* Pope John Paul II, the Fatima Pope was born on 18/5/1920 : If you add the nos. you get 26 i.e.
13 X 2 * He died on 2/4/2005: total no is 13 * He lived 31 thousand days * He

Ceremony was held on 3/2/2006: total of nos is 13!
15)
Before Mr. Georges
Presentation, he spoke on Hell from a speech of late Fr. Marcel Nault
which is being polished elsewhere. Prof. Americo answered the questions since he is the expert on these
issues.
16)
Then, Prof. Americo explained details of the Pilgrim Virgin Statue of Our Lady of Fatima :-
·
The Golden Border (line) covering Her Mantle symbolises the Queenship of Mary
·
Her white garment symbolizes Her resurrected body after Assumption; it is a glorious
image.
·
The chain & pendant is the form of the globe symbolizing the whole world.
·
Which is bigger: Her Heart or the globe? Her Heart is bigger than the globe because
of super abundance of grace because the whole world has been entrusted to the
Immaculate Heart of Mary, which is bigger than all the miseries & evil
combined.
17)
* Her Heart is opened with
flames of fire showing the ardent presence of the Holy Trinity. “He will do
His Dwelling in Your Heart! “From Her Heart came a light: the
light of God which is the most profound ocean of love. This is the Mystery of revelation
of the Holy Trinity. This happened at the 13 May 1917 Apparition. Blessed Jacinta would
do anything to have the same ardent fire that she had experienced, because she
was working for the Conversion of Sinners.
* The Thorns Surrounding Her Heart indicate the sins against
God; not affecting the privileges & virtues of Mary.
* Her right forearm, is extended indicating Our Lady
embracing Sr. Lucia to comfort her for her solitude. The Immaculate Heart of
Mary was her (and our) refuge / fortitude. Our Lady took Her Heart and gave Sr.
Lucia meaning that She is Keeping Her Heart in this world.
18)
* The whole Statue
represents the Spiritual Motherhood of Mary over all mankind including
non-Catholics; because Christ died for all mankind on the 1st Good
Friday, giving birth to Her Spiritual Children in Her Heart. Therefore,
devotion to the Immaculate Heart is the soul of the Message of Fatima. In St John
Bosco’s famous vision, the big column
represents the Blessed Sacrament. The second column represents Mary coming to
Help Christians.
* In the statue,
Our Lady is barefoot, as in
hand-maids, servants & slaves. She
is a slave and Servant of God. Also, She is Queen of all creation, hence the
Golden Globe.
* At the bottom is the Star of Evangelization. The
1st Evangelization at Guadalupe was that of Latin American
Countries. Fatima is the New Evangelization.
* Below are relics of Blesseds Francisco and Jacinta
embedded at the foot of the statue.
19)
After lunch, Ms. Nida completed
her report; then Dr. Celcio Dias presented his report on the Indian National
WAF Centre. Then the workshop was presided by Archbishop Angel N.
Lagdameo & Prof. Americo. Archbishop Lagdameo mentioned that the Decree of
approval, Mission statement and this Congress Report should be sent to all Asian Bishops with a
letter of Prof. Americo, through another magazine.
20)
Prof. Americo mentioned that “Annuario
Pontificio” (Book) should be available with all Diocesan Bishops. It has all
the contacts of the Bishops. He emphatically praised and thanked WAF Philippines
* In 1946, Sr. Lucia mentioned that Sanctification of our daily duty
was more important that the Rosary & Scapular. However, before she died,
she mentioned that now the “1st Saturday Communion of Reparation
in honour of the Immaculate Heart of Mary is most important!
* For the Universal
Church Vatican
21) Most
Rev. Angel N. Lagdameo was the main celebrant at the Eucharistic Celebration;

Region & Cebu Archdiocesan Division;

23) Msgr.
Garcia explained that the Chapel was consecrated only last year. When he was in
the Chapel of Apparitions in Fatima , in 1999
he was in deep prayer at night; the guard unknowingly locked him in the Chapel
for the whole night. Alone, he had a night vigil and got inspiration to found
the “Angel of Peace” order through Ricardo J. Cardinal Vidal. Before this, he
received a sign from the Holy Fr: when he attended Holy Mass,
since he was late, he was made to sit in the middle. At the end the Holy Father
came straight to him. Msgr. Told his wish and the Holy Fr. told him that he has
his blessings, but he would have to suffer much. He had surgery of the heart,
which is Gods providence. Below the Chapel’s
main altar is the Throne of the Lamb.
24)
Outside the Chapel are empty niches for
the bones of the ancestors. Jesus’ Agony in the Gethsemane Garden Gethsemane Garden

Thee for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not hope and do not love
Thee!”……… 10 times (Pardon Prayer ), then, “Most Holy Trinity …….” (total 5
times )
29) Many
visited the monument to Our Lady of Manaoay, before leaving the Chapel of the
Angel of Peace. The Chapel is in need of the
Holy Relics of Blessed Francisco and Jacinta.
30) Then
we proceeded to Our Lady of Fatima Parish which is the Archdiocesan Shrine
