One
of the most frequent questions that we receive concerns Our Lady’s statement at
“You
see hell, where the souls of poor sinners go.
To save them God wishes to establish in the world the devotion to my
Immaculate Heart. If they do what I will
tell you, many souls will be saved, and there will be peace. The war is going to end. But if they do not stop offending God,
another and worse war will begin in the reign of Pius XI. When you shall see a
night illuminated by an unknown light, know that it is a great sign that God
gives you that He is going to punish the world for its crimes by means of war,
of hunger, and of persecution of the Church and of the Holy Father. To prevent this I come to ask the

First,
in examining this issue it is important for people to clear their minds of any pre-conceived
notions or prejudices in this area. They must be prepared to take a fresh new
look at the facts. Let’s jump
right into this very important issue:
FACT
#1: POPE PIUS XII CONSECRATED
Many
know that Pope Pius XII consecrated the world to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
in 1942. Many do not know that Pope Pius
XII specifically consecrated
I
didn’t know this until I began studying this issue in some depth. But this important fact is revealed even in
the books promoted by “Fr.” Nicholas Gruner’s apostolate.
Frere Michel de la Sainte Trinite, The Whole Truth About
This
fact can also be found in the book Fatima
in Twilight:
Mark Fellows, Fatima in Twilight, p. 119: “The
letter went on to request that Pius consecrate
Here
are the words of Pope Pius XII:
Pope Pius XII, Sacro Vergente Anno (Apostolic Letter), July 7, 1952: “…just as a few years ago We consecrated
the entire human race to the Immaculate Heart of the Virgin Mary, Mother of
God, so today We consecrate and in a most special manner We entrust all the
peoples of Russia to this Immaculate Heart…”
Thus, it is an
undeniable fact that Pope Pius XII specifically consecrated
But
didn’t Our Lady promise that
FACT
#2: OUR LADY NEVER SAID THAT THE CONVERSION OF
The
question that we must re-examine is: did
Our Lady ever say that
“But of course it means that the entire
country will be converted to the Catholic Faith,” as one person told us, “for it couldn’t mean anything else!” This person even said that it is absurd to
think that Our Lady would ever use the word “conversion” to mean anything but a
conversion to the true Faith. Oh
really? Well, this person may be
surprised to learn that in Proverbs 16:7, Almighty God Himself uses the word
“conversion” not to mean a conversion to the true Faith, but the conversion of
a persecuting enemy to peace (i.e. to a cessation of his persecuting ways).
Proverbs 16:7- “When
the ways of man shall please the Lord, He will convert even his
enemies to peace.”
In
fact, what is striking is that Our Lady’s words of July 13 appear to be
structured on Proverbs 16:7: in the context of both, conversion is immediately linked
with peace, after a man fulfills the request of the Lord.

After
studying this issue in depth, and taking a fresh new look at the facts, I am of
the firm opinion that Our Lady’s words are structured on the promise of Proverbs
16:7: the “conversion” of Russia does not mean the conversion of the nation to
the Catholic Faith, but rather the conversion of a persecuting enemy (Russia)
to a certain period of peace. We will
see exactly what this means as we go along, and that the evidence from the

is HUGELY SIGNIFICANT is that Frere Michel admits that Sr. Lucy summarized this

Goncalves:

p. 465: “[page after quoting what you
just read] Let us point out right
away that in 1930, in two letters to Father Goncalves, Sister Lucy was to
express in a slightly different manner the requests of heaven… [Sister
Lucy]: ‘The good Lord promises to end
the persecution in Russia, if the Holy Father will himself make a
solemn act of reparation and consecration of Russia to the Sacred Hearts of
Jesus and Mary, as well as ordering all the bishops of the Catholic Church to
do the same. The Holy Father must then
promise that upon the ending of this persecution he will approve and recommend
the practice of the reparatory devotion already described.’”

we will see, even Frere Michel, an author whose work is promoted by Nicholas
Gruner’s apostolate, admits that the
Soviet Union’s takeover of the Baltic nations and other small States during the
period of World War II, which it simply annexed to itself making them exist no longer, constituted the annihilation of
nations of which Our Lady spoke.

article carried on the website of the Joint Baltic American National Committee
notes that:

processes whereby the political independence and territorial integrity of
the three small Baltic republics – Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania – were to be deliberately annihilated by one of their more
powerful neighbors, have been rapidly drawn to their conclusion.’” (Joint

