## Introducing the Prayer

Good afternoon, this is Bill Young. Welcome to the Prayer and Lunch podcast. Today we are offering a special prayer of sacrifice that Our Lady of Fatima gave a little more than a hundred years ago, on July 13, 1917. I would like us to pray together.

## The Purpose of the Prayer

This prayer is intended for the conversion of souls and for reparation for the sins committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary. It calls us to unite our hearts with Jesus’ love and to offer our own sacrifices for the salvation of others.

## Prayer of Sacrifice

Lord Jesus, we come before You with humble hearts, asking for the grace to love You more deeply. Through the intercession of Our Lady of Fatima, grant us the conversion of sinners and the healing of our world. May our sacrifices be pleasing to You, and may they bring about reparation for the wounds inflicted upon the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Amen.

*Through prayer and sacrifice, we join with Mary’s call to bring about conversion and reparation in the world.*
