The Power of Intercessory Prayer: Lessons from St. Monica & St. Rita

Author: World Apostolate of Fatima, USA August 28, 2025 Duration: 31:31
In this episode of Fatima Today, hosts Barb Ernster and Katie Moran reflect on the incredible power of intercessory prayer, drawing from the lives of St. Monica and St. Rita. Their perseverance and patience remind us never to give up praying for the conversion of loved ones, as God rewards faithful hearts in ways beyond imagination—just as Monica’s prayers led to the conversion of her son, St. Augustine, who became one of the great doctors of the Church.   We also invite you to join us for our Pilgrimage to Fatima this December—a grace-filled journey to deepen your devotion and experience the heart of the Fatima message. Don’t miss this opportunity to walk where Our Lady appeared and to strengthen your faith in a profound way.   And stay tuned for our next episode, where we’ll highlight the lives of Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati and Bl. Carlo Acutis, and the exciting path toward their canonization.

In a world that often feels fragmented, Fatima Today offers a space for reflection and connection, rooted in a century-old message of peace. This podcast, presented by the World Apostolate of Fatima, USA, explores how the spiritual lessons from Fatima remain urgently relevant to our modern challenges. Each episode delves into contemporary issues-from personal anxiety and family life to broader social concerns-seeking pathways forward illuminated by faith, hope, and conversion. You’ll hear thoughtful discussions and insights that bridge timeless devotion with the realities of daily living, fostering a deeper understanding of Christian spirituality. Rather than offering simple answers, the conversations invite listeners into a meaningful examination of how to live with purpose and compassion today. Tune in to this thoughtful podcast for a series that feels both a comfort and a call to action, encouraging personal and communal renewal through the enduring promise of Fatima.