Sr.
Lucy is obviously reiterating Our Lady’s words about the annihilation of
nations. However, if a nation were
devastated by nuclear catastrophe, it wouldn’t disappear. It would still be visible, but as an empty
and devastated wasteland. The only way
to make a nation literally “disappear” is by erasing it from the map by
incorporation into another country, as happened with the
Soviet Foreign Minister, Molotov, to
Lithuanian Foreign Minister: “You must take a good look at reality and
understand that in the future small

this led to the “good being martyred,” which has also been fulfilled:

is simply a fact that countless Catholics were martyred at the hands of the
Frere Michel de la Sainte Trinite, The Whole Truth About Fatima, Vol. 2,
p. 764: “When, in a letter of January 21, 1940, Sister Lucy mentioned in connection with the war ‘the blood spilled by the martyrs’, which in the end would
appease the divine wrath, and when
Our Lady announced in her Secret that ‘the
good will be martyred,’ how can we forget about these millions of Ukrainian
or Polish Catholics martyred by the Bolsheviks?”
A
prime example comes from
“On
Holy Thursday of 1923, Msgr. Budkiewicz was martyred with frightful cruelty. Brutally pushed across a dark corridor, he
fell and broke his leg… Stripped of
his clothes and no longer able to walk, the martyr was dragged by the ears all
the way to the detachment of guards. One
of his ears had been severed. In the
gaping hole, he was given a revolver shot.
Father Walsh… heard the shot ring out among shouts, drunken singing
and bursts of laughter. So that no
relics would remain, the martyr’s body was burned and his ashes dispersed. And this
was the signal for a series of attacks against the hierarchy, clergy and laity,
many of whom were sent to the icy
prisons of Solowki on the

of churches [in Russia] closed, great numbers of icons burned, all workers and
schoolchildren compelled to work and Sundays suppressed, but they even
compelled factory workers, both men and women, to sign a declaration of formal
apostasy and hatred against God, or else be deprived of their bread rationing
cards, without which every inhabitant of this poor country is reduced to dying
of hunger, misery and cold.
Among other things, in all the cities and in many villages… during the
Christmas holy days last year: they witnessed a procession of tanks manned by
numerous ruffians clad with sacred vestments, taking the cross in derision and
spitting upon it while other armored cars transported huge Christmas trees,
from which marionettes representing Catholic and Orthodox bishops were hung by
the neck. In the center of the city,
other young hoodlums committed all sorts of sacrileges against the cross.”

pointless.)

192)

is a fact that doesn’t need to be proven any further: the good were martyred in

Some
also ask: what about the persecution of the Holy Father, who will “have much to
suffer”? What is the meaning of
this? We find the answer in the
aforementioned message of Our Lord to Sr. Lucy from 1940:

The
persecution of the Church during this period – the torture and martyrdom of
priests and faithful, the suppression of ecclesiastical activity – weighed as
an incredible burden and torment on the Pope who felt responsible, yet
helpless, in the face of this tragedy.

decree of February 26, 1922 confiscated all the treasures of the Church,
including consecrated objects. At the
same time, and this was still the very early stage of the Bolshevik horrors,
Cardinal Mercier published the first figures of the persecution: “Statistics
for the victims of the persecution are frightening. Since November 1917, 260,000 simple soldier
prisoners and 54,000 officers; 18,000 landed proprietors; 35,000

priests were put to death.” (WTAF, Vol. 2, p. 451)

Shortly
after taking over
“In
April 1919, following Dzerzhinsky’s recommendation and with Lenin’s
approval, the Soviet government
ordered the establishment of a network of concentration camps, at least one
per province, the first of its kind in history, which served as a model and
inspiration to Hitler and his Nazis and
was later to become infamous as the GULAG.
By 1923 the number of these camps had reached 315.” (Warren H.
Carroll, The Rise and Fall of the
Communist Revolution, p. 142)
It’s
important for us to get a glimpse of the horrors of the Gulag. For this purpose, I will quote from Warren H.
Carroll who, in turn, draws from Alexander Solzhenitsyn’s famed work, The Gulag Archipelago.
Alexander
Solzhenitsyn as Gulag labor camp prisoner scs 262
“The famine dealt out death at
home, or as far away from home as dying men could walk. The
labor camps dealt out death afar…It
seems almost presumptuous for any man to write of the gulag, after Alexander
Solzhenitsyn. He was in it; he made
its theme his own; he changed the world and history by what he wrote about it… Here we can only select, here and there,
from Solzhenitsyn, and annotate him – to give a bit of the sense, the flavor,
the sound of the wind from hell that blew across those killing grounds in the
wilderness.” (Warren H. Carroll, The
Rise and Fall of the Communist Revolution, p. 243)
Carroll
then proceeds to describe the labor camp at Orotukan:
“We
may begin with Orotukan. In the
middle of the second volume of The Gulag
Archipelago, Solzhenitsyn concludes a brief description of Orotukan (which he then locates only by a reference
to the Kolyma River in far northern Siberia), whose horrors sound as bad
but no worse than those of many other labor camps he has described, with this
one stark sentence: ‘All who survived Orotukan say they would
have preferred the gas chamber.’ All who
were there and survived, and spoke about it, say they would have preferred
death to survival?... On the far side of the
Until November they had only shelters made of branches to live in, and
were given no clothing but what they had arrived in. Then they were given wooden barracks with
walls made of single boards without insulation.

