Why I Decided to Make a Lasting Gift to America Needs Fatima
I’ve known America Needs Fatima for more than fifteen years. It's an amazing group of men and women, totally committed to spreading Our Lady’s message. We all need the rosary. This country needs Our Lady of Fatima’s message. We need to find balance and order from the chaos that surrounds us every day. My husband Patrick and I pray the rosary every day. We’ve personally experienced the power and the calm which comes over us.
In 2019, Patrick and I went to Fatima in Portugal and attended Mass near the tree where Our Lady appeared to Lucia, Jacinta, and Francisco. I'm a planner, so after my dad passed away, I wanted to make sure we had all our affairs in order. I know it’s difficult to think about these things, but it’s also a reality.
It was time to update my will and consider which organizations to include, and I didn’t hesitate. I included a bequest to America Needs Fatima so they can continue their work even after I’m gone. I just told ANF about this bequest recently and they were so grateful. We need America Needs Fatima! We need them to spread the rosary and Blessed Mother’s message. Considering the pandemic and chaos we are in, our country needs Our Lady of Fatima and her Son Jesus more than ever before! I hope you’ll consider a gift in your will like I did. It’s very easy and it will make a lasting difference! - Erica W., Marstons Mills, Massachusetts
