Joseph Ratzinger will participate together with Pope Francis for the consecration of Ukraine and Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary: Monsignor made it known George Ganswein, personal secretary of the Pope Emeritus, as reported by the German news agency Cna. The event will take place on Friday March 25 at 5 p.m. at the Mater Ecclesiae Monastery. “Of course, the emeritus Pope Benedict XVI. responding to Pope Francis’ request by joining the prayer for the consecration of Russia and Ukraine to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Ganswein confirmed.
In fact, in recent days Bergoglio had invited all the bishops of the world to join in this act of consecration. This is also in response to the Ukrainian bishops’ request published on March 2: “In these hours of immeasurable pain and a terrible ordeal for our people, we, the Bishops of the Episcopal Conference of Ukraine, are spokesmen of unceasing and fervent prayer, sustained by our priests and consecrated persons, which reaches us from all Christians for the consecration of our faith Homeland and Russia” . Hence the “request” to Her Holiness to publicly perform the Act of Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary of Ukraine and Russia, as requested by the Blessed Virgin at Fatima”.
The act is carried out simultaneously by the churches of all continents. Therefore all the bishops of the world will do it. It also appears that the cardinal Konrad KrajewskiPapal almsgiver, will do it at the same time as the Pope’s envoy in Fatima. Among other things, Fatima brings with it a prophecy that sounds like a condemnation: either Russia will be converted or it will bring us rights at the ends of the earth.