their day’s work. These, still at

Carroll
also describes the
“The
‘At the end of the workday there were
corpses left on the work site.
The snow powdered their faces. One of them was hunched over beneath an
overturned wheelbarrow; he had hidden his hands in his sleeves and frozen to
death in that position. Someone had frozen with his head bent down
between his knees. Two were frozen
back to back leaning against each other. They were peasant lads and the best workers
one could possibly imagine. They were
sent to the canal in tens of thousands at a time, and the authorities tried to
work things out so no one got to the same subcamp as his father; they tried to
break up families. And right off they gave them norms of shingle and boulders that you’d
be unable to fulfill even in summer.
No one was able to teach them anything, to warn them; and in their
village simplicity they gave all
their strength to their work and weakened very swiftly and froze to death,
embracing in pairs. At night the sledges
went out and collected them. The
drivers threw the corpses onto the sledges with a dull clonk.
And in the summer bones remained from corpses which had not been removed
in time, and together with the shingle they got into the concrete mixer.”

the Communist Revolution, pp. 248-249)

Joseph Stalin,
arguably the greatest mass-murderer in history, leader of Communist Russia from
1924-1953
From
1930-1934, Stalin instituted the policy of “dekulakization.” Farmers that were opposed, or perceived as
threats, to the Communist policy of collectivization of farms were dubbed
“kulaks” and liquidated. This
unspeakable tragedy resulted in the deaths of 14.5 million:
“Who were these ‘kulaks’?... In May 1929 the Council of People’s
Commissars formally defined a kulak as any farmer who made any money whatsoever
from any source or activity other than the sale of agricultural produce grown
in his own fields. Any outside
income, any processing of goods done on the farm (as by a small hand-operated
mill), was sufficient to make a kulak. When the campaign of liquidation was
launched in 1930, from ten to fifteen per cent of the small farmers in every
region were arbitrarily dubbed kulaks and liquidated. If
there were not enough of them fitting the May 1929 definition, others had to be
added to fill up the quota. They could
be selected by income level, actual or apparent; by leadership in local
villages… by opposition to forced collectivization (a particularly frequent
reason for designation as a kulak); or simply by being devout Christians… It was the first act of a farm holocaust
from 1930 to 1934 that took ten million lives by Stalin’s own estimate
given to U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt at
Here
is the harrowing account of Miron Dolot.
Dolot witnessed the deportations of these “kulaks” from his hometown to
the labor camps and other regions:
“A
cold wind blew snow on the unfortunates, who were not properly dressed, for
they had not been allowed to take warm clothing with them. We
wanted to help somehow, and since we could assume that they would be banished
to Siberia, we had to get them some heavy clothing… Under careful supervision of soldiers, a
score of sleighs moved into the square.
They were to take the arrested farmers out of the village. Loading of six to eight persons to a sleigh
started immediately, controlled through the use of a list… husbands were separated from their wives, and children from their
parents… As one sleigh moved to join a column, a young man sprang from it
and raced toward another sleigh in which his helpless and weeping wife and
children were riding. The father
obviously wanted to be with his family, but he did not reach them. Comrade
Pashchenko, the chairman of the village soviet who was supervising the
whole action, raised his revolver and
calmly fired. The young father dropped
dead into the snow, and the sleigh carrying his widow and orphans moved on.”
(Warren H. Carroll, The Rise and Fall of
the Communist Revolution, pp. 227-228)
“There are reports of ‘kulaks’ on trains to
Kazakhstan or Siberia, locked in cars each carrying fifty of them, with a loaf
of bread and a pail of tea or thin soup per day per ten people (on days when it
was delivered), crawling with vermin, unheated in winter, suffocatingly hot in
summer, throwing their dying babies out the windows to put an end to their
suffering.” (Warren H. Carroll, The Rise
and Fall of the Communist Revolution, p. 228)
In
1933, in order to starve millions in the
Children in the

