“Have compassion on the Heart of your Most Holy Mother covered with the thorns with which ungrateful men pierce it at every moment, and there is no one to remove them with an act of reparation”.

Spoken to Sister Lucia by our Lord December 10, 1925 

The First Saturdays Devotion,

also known as the “Five First Saturdays” is a special request by Our Lord and Our Lady to make reparation for all the sins against the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Our Lady promised personal salvation if we fulfill the five consecutive First Saturdays.

However, we should continue to fulfill them every month to console the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and make reparation for the sins of others. The continued practice of the First Saturdays will help bring about a period of peace and the salvation of many souls as Our Lady promised (Fatima, July 13, 1917).

There are four practices in order to make reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary:

• Confession*
• Receive Holy Communion*
• Pray the Rosary*
• Keep her company for 15 minutes while meditating on the mysteries of the Rosary*

* Each of these practices need to be done with the intention of making reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
