First Saturday of the Month of August

Saturday is the first Saturday of August

N Sra de Fatima

In the Comunidade Advento (Advent Community) we make the devotion of the five first Saturdays and the communion of reparation for the sins committed against the immaculate Heart of Mary.

We begin in August and we will go to December. Beginning at 8:00 AM we get together in the center of the Communidade Advento, we watch a film on the Apparition of Our Lady of Fatima to Lucia, Jacinta and Francisco and we pray the Holy Rosary. We study a little bit of Maryology, there is confession and Mass presided by our founder Fr. Anderson Risseto. Whomever cannot be be there early can arrive at 2:00 pm for the Act of Pennance and the Communion of Reparation.

The other Saturdays will be Sept 9, Oct 2, Nov 6, December 12.

Let’s understand this devotion a little more.

“God wants to establish in the world the devotion to my Immaculate Heart”

Nossa Senhora

In the third apparition, in Fatima, July 13, 1917, the Most Blessed Virgin announced that she was coming to ask the communion of reparation the first Saturdays. But later December 10, 1925, when Sister Lucia was already in the House of Doroteias, in Pontevedra in Spain, Our Lady appeared to her again. At her side was the Baby Jesus, on top of a bright cloud.

“Look, my daughter,” The Virgin Mary said to her, “My heart surrounded by thorns that that ingrate men at all moments pierce me with blasphemy and ingratude. You at least come to console, and say that all for all those that during the five months of the first Saturday

  • Confess
  • Receive Holy Communion
  • Pray the Rosary
  • And remain 15 minutes in accompanying me meditating on the twenty mysteries of the Rosary with in order to do reparation.

I promise to assist them in the hour of death with all the graces needed for the salvation of these souls.”