“The
cold hard essence of the situation was this: the Ukrainian farmers were going to die; and
the Communist operatives feared death, or purging, or the labor camps if they
did not let them die. They knew there was no grain. Everybody knew it. But no one dared say it… Meanwhile the people
were eating rats, mice, sparrows, snails, ants, and earthworms, leather and
shoe soles, old skins and furs, ground-up bones, acacia bark and nettles. By March, in many areas, even most of
these things were gone, and there was nothing at all left to eat. A ghastly silence fell over the countryside;
there were no animals to make any sound, and the people still alive rarely
spoke. Victor Kravchenko, then a Party
activist sent to
‘Here I saw people dying in solitude by slow
degrees, dying hideously, without the excuse of sacrifice for a cause. They had been trapped and left to starve,
each in his own home, by a political decision made in a far-off capital around
conference and banquet tables. There
was not even the consolation of inevitability to relieve the horror. The most terrifying sights were the little
children with skeleton limbs dangling from balloon-like abdomens. Starvation had wiped every trace of youth
from their faces, turning them into tortured gargoyles; only in their eyes
still lingered the reminder of childhood.
Everywhere we found men and women lying prone, their faces and bellies
bloated, their eyes utterly expressionless… Some five million Ukrainians died in this genocidal, deliberate
famine.” (Warren H. Carroll, The
Rise and Fall of the Communist Revolution, pp. 240-241)
At
this point we can clearly see why, on July 13, 1917, Our Lady mentioned persecutions
of “war,
of hunger, and of persecution of the Church and of the Holy Father. To
prevent this I come to ask the consecration of
These
facts should show us clearly the context in which Our Lady requested the
consecration of
HE WILL DO THE
CONSECRATION, BUT IT WILL BE “LATE” – FITS POPE PIUS XII
It
is certain that Pope Pius XI failed to consecrate
Our Lord to Sister Lucy, Summer, 1931: “Like the King of
Pope Pius XII, Sacro Vergente Anno (Apostolic Letter), July 7, 1952: “…just as a few years ago We consecrated
the entire human race to the Immaculate Heart of the Virgin Mary, Mother of
God, so today We consecrate and in a most special manner We entrust all the
peoples of Russia to this Immaculate Heart…”
It’s
clear that, as most commentators agree, Our Lord’s words “They” will repent and do it apply to the line of Popes – just as
Popes in encyclicals refer to themselves as “We.” (“They” cannot refer to the Pope and all the Bishops, because all the
Bishops did not delay the request and therefore do not need to repent of
delaying it.)
That
Pope Pius XII was the one who did it, but “late,” makes perfect sense.
First,
Pope Pius XII consecrated the world to the Immaculate Heart of Mary in
1942. Ten years later, however, he
“repented and did it” by specifically consecrating

in 1939
Third,
there may be another signal that Pope Pius XII (though he certainly did it
late) would be the one who would actually consecrate
William Thomas Walsh, Our Lady of Fatima, 1954, p. 52 (note 1): “It is an interesting coincidence that Monsignor Eugenio Pacelli [Pius
XII] was being consecrated Bishop at the Sistine Chapel in Rome on May 13,
1917, the very day when the children [first] saw the Lady of Fatima.”
Fourth,
a careful consideration of Our Lady’s words reveals that the actual fulfillment

1970 the government was changed. It was a time when the economy was more

Labor turmoil in 1980 led to the
formation of the independent trade union, "Solidarity", which over
time became a political force. It eroded
the dominance of the Communist Party; by 1989 it had triumphed in

further corroborates that Russia was converting from its satanic regime of
persecutions to a certain period of peace is the fact that, as Poland began to
free itself from Communist domination, Russia

Communist Party, as it had done in the past; whereas in China, during the

Lady. What people need to know is that
Fr. Alonso was a liberal heretic who 1) justified Paul VI’s decision not to
reveal the third secret; 2) condemned traditionalists; 3) was extremely soft on
the number one enemy of Fatima, Fr. Dhanis; and 4) agreed with the bogus note
from the Coimbra diocese which rejected Sr. Lucy’s 1957 interview with Fr.
Fuentes.
Fr. Alonso: “An inopportune revelation of the text [by Paul VI] would only have
further exasperated the two tendencies which continue to tear the Church apart:
a traditionalism which would believe itself to be assisted by the

we see Fr. Alonso condemning traditionalists and justifying Paul VI for not
revealing the third secret! Remember,
this is the man who, in addition to Gruner, is largely responsible for

