Mission Statement

Using modern technology, our mission is dedicated to bringing the devotion of Our Lady’s Immaculate heart into people’s homes, to the public square and to the world.
We humbly invite you to join us.


“Christ will conquer through her, because He wants the Church’s victories now and in the future to be linked to her”  Saint John Paul the Great.

Act of Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary

Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, and tender Mother of all people,
I consecrate myself to you and to your Immaculate Heart,
and recommend to you my family, my country, and the whole human race.

Please accept my consecration, dearest Mother, and use me as you wish
to accomplish your designs upon the world.

O Immaculate Heart of Mary, Queen of Heaven and earth,
rule over me, and teach me how to allow the
Heart of Jesus to rule and triumph in me and around me,
as it has ruled and triumphed in you. Amen.

 

OUR MISSION (With a special thanks to The Blue Army)


In July of 1917, Our Lady told the Fatima Visionaries : “You have seen hell where the souls of poor sinners go. To save them, God wishes to establish devotion to my Immaculate Heart. If what I say to you is done, many souls will be saved and there will be peace…but if people do not cease offending God, a worse war will break out… …To prevent this, I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart, and the Communion of reparation on the First Saturdays.”

Sister Lucia took very seriously this part of the Secret. By dedicating ourselves to the Immaculate Heart of Mary though the Five First Saturdays devotion, wars, famines, and persecutions of the Church could be averted. “Peace or war depends on [the Five First Saturdays] devotion along with the Consecration,” she wrote. In a letter, she showed her concern that Our Lady’s request for this devotion was not being faithfully carried out:

“Our Lady promised to postpone the scourge of war if this devotion is spread and practiced. We see her putting off this chastisement in the measure that efforts are being made to spread it. But I am afraid that we are not doing all that we are able to, and that God, in no way satisfied, may raise the arm of His mercy and let the world be ravaged by this punishment, which will be as never has been, horrible, horrible!”

Devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the spread of this devotion worldwide is undoubtedly an essential part of the apparitions at Fatima.

Sister Lucia explained in her book, “Calls” from the Message of Fatima: God began the work of redemption in the Heart of Mary, given that it was through her “fiat” that the redemption began to come aboutThus we see that devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary must be established in the world by means of a true consecration through conversion and self-giving. In the same way, through the consecration, the bread and wine are converted into the Body and Blood of Christ, which were drawn with this very life from the Heart of Mary. Hence, it is that this Immaculate Heart must be for us a refuge and the way that leads to God.

This refuge and this way were proclaimed to all humanity immediately after the fall of our first parents. To the devil, who had tempted the first human beings, and had induced them to disobey the divine order they had been given, the Lord said: “I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel” (Gen. 3, 15). The ‘new generation’ God foretold would be born of this woman, and will triumph in the battle against the progeny of Satan, to the point of crushing its head. Mary is the Mother of this new generation, as if she were a new tree of life, planted by God in the garden of the world so that all her children can partake of her fruit.

The apparitions at Fatima are an exhortation to prayer as the path of “salvation of souls” and, the summons to penance and conversion.

Our Lady promised, “My Immaculate Heart will triumph,” in the end. What does this mean? Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, as Prefect for the Doctrine of the Faith, explained: The Heart open to God, purified by contemplation of God, is stronger than guns and weapons of every kind. The fiat of Mary, the word of her heart, has changed the history of the world, because it brought the Savior into the world, because, thanks to her Yes, God could become man in our world and remains so at all times. The Evil One has power in this world, as we see and experience continually; he has power because our freedom continually lets itself be led away from God. But since God himself took a human heart and has thus steered human freedom towards what is good, the freedom to choose evil no longer has the last word. From that time forth, the word that prevails is this: “In this world you will have tribulation, but take heart; I have overcome the world” (Jn 16, 33). The message of Fatima invites us to trust in this promise.

Our Mascot
As w
e continue to build the Mystic Post brand, we have added a Penguin to our logo. Pope Francis asks us to go to the fringes of society with our faith.  He implores us to seek its “peripheries”. The penguin symbolizes eternally advancing the Gospa’s message of peace and reconciliation throughout the world – including desolate terrains where penguins make their homes. 

Our Slogan:”Go Far”
Mystic Post believes we all have a unique mission in life. And inside of each of us, there exists a drive that moves us constantly on a path towards fulfilling that purpose.  
Our Blue Penguin, the one who lives so far away, is a symbol that life is a journey and that God is beside you all along the way. 

So “go far” on your journey and may you find joy and adventure in pursuit of your dreams.

A Special Note:

Mystic Post is growing rapidly thanks to our loyal readers, however, it is incredibly challenging to sustain our apostolic mission solely with digital advertising. If you support our apostolic mission of inspiring and encouraging Catholics to discover and help kind Jesus through Our Lady’s heart, we humbly invite you to contribute to our Benefactor  Campaign — either with a one-off contribution or monthly support.

By supporting us, you are working for Our Lady’s triumphant heart  and  for our Catholic faith. A dedicated team of Catholics like yourself runs Mystic Post. They need your help

Thank you, and welcome to the mission.


Pope John Paul II  “The victory if it comes, will come through Mary.”

“After my election as Pope, as I became more involved in the problems of the universal Church, I came to a similar conviction: on this universal level, if victory comes it will be brought by Mary. Christ will conquer through her, because He wants the Church’s victories now and in the future to be linked to her” 

The Triumph of the Immaculate Heart is also the triumph of the Church.  The Holy Father has understood and taught that She will bring the new springtime to the Church; then the faith will reappear, the Church will shine, and the heart of Christ will triumph.


Work for the triumph!

“Those who surrender completely to the Immaculate will burn with a powerful love that will set fire to all those around them and will cause many souls to burn with this same love.  This is how they will conquer the entire world and each particular soul for the Immaculate. This they will do as quickly as possible” (St. Maximilian Kolbe).

The personal consecration and an authentic life will knock down the structures of sin that exist in our hearts.  First, we must make sure of Her triumph in our hearts; this triumph will lead the way to Her triumph in society.

“Until the end of time, we must win the universe and each individual soul, now and in the future, for the Blessed Virgin, and through Her, for the Sacred Heart of Jesus.  Those souls will reach a much better and more profound love for the Sacred Heart than ever before. Through their love the world will be set on fire and consumed” (St. Maximilian Kolbe)

I think we should recognize the seriousness of the moment and how much depends on our response to the hour in which we live.  Her Immaculate Heart will triumph – how beautiful it would be to know that we were instruments, however small, of that triumph.  During our last trip to Fatima with our pilgrims, when saying our farewell to the Blessed Mother in the little chapel of apparitions, we were exhorted to “go and be apostles of her Immaculate Heart.”

In other words, we should respond to the call of Our Mother through the means She gives us to reach the triumph of Her Immaculate Heart, and we should, more than ever, make Her known and loved and use the means She gives us for our conversion and the era of peace.

Christ’s apostles took the good news of Jesus to far away places.  Here is a chart that illustrates where the apostles pursued their missionary work and where they ultimately died. As you can see they went to far away places.
