Pius X’s Vision Confirms It: The Secret of Fatima Has Not Yet Been Fulfilled

Pius X’s Vision Confirms It: The Secret of Fatima Has Not Yet Been Fulfilled

In 1909, Saint Pius X was receiving a group of Franciscan friars when he had a vision that shook him: a pope leaving Rome and, as he left the Vatican, walking over the bodies of his own priests. Eight years later, at Fatima, three young shepherds saw a strikingly similar scene: a bishop dressed in white passing through a city half in ruins, praying for the dead, before being killed together with bishops and priests.

In this video we place the two visions side by side, starting from the Church’s own official documents:

Pius X’s first encyclical, E supremi (1903);
Sister Lucia’s original handwritten manuscript of the third part of the Secret, dated January 3, 1944;
Lucia’s 1982 letter to John Paul II;
the words of Benedict XVI in 2010: “We would be mistaken to think that Fatima’s prophetic mission is complete.”

Why did the Church keep the Third Secret hidden for forty years? What is still waiting to be fulfilled? And why is Fatima, in the end, a prophecy of hope?

Let us pray together for the Pope and for the Church: write your Amen in the comments.
