Children, Help My Heart to Triumph Paperback – May 3, 1996

This exquisite (but currently out-of-print) book, given an Imprimatur, is a most excellent tool for gently and effectively teaching children about Our Lady of Fatima and the relevance of this apparition for today. It walks children through what it means to consecrate oneself to Jesus through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and includes a beautifully illustrated novena (a nine-day prayer) which enables children to live the message of Fatima in a way that will impact our world for the better. The "before" and "after" illustrations in the novena depict nine scenarios in which people need Divine intervention, demonstrating how children's loving prayers and sacrifices, offered through, with, and in Jesus, contribute toward bringing about the grace of conversion and transformation in Christ. A coloring book with the same "after" illustrations provides a way for children to celebrate their victory each day of the novena.
