What is the World Apostolate of Fatima?
The World Apostolate of Fatima is a movement of millions of persons throughout the world
responding to the requests made by the Blessed Virgin Mary at Fatima, Portugal in 1917:

Through three small shepherd children Our Lady spoke to the world,
"Do not offend the Lord our God anymore, because He is already so much offended.”
She showed them a vision of hell where the souls of poor sinners go and said,
"To save them, God wishes to establish in the world devotion to my Immaculate Heart."
Our Lady warned of coming tragic world events if Her message was ignored:
"To prevent this,” She asked for, "the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart,
and the Communion of Reparation on the First Saturdays.”
She requested the daily Rosary for world peace to draw us to personal conversion and to:
"Pray, pray very much, and make sacrifices for sinners; for many souls go to hell,
because there are none to sacrifice themselves and to pray for them.”
The Child Jesus later appeared to Sr. Lucia and requested reparation on five consecutive first
Saturdays for sins committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary.  Jesus said He desired us,
"...to place the devotion to this Immaculate Heart alongside the devotion to My Sacred Heart.”

The Blue Army was formed in 1947 to spread Our Lady's message given at Fatima,
a message of conversion: prayer, penance, and devotion to Mary.
It has since become an international apostolate.

As a part of this apostolate, the Portland Division works throughout western Oregon to help
a world yet to respond adequately to Our Lady's requests. By spreading Her message, we hope to
bring attention to the root cause of this world's problems and sufferings, and thus prioritize
our lives by striving to lead a life of holiness as individuals and within our families.

Mission Statement:
In order to establish devotion to Mary's Immaculate Heart in the world, and to place this devotion
alongside devotion to the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, we desire to live and spread
Our Lady's Fatima message, cease offending God, pray, and make reparation for sin. 
By signing the Blue Army Pledge, and trusting in Mary's intercession, we hope to obtain the
salvation of souls, the triumph of Mary's Immaculate Heart, and an era of peace for all mankind.
