Читать книгу The Miracle and the Message - John C. Preiss - Страница 2

“In his book The Miracle and the Message: 100 Years of Fatima, author John Preiss makes a century-old message relevant for today. Prayer, penance, conversion, and reparation are important and can be practiced and lived not only by individuals but also by societies — indeed by countries — as a whole. What our Blessed Mother revealed to three shepherd children in 1917 echoes throughout the decades as a heavenly battle cry to save the world and all its peoples from self-destruction.”

“In The Miracle and the Message: 100 Years of Fatima, John Preiss recounts a number of significant, mostly unknown, details which show that Fatima remains one of the most relevant messages for the world today. He demonstrates that Fatima is not simply a pious tale from the past, but a Message that re-presents the essential elements of the Gospel and motivates us to greater fidelity to God, who is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. I recommend The Miracle and the Message to all who want to better live the Gospel.”

“Francisco and Jacinta Marto have been canonized — and the Servant of God Lucia Dos Santos advances toward the honors of the altar, as well — but the miracle and meaning of Fatima are far from over. The Fatima message remains as relevant today as when it was first given to the world one hundred years ago. In this wonderful book, John Preiss does a remarkable job of reminding us of the fundamentals of Fatima. In essence, Jesus and Mary continue to call us to repentance, prayer, and acts of reparation to the Eucharistic Presence of Our Lord and the Immaculate Heart of Our Lady.”
