Upfront - if it wasn’t for the fact that twenty five years ago someone told me about the events at Fatima I would not be a practising Catholic. I have a lot to be grateful for to God, Our Lady and Lucia.
But I must admit I have been increasingly puzzled by events over the last twenty years in regard to Fatima, and especially the last 4 years.
Why?
Well the Vatican seems to want to draw a line under it all and close the book, but to me it seems that is not possible.
My reasons are…
Has someone decided to withhold part of it?
In the 1950’s Lucia said that the secret would make more sense after 1960, but I don’t see that in what has been told to us. The only significant event post 1960 that could fit is Vatican II.
Also the described vision only fits the assasination attempt on John Paul with the use of a very considerable amount of “spin”.
I don’t think Fatima is over by a long way (I hope not anyway).
The world needs converting - to the Catholic Church - to the one True Religion - To the Church founded by Jesus Christ. None of this being nice to other religions nonsense - the Truth is the Truth and is found in Jesus Christ only.
The Church’s are emptying today because of 40 years of wrong-headedness about what the mission of the Church and its relationship with other religions.
Many Catholic’s now are indifferent to their own faith because of this - if I hear “You don’t have to go to Church to be good” one more time I will burst!
As I said I’m puzzled.
But I’m also hopeful - Our Lady said her Immaculate heart WILL triumph in the end.
Our Lady of Fatima pray for us.
Jesus have mercy on us and help us see.

My reasons are…
- Russia is obviously not converted (unless Our Lady meant converted to capitalism - which I’m sure she didn’t).
- Sin is even more prevalent in the world than in 1917.
- Man continues to offend God on an even greater scale.
- The Immaculate Heart of Mary has not triumphed yet.
- The Catholic Church is in a perilous state.
- Many Catholic schools teach plurality of religions and are afraid to teach the one true religion.
- Modernism has a firm grip amongst the Catholic hierarchy.
- Traditional Catholic dogma is being ignored in the quest for ecumenism.
- The consecration of Russia has certainly not been carried out AS REQUESTED.
and so on… the world is still a mess basically and its getting worse.
