The 5 Sins Against the Immaculate Heart, Part IV: Leading Children Away from the Blessed Mother

Author: World Apostolate of Fatima, USA December 11, 2025 Duration: 29:39
In this fourth part of the Five Blasphemies series, Barb Ernster and Katie Moran talk about the serious offense of keeping children away from the Blessed Mother or teaching them to fear or reject her. They share Scripture, personal insights, and experiences that show how the enemy tries to influence children early—and why introducing them to Mary helps form hearts rooted in faith, purity, and protection. They also highlight helpful resources for families: • Fatima Friends Adventure Guide — a fun and meaningful way to teach children about Mary, Fatima, Marian Consecration, and the Fatima children.• Passport + Treasures of the First Saturday Devotion — an $8 set designed to support families and individuals joining the First Saturday Pilgrimage. Next week: The final episode of the series, covering the fifth blasphemy against the Immaculate Heart.
