At Fatima, Our Lady gave us the prayer of the Rosary and the practice of the Five First Saturdays as an effective spiritual means to obtain special divine favors. 

The practice of the First Five Saturdays consists in the following: on the first Saturday of five consecutive months, to receive the sacrament of Confession and Holy Communion, pray the Rosary, and meditate for fifteen minutes on at least one of the fifteen mysteries of the Rosary, with the intention of making reparation for the sins against the Immaculate Heart of Mary. 

In the face of the tremendous crisis now afflicting the Catholic Church, the Confraternity of Our Lady of Fatima is launching a worldwide spiritual crusade consisting in the daily prayer of the Holy Rosary and practice of the Five First Saturdays, to implore, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, God’s help and intervention, particularly for the Holy See in Rome. 

This spiritual crusade will begin on the first Saturday of January 2024 (January 6) and conclude on the first Saturday of December 2024 (December 7).
