|
| Restoration of The Church
|
| by Father Paul Kramer, B.Ph.,
S.T.B., M.Div., S.T.L. (Cand.) |
|
What is the best way to bring about the full
restoration of the old Faith and religion, integral and entire? As explained in
this article, it is by fulfilling Our Lady of Fatima's requests, which then
brings about the triumph of Her Immaculate Heart. |

| Holy Father, "Do Not Abandon
Russia!" |
| by Father V. |
|
This article is an urgent appeal to the Holy
Father from a Russian priest, asking the Pope not to abandon Russia. It was
sent to The Fatima Crusader so that it could get to the Holy Father, and
our office in Rome was able to accomplish this task. |

| A Missed
Opportunity |
| by Mark
Fellows |
|
In October 2000 the largest concentration of
bishops since the Second Vatican Council came to Rome to observe the Great
Jubilee. Though the Pope and 1500 bishops prayed the Pope's "Act of
Entrustment" of the future to Mary, absent were the words "consecration,"
"Russia," "Immaculate Heart," "conversion," "Fatima," and "eternal salvation,"
thus dashing the hopes of thousands around the world that the Pope and his
bishops would finally consecrate Russia to the Immaculate Heart of
Mary. |

| Mary Our Queen, Our Mother
of Mercy |
| by St. Alphonsus de
Liguori |
|
Our confidence in Mary should be great because She
is the Queen of Mercy. There is no doubt that Mary is a Queen. But are we aware
that She is a most sweet, a most merciful Queen, dedicated to the well-being of
sinners by seeking their conversion? |
|
| China: Present Day Threat to
World Peace |
| by Andrew M.
Cesanek |
|
Is the world enjoying that period of peace that is
to follow the Consecration of Russia to Mary's Immaculate Heart as Our Lady
promised? Or does the threat of world war loom on our horizon, with the real
potential of various nations being "annihilated"? This article provides
evidence that a growing threat of world war is coming from China, as that
country makes extensive military preparations (with Russia's
assistance). |
|
| Fatima Revered or
Reviled? |
| by John
Vennari |
|
This article is an analysis of what was released
on June 26, 2000 regarding the Third Secret of Fatima, especially concerning
the points that don't seem to make sense. This article also examines the
section of the Vatican's June 26 document on the Message of Fatima which states
that the Consecration of Russia has been accomplished and that, "... any
further discussion or request is without basis." |

| Father Gruner's Case now in
the Hands of the Holy Father |
| by Christopher A.
Ferrara |
|
Readers of The Fatima Crusader know that
for the past several years certain members of the Vatican bureaucracy have been
illegally attempting to silence this apostolate by forcing Father Nicholas
Gruner to live in the diocese of Avellino, Italy. This underhanded strategy
included the offer of finding another bishop to incardinate him, while at the
same time actively seeking to prevent any other bishop in the world from
incardinating him. On November 22, 1999 Father Gruner submitted to Pope John
Paul II a formal canonical recourse and complaint against these bureaucrats,
along with a cover letter. These two documents, and further letters to the Holy
Father, are now presented for your review, as faithful supporters of The
Fatima Crusader. |
|
| Letter to His Holiness Pope
John Paul II |
|
|
Reprinted here is the letter that Father Gruner
sent to Pope John Paul II on November 22, 1999, along with his "Recourse to the
Supreme Pontiff and Canonical Complaint". The submission of this letter and the
accompanying legal document to the Pope now places the case of the unjust and
continuous persecution of Father Nicholas Gruner, by six Vatican bureaucrats,
in the hands of the Holy Father. |
|
| Recourse to the Supreme
Pontiff |
|
|
This is the "Recourse to the Supreme Pontiff and
Canonical Complaint", against six Vatican bureaucrats involved in the unjust
and continuous persecution of Father Nicholas Gruner, sent by Father Gruner to
the Holy Father. |

| Catholic Church in China -

| by Joseph M.C.
Kung |

This report describes the ongoing persecution of
the true Catholics, the underground Catholics, in China by the Chinese
government, and the deceptions of the Chinese Communist government-sponsored
anti-Catholic "Catholic" church - the Catholic Patriotic Association.
