Roses & Chains: La Salette, Fatima & The Urgency of Prophecy

About this sermon

What will we offer Our Lady—roses of prayer and reparation, or the weight of our sins? This traditional Catholic sermon reflects on Our Lady of La Salette, her tears, and the message entrusted to Maximin Giraud and Mélanie Calvat in 1846. The preacher explores the apparition’s warnings against blasphemy and the profanation of Sunday, interpreting the roses, chains, hammer, and pincers as invitations to examine our choices and make reparation. The sermon also draws connections with the Holy Face devotion, Sister Marie of St. Peter, and Fatima. It presents the preacher’s understanding of historical chastisements and emphasizes prayer, conversion, and responding to Our Lady’s maternal appeal. Its practical exhortation encourages the daily Rosary, Marian consecration, the Brown Scapular, the Five First Saturdays, and offering suffering for the conversion of sinners. Listen for a call to honor God’s name, keep Sunday holy, and turn toward Christ with a repentant heart. 00:00 Opening prayer 00:31 “Make this known to all my people” 00:56 Scripture, human dignity, and God’s repeated truths 01:22 God speaking through the prophets 02:03 La Salette in 1846 02:28 Maximin and Mélanie: unlikely messengers 02:58 The role of a prophet 04:01 Blasphemy and profaning the Lord’s Day 04:39 Our Lady’s tears, roses, and chains 05:35 What will you give her? 05:51 Prayer, suffering, and reparation 06:09 Mercy and Our Lady’s intercession 06:57 The crucifix, hammer, and pincers 07:51 Connections with Holy Face devotion 08:45 Sister Marie of St. Peter and communism 09:28 Connections with Fatima 10:00 Marian practices urged by the preacher 10:38 The bishop’s response and local repentance 11:22 The sermon’s account of crop failures and famine 12:49 Accounts of disease and infant mortality 13:42 Walnut and grape harvests 14:08 Repentance and mitigated chastisements 14:38 Conversion and promised blessings 15:07 Responding to Marian appeals today 16:13 Benedict XVI and Fatima’s continuing mission 16:29 The bishop’s appeal for penance 17:10 A final warning against indifference 17:27 Closing prayer 17:38 Sponsor: Real Estate for Life #OurLadyOfLaSalette #LaSalette #OurLadyOfFatima #Reparation #SensusFidelium Please say 3 Hail Marys for the priest. #OurLadyOfLaSalette #CatholicProphecy #MarianApparition #FatimaProphecy #CatholicFaith #Rosary #BrownScapular #TraditionalCatholic #CatholicChurch #Repentance #OurLady #CatholicHomily #SensusFidelium #OurLadyWeeps #TriumphOfMary #CatholicTruth #HeavenlyWarning #CatholicSermon #MarianDevotion #PrayTheRosary 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 ✝️ SUPPORT THE MISSION 🙏 Donate https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 📬 Free Catholic Newsletter https://sensusfidelium.com/newsletter/ 📰 Read on Substack https://sensusfidelium.substack.com/ ──────────────────── 📺 WATCH & READ 📺 Sensus Fidelium App https://sensusfidelium.tv/ 📚 Sensus Fidelium Press https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ 👕 Official Merchandise https://sensusfidelium.com/merchandise/ ──────────────────── 🤝 PARTNER WITH US 📣 Advertise on Sensus Fidelium https://sensusfidelium.com/advertise-with-sensus-fidelium/ 🎤 Invite Steve Cunningham to Speak https://sensusfidelium.com/speaking/ ⛪ Parish Formation & Consultation https://sensusfidelium.com/for-parishes/ ──────────────────── 🌎 CATHOLIC COMMUNITY ✝️ Trusted Catholic Businesses https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴
