Taking this class has helped me to understand more about the Blessed Mother and the graces she bestows on us. I learned about private revelations and what they mean or the spiritual message that is so powerful and uplifting. I have to pay attention and am always thankful and grateful. I will read the book again Fatima and The First Saturdays because I want my family and friends to participate.

A really brilliant book… Really situates the First Saturdays at the core of the Message of Our Lady of Fatima and explains it in a way that is very readable and understandable by all of us.

The Fatima and First Saturdays Study Groups helped me to grow even closer to Our Lord through Our Lady. The study is packed with information about Fatima that I had never heard or realized before, and I have been practicing the First Saturdays for years! I highly recommend the Fatima and First Saturdays Group Study to anyone wanting to deepen their faith in our Eucharistic Lord!
Ford Culbertson, IL, Communal First Saturdays Apostolate Member
This book is the best Fatima book ever! The Fatima and the First Saturdays Group just completely opens up everyone’s mind to what happened at Fatima.
Dana Terrone, TX, Realtor and mama of a 5 month old girl
I participated in this study during my pregnancy and I couldn't believe the blessings that I experienced through those 13 weeks. I was called to step up and facilitate the study this spring/summer, and I have been blessed with a wonderful group and keep continuing to learn about this important message from Our Lady. I am excited to lead and share this message. This study is a MUST participate! It will change your life, deepen your faith and confidence in the Catholic Church and reinforce your love for Our Lady, whom we owe our life to.
Leslie Sylvester
I've wanted to participate in a CFSD for a long time, since my mother shared the message of Fatima when I was a child. Since that time, she taught me to add 1 of the requested prayers Our Lady gave to the 3 children at Fatima, to my daily rosary, but I never knew there were 4 others to add. Also, I never knew how to go about doing the First Saturdays Devotion until I read about the online study groups in our church bulletin.
I thought I was well educated on The Fatima message, but was in awe when I began this study group. I became aware of how much more there was to learn!
Most importantly, I learned of the dire need to spread this devotion as widely and quickly as possible! Our world will never know peace until this devotion is practiced worldwide! The great chastisement is imminent, unless we spread this devotion and enough people practice it! This is my new passion in life!
Our group leaders are so knowledgeable regarding The Communal First Saturdays Devotion, and so devoted to educating others. I am so grateful that our church shares this info in our weekly bulletin and to all who make this study and devotion possible!
Rebecca Leon, TX
After visiting the apparitions site in Portugal a few years ago I was always interested in finding more about what I learned there. Taking the Study Groups and Co-Leading has been a wonderful experience that I recommend to others.
Paul Coniglio, TX
I attribute the birth of my two granddaughters to our Mother Mary of Fatima. My daughter was not able to have children of her own due to very low hormone levels . After my wife and I brought the Fatima statue to my daughter’s home and reciting the rosary as a family for the first time . My daughter came to our home 4 weeks later to tell us she was 3 to 4 weeks pregnant , the doctors couldn’t explain it for our first granddaughter or for the second one who was born a year and a half later. I knew , when the doctor couldn’t explain what happened . It was 2 beautiful miracles. I owe it all to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary , I owe our Mother Mary so much for the 2 lives my family received through her Blessings and Graces. I happily and joyfully spread the First Saturdays as Jesus asks of us. To give credit to the Immaculate Heart of Mary for her intercessions in my families lives , and for her promise to bring about peace through out our world. I believe and trust in their promise to us.