Here
we see Fr. Alonso agreeing with the bogus note from the Diocese of Coimbra
(more on this in a bit) which denounced Fr. Fuentes as a fabricator. Thus, the fact that Fr. Alonso held such and
such a position or idea proves nothing.
What is very interesting and unfortunate is that writer after writer has
adopted the idea of Alonso and Gruner on the conversion of

Q.
What about Sr. Lucy’s statements after 1960? She seems to be quoted every which way? Some quote her saying that John Paul II
successfully consecrated
A. After 1960 we are undoubtedly dealing with a
massive conspiracy and an impostor Sr. Lucy.
We will now cover the striking evidence that the enemies of the message
of
First of all, we know
that there was a conspiracy involving Sr. Lucy starting in 1959. In 1957, Sr. Lucy gave her famous interview
to Fr. Augustin Fuentes, postulator of the cause of Beatification for Jacinta
and Francisco. In this interview, Sr.
Lucy said that she had determined that we are in the last times, and that there
are punishments in store for the world.
Sr. Lucy also said not to wait for the hierarchy for the call to
penance. Following the interview, in
1959 the Diocese of Coimbra issued a note.
This note declared that Fr. Fuentes fabricated basically all the
statements attributed to Lucy in the interview not dealing specifically with
Jacinta and Francisco. Included in this
note was a statement allegedly from Sr. Lucy, in which she supposedly declared
that Fr. Fuentes’ claims were not truthful. Here is a portion of the note:
Note from the Diocese
of Coimbra,
July 2, 1959, on the Fuentes interview: “Father
Augustin Fuentes, postulator of the cause of beatification for the seers of
Fatima… visited Sister Lucy at the
[Sr. Lucy]: ‘Father Fuentes spoke to me in
his capacity as Postulator for the causes of beatification of the servants of
God, Jacinta and Francisco Marto. We
spoke solely on things connected with this subject; therefore, whatever else
he refers to is neither exact nor true.
I am sorry about it, for I do not understand what good can be done for
souls when it is not based on God, Who is the Truth. I know
nothing, and could therefore say nothing, about such punishments, which are
falsely attributed to me.’
The chancery of
Even
“Fr.” Gruner’s apostolate holds the Fuentes interview to be authentic, and this
statement from the Diocese of Coimbra, in which Sr. Lucy supposedly disavows
much of the Fuentes interview, to be a lie.
Thus, we are dealing with a conspiracy
surrounding Sr. Lucy as early as 1959 – the
diocese attributing and publishing false statements in Sr. Lucy’s name to
disavow important warnings for the world. At the same time, it was conveniently
declared that Sr. Lucy “has said everything she believed it her duty to say
about Fatima”; in other words, Sr. Lucy has nothing more to say about
Frere Michel de la Sainte Trinite, The Whole Truth About Fatima, Vol. 3,
pp. 748-749: “From then on [after the
Fuentes interview and diocesan note disavowing it], she was bound to a much
more rigorous silence on everything concerning
Well,
we believe that the following photographs (in addition to other evidence)
reveal why, following the Fuentes interview, Sr. Lucy was subjected to a
rigorous silence, why she became “invisible.”
It’s because after that point it wasn’t Sr. Lucy at all, but an impostor
posing as Sr. Lucy. Here are pictures of
the real Sr. Lucy from 1945, when she was 38 years old:
The real Sr. Lucy in
1945, at age 38
Now
here is the picture of "Sr. Lucy" in 1967 at age 60!
"Sr. Lucy"
in 1967 at age 60
You
can judge for yourself, but the woman pictured here is not the same as the
woman pictured above. First, this
photograph is from 1967. Thus, this is
supposedly “Sr. Lucy” 22 years later, at age 60! But this woman looks as young, or even
younger, than Sr. Lucy when she was 38 years old!
Second,
the real Sr. Lucy (the first picture) has a different nose structure than this
"Sr. Lucy." This "Sr.
Lucy's" nose is much broader; it's a different woman. Of course, while a person can (and often
does) noticeably age when going from middle-aged to late middle-aged, he or she
is still noticeably the same person – unlike in this case.
Third,
a reader of ours named Barbara Costello has pointed out that Sr. Lucy has a
characteristic dimple in her chin and in her cheeks. We see this in the
following photograph of Sr. Lucy in 1945, again at age 38 (as well as first
picture above, the right-hand picture from 1945):
Notice the
characteristic dimple in her cheeks and the center of her chin
But
this "Sr. Lucy" below does not have the characteristic dimples in her
cheeks and the center of her chin. This
“Sr. Lucy” has a predominant characteristic of a protruding, forward chin,
which the real Sr. Lucy doesn't have (besides the different nose structure).
This woman is not Sr.
Lucy, but a phony Sr. Lucy that was implanted and specially picked to serve the
purpose of the false Fatima line and the

