33 Days to Morning Glory - Day 22

Julie Mussleman & Marybeth Finster join Mary Graham for 33 Days to Morning Glory Day TWENTY-TWO (03/12/15) Mary's Gift of Mercy Today we begin the fourth week of our preparation for Consecration to Jesus through Mary. In the fourth week we will focus on Blessed Pope John Paul the Great, one of my personal heroes. Today we read about the apparitions of Mary in Fatima, Portugal in 1917 and how Our Lady requested that Russia be consecrated to her Immaculate Heart. Pope John Paul II was the Pope to suffer an assassination attempt on the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima May 13, 1981. He believed that it was Mary's intercession that saved his life and in return 3 years later, he consecrated the world to her Immaculate Heart. But that wasn't enough. Pope John Paul then gave the world the Feast of Divine Mercy.
