatima has promised the final triumph. The article by Father Joseph Martinez outlines what the triumph of Our Lady's Immaculate Heart will mean. See his article "Has Russia Really Converted?" and the brief extract of Pope Leo XIII's encyclical in "The Rights of Jesus Christ Must be Publicly Recognized".

       When the plan of God for world peace and conversion is implemented, indeed we shall all rejoice. Meanwhile, vigilance, prayer, reparation and almsgiving, work and sacrifice are necessary in order to bring about the triumph of Our Lady's Immaculate Heart.

       Thank you for your support. One day the tide will turn. Let us be found watchful and at our posts. Our reward is great in Heaven even if we do not survive to see Our Lady's triumph here on Earth. We know it will come but we cannot promise ourselves that we will personally survive.

       We must stay close to God and Our Lady to make our election by God more certain. Let us do all we can by our Rosaries, our Communions of Reparation and our work and almsgiving. There is no greater cause on earth to fight for.

       Keep up the good fight, God will vindicate and reward us as we work and pray and sacrifice for Our Lady of Fatima.

       Father Nicholas Gruner