more than 40 years, "Sr. Lucy" was unable to be seen even by her
sister except through a grille and with other nuns present! This would explain why her sister would not
have uncovered the fraud – she was never able to see “Sr. Lucy” except
behind a grille and fully clothed in a habit, and never able to speak
intimately with her because of the constant presence of “many” other nuns! This strange quarantining of “Sr. Lucy” was
not, as "Fr." Gruner has suggested, because she would tell the world
the truth about
So
Sr. Lucy was never allowed to speak with her family except from behind a
grille, but when they needed “Sr. Lucy”
to publicly endorse the Vatican II sect, its Antipopes, and their failure to
release the third secret, she was neatly presented to the world at Fatima in
1967, so that she could be seen hobnobbing with her fellow conspirator,
Antipope Paul VI.
The phony Sr. Lucy

Same thing here: the
phony Sr. Lucy brought before the world to be seen hobnobbing with Antipope
John Paul II
Another
question that springs to mind after viewing these photographs is: when did Sr.
Lucy get her teeth fixed? Here is a picture of the real Sr. Lucy; her front
teeth were characteristically mangled.
“When Lucia’s second
teeth began to come in… they were large,
projecting and irregular, causing the upper lip to protrude and the heavy
lower one to hang…” (William Thomas Walsh, Our
Lady of Fatima, p. 11)
But
in the photographs of the phony Sr. Lucy above, we see that her teeth are neat
and straight, not large, projecting and irregular. Sure, it's possible that Sr. Lucy had massive
dental surgery or had her teeth replaced to get them looking so neat and
straight as the impostor Sr. Lucy's do, but it is more likely just another proof of the fact that the woman
pictured above is not the real Sr. Lucy pictured here.
For those who find this hard to
accept, I ask them to focus on two things: 1) Our Lord said that in the last
days the deception will be so profound that even the elect would be deceived if
that were possible (Matthew 24), and an impostor Lucy was crucial to the
Devil’s plan of deceiving the world on Fatima.
2) Every traditionalist who

1992, there was the infamous Two Hours
with Sr. Lucy interview, conducted by “Cardinal” Padiyara of Ernaculam,
"Cardinal Padiyara: 'And, was this

1984?'
Sister Lucy: 'Yes, Yes, Yes (In a low affirmative voice which
also seemed to show that she was expecting this question)…

then accepted by Our Lady?'
Sister Lucy: 'Yes.'
Carlos: 'Our Lady is content and has accepted it?'
Sister Lucy: 'Yes.'…
Cardinal Padiyara: 'Does God and Our Lady still want the Church to reveal the
Third Secret?'
Sister Lucy: 'The Third Secret is not intended to be revealed. It
was only intended for the Pope and the immediate Church hierarchy.'
Carlos: 'But didn't Our Lady say that it was to be revealed to the public by
1960, at the latest?'
Sister Lucy: 'Our Lady never said that. Our Lady said that it was
for the Pope.'
Father Pacheco: 'Does the Third Secret have to do with the Second Vatican
Council?'
Sister Lucy: 'I cannot say.'
Carlos: 'Can the Pope reveal the Third Secret?'
Sister Lucy: 'The Pope can reveal it if he chooses to, but I advise
him not to. If he chooses to, I advise great prudence. He must be prudent.'"
The
Grunerites have desperately tried to discredit this interview, since it is so
devastating to their position; but Bro. Michael Dimond (superior of Most Holy
Family Monastery) had a chance to speak with “Fr.” Pacheco when he came to
visit the Monastery once for a conference in the 1990’s. “Fr.” Pacheco told Bro. Michael that
something is very wrong with this Sr. Lucy, and that she couldn’t answer simple
questions about her life. It’s quite
obvious that the interviewers were simply probing too deeply in areas with
which the impostor was unfamiliar.
The
Grunerites attempt to discredit this 1992 interview by pointing out that Sr. Lucy
was always behind the grille, but in this interview she was supposedly out in
the open, even holding hands with people.
But this makes sense: the
Besides
the 1992 interview, Two Hours with Sr.
Lucy, there are numerous other statements from the phony Lucy in which she
fully endorses the Vatican II sect’s line on
VATICAN CITY, DEC 20, 2001 (Vatican
Information Service): “With reference to the third part of the secret of
Fatima, she [“Sr. Lucy”] affirmed that she had attentively read
and meditated upon the booklet published by the Congregation for the Doctrine
of the Faith and confirmed everything that was written there. To whoever imagines that some part of the secret has been hidden, she
replied: ‘Everything has been published; no secret remains.’ To those who speak and write of new
revelations she said: "There is no truth in this. If I had received new
revelations I would have told no-one, but I would have communicated them
directly to the Holy Father." Sister Lucy was asked: ‘What do you say to the persistent affirmations of Fr. Gruner who is
gathering signatures in order that the Pope may finally consecrate
Of
course, the Grunerites will claim that this interview was fabricated or
distorted, but then they are admitting that there is a conspiracy! If the Vatican will go that far, it is
certainly conceivable that it would implant an impostor; and, as we saw, the
claim that all of these statements from “Sr. Lucy” endorsing the phony third
secret are just fabrications is blown away by the video evidence in
which anyone could see her endorse the Vatican’s version of the third secret at
Fatima in 2000.
A bizarre picture of
“Sr. Lucy” kissing John Paul II's hand immediately after receiving
"Communion"
Another
point worth mentioning is “Sr. Lucy’s” bizarre activity when receiving
“Communion” from John Paul II at the aforementioned 2000 “Beatification”
ceremony at Fatima (the same one where she clearly endorsed the
Q. So what do you think happened to the real Sr.
Lucy? A.
They clearly eliminated her at some point. Whenever that may have occurred, there is no
doubt that the woman playing the part of “Sr. Lucy” since Vatican II was not
the real one. Readers can take this for
what it is worth (and it is not essential in any way to the facts above
which prove that there was indeed an impostor Sr. Lucy), but a few years
back we received a very disturbing letter.
We received a letter from a woman (a traditional Catholic convert) whose
family was involved in the higher-echelons of the Illuminati and Freemasonry. We also spoke to this woman both before and
after she sent it. There was much more
in the letter and in the telephone conversations that added context and
creditability to her claim, but we can only give a portion of the letter below. As hard as this may be to believe, we really did receive the following letter
and speak at length with this woman (she asked that we withhold her name
for obvious reasons):
“Dear Brothers of Holy Family Monastery… As I
told you on the phone I have some very dark relatives…[a world famous
Freemason] is the brother of [x- name removed to preserve anonymity of author]
who was married to my Grand Aunt. All of
my relatives on my mother’s side were 33rd degree Illuminati
Freemasons. My Grandparents were in
Eastern Star… I know I must sound like a screaming weirdo by now. I am not… When I was five my Mother hosted a
gathering. There are many things that
went on that are too gruesome to put in print about these gatherings. They are basically sacrificing to satan to
put it briefly. I had a new baby brother
named [x]… My mother didn’t know ahead of time [that x] was to be part of the
‘ceremonies’. They were going to put him
in what looked like a large brass wok [and torture him] in order to tell the future.
…[thankfully, this didn’t happen because of intervening events]… [But] One of the things that was said that awful
day was they had just killed sister Lucy (I thought they were talking about a
sister I didn’t know I had that they had killed). When I asked they said ‘No stupid…she’s a
nun’ It only made sense years later
what this meant. It was 1958, late Oct
when this happened. [I remember because
my brother had just been born]. I know
that I sound like a mad woman but it is the truth…”
We
have spoken with this woman at length; she is a traditional Catholic convert,
and we believe that she is telling the truth.
But regardless of whether one accepts this testimony or not, the fact is
that there was an impostor Sr. Lucy.
There is no doubt about this; the evidence is undeniable. The Vatican conveniently kept her alive until
97 years old, until it had revealed the phony third secret and she had finished
playing her part, then a few years later she “died” and her cell was ordered
sealed by “Cardinal” Ratzinger.
There
are so many souls who have dismissed the evidence against the Vatican II
apostasy and the New Mass simply because they saw that “Sr. Lucy” accepted
them. We always informed them that they
cannot dismiss facts of the Faith based on what they think another person
believes.
Galatians
1:8-9- “But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach a gospel to you besides
that which we have preached to you, let him be anathema. As we said before, so now I say again: If
anyone preach to you a gospel, besides that which you have received, let him be
anathema.”
Alas,
but lacking true Faith, they chose to follow man instead of God, and were
actually following a complete impostor.

