“The children remained kneeling for a few moments in the marvelous light that enveloped them. Then our Lady made another request of them: “Pray the Rosary every day to obtain peace for the world, and the end of the war.”8 The children, in their innocence and simplicity and living far from the fields of battle, would have understood little about the harsh realities of the war. However, our Lady’s request that they daily pray the Rosary for peace was the only request she repeated in all six of her apparitions to the three visionaries. How powerful this prayer must be if it can obtain peace for the world. We, too, need to put into practice our Lady’s request to pray the Rosary daily for peace in our time and an end to the culture of death so prevalent today.”

“The angel invited the children to pray with him and taught them a prayer they had never known before. First he knelt down and bowed until his forehead touched the ground. Interestingly, this is the posture of prayer that Muslims generally use. It is certainly one that expresses great reverence to God. The children were so moved that they knelt with their foreheads to the ground as well. A caution is needed here. Not everyone who reads this book is ready to pray in the same manner as the angel, namely, with one’s forehead touching the ground.”
