Fatima Prayer

This prayer, given to the children at Fatima, Portugal in 1917, by an angel of God, prior to their visitation from Mary is a great comfort to me. Rather than fearing for our loved ones who have turned away from the Lord, we can entrust them to His tender mercies. This prayer is now said after each decade of the Rosary.

O my Jesus,
forgive us our sins.
Save us from the fires of hell.
Lead all souls to heaven,
especially those in most need
of Thy mercy.
