NEIGHBORHOOD
FAMILY ROSARIES
"Pray the Rosary every day in honor of Our Lady of the Rosary, in order to obtain peace for the world" and "Sacrifice yourselves for sinners"
- Our Lady of Fatima
Why Ave Maria?
Each time the name of the town is uttered, the words of St. Gabriel are recalled and the Hail Mary is begun. How could there be a better place to answer Our Lady’s call than the town named for her Annunciation? ​
Here, in the town dedicated to Our Blessed Mother from its very inception is the place we can build the epicenter of Marian devotion. ​
​
Together, through every Rosary, every Sacrifice, every Consecration, every First Saturday Devotion, we can send millions of rays of light and love to heaven. ​In return, mercy and blessings will be showered on Ave Maria and the world.

Our Lady of Fatima
Our Lady of Fatima said "Pray, pray very much, and make sacrifices for sinners; for many souls go to hell, because there are none to sacrifice themselves and pray for them."
​
​​
Our Lady of Fatima gave us the plan for peace and salvation of souls.
-
Devotion and Consecration to Mary's Immaculate Heart
-
Daily prayer, in particular the rosary
-
Sacrifice and reparation
After witnessing a horrifying vision, Mary told the children:
​"You have seen hell where the souls of poor sinners go. To save them, God wishes to establish in the world devotion to my Immaculate Heart. If what I say to you is done, many souls will be saved and there will be peace.
"Sacrifice yourselves for sinners, and say many times, especially when you make some sacrifice: O Jesus, it is for love of You, for the conversion of sinners, and in reparation for the sins committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary."
(Our Lady of Fatima)