We
hear from these people very frequently, and we’ve always assured them that they
cannot dismiss facts from the teaching of the Magisterium based on their
question of who will fulfill a prophecy.
We always told them that against a fact there is no argument (heretics
cannot be Popes), and truth cannot contradict truth, and therefore there
is a good answer to their question about the consecration, even if one didn’t
have it at the time. But alas, they
dismissed all the facts from the teaching of the Magisterium, and accepted the
Vatican II apostates because of their false idea that one of them must
consecrate

begin at the top.’ These are the very words of Cardinal Ciappi (personal
Papal Theologian to Pope John Paul II). The result of "the great
Apostasy" starting "at the top" is corruption of the clergy and
the laity in doctrine, in morals and in liturgy… God is very angry with His people because He is not only sending us bad
priests, He has also apparently sent us bad bishops and bad Cardinals too…
Pope John Paul II at Fatima, on May
13, 2000 told us that: ‘The message of
This
really encapsulates “Fr.” Gruner’s evil methods and evil apostolate. Here we see Gruner discussing the truth of
how it is predicted that the apostasy in the Church will begin “at the
top.” Who could that be? Obviously it would apply first and foremost
to John Paul II, the man who claimed to be the Pope (claimed to be the top of
the Church) and led the entire apostasy by his idolatrous prayer gatherings at
In
addition to his deadly mixture of truth with error, one of the ways by which
“Fr.” Gruner’s apostolate has become so influential is by propaganda. Here are some of the things that you can find
on the website of his apostolate: His website (Fatima.org) calls his magazine
“Our Lady’s magazine.” It states: “Click
here to read more about Our Lady’s
magazine…”! Boy, who would want to
disagree with or not support “Our Lady’s magazine” – the magazine of Our Lady
herself!
He
calls his Book Service “Our Lady’s Book Service”! Wow, we wish we could have the privilege of
being “Our Lady’s Book Service.” He
calls his radio program “Our Lady’s
Radio Program”! And – yes, you guessed
it – he calls his Apostolate, not just a Fatima Apostolate, but “Our Lady’s
Apostolate”! His website states:
“Shortly following the formation of Our
Lady's Apostolate, Father Gruner began publishing the Fatima Crusader
magazine. In 1980, Pope John Paul II directly encouraged Father Gruner in his
Wow,
he must be some “priest” to run “Our Lady’s Apostolate” – the Apostolate of Our
Lady herself! – as well as her Radio
Program, her magazine and her Book Service. Does anyone fail to see how presumptuous –
and arguably blasphemous – this is? Oh,
never mind… it’s okay… I almost forgot… Gruner is, according to his Apostolate
(i.e. “Our Lady’s” Apostolate), “the Fatima Priest”!
In
truth, this is simply propaganda from a false prophet, and that is why
“Fr.” Gruner has had such an influence on what people think about
Besides
being wickedly presumptuous, this propaganda brainwashes people just like the
propaganda from the mainstream media.
When they hear this stuff over and over – this is “Our Lady’s
apostolate” and “Our Lady’s magazine” and “Our Lady’s Book Service” – they are
often brainwashed to follow everything he says on Fatima, support him
vigorously (for who wouldn’t want to support Our Lady?) or consider Gruner to
be Our Lady’s personal representative.
Since people are so gullible, it has been a major factor in how big his
apostolate has become. That is why his
apostolate continues to use this type of propaganda so often. It is why so many have been brainwashed not
to consider anything on this issue that doesn’t conform to “Fr.” Gruner’s
views.
By
the way, Gruner stated in one of his letters that he wants to send the book
“Fatima Priest” (which is the story of his life) to every “Bishop” in the
country! What a complete waste. The book Fatima
Priest, which is replete with pictures of Gruner from throughout his life
including as a baby, which is basically all about him and what a hero he
supposedly is, has been translated into various languages to spread the “Good
News” of Nicholas Gruner around the world.
All
of this explains why Gruner consistently promoted pictures of Antipope John
Paul II in his magazine for years (in a positive light) after he was aware of
John Paul II’s apostasy. For Gruner, it
wasn’t about telling people the truth; it was about keeping himself popular and
seen as a hero with a somewhat mainstream “Catholic” audience – by promoting
John Paul II and Fatima at the same time.
Only a very wicked man would not have denounced John Paul II once
he became aware of his apostasy, and that’s exactly what Nicholas Gruner is.
