The FIRST SATURDAY of November, catholic men in Australia unite in praying the rosary publicly to make reparation for the offenses committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The month of November is dedicated to The Holy Souls in purgatory.
On the 1st of November the Church celebrates the Solemnity of All Saints, honoring all those faithful in heaven, the known and unknown saints.
November 2nd is the Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed, also known as All Souls Day, a day set aside to pray for all the dead. All Souls Day shifts the Church’s focus on praying for the Faithful Departed throughout November. This is expressed in public and private prayers but especially in the offering of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for the repose of souls.
Prayer of St. Gertrude the Great for the holy souls in purgatory:
Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal Church, those in my own home and within my family. Amen.
“Pray the rosary every day to obtain peace for the world and the end of the war.”
(First Apparition of Our Lady of Fatima – May 13, 1917)
Join us this coming first Saturday, 7th November 2026 – at one of the 13 locations around Australia — and every First Saturday of the Month — in response to the urgent request of Our Lady of Fatima: that mankind offer acts of reparation.
Today more than ever, Catholic men must give public witness to our faith, with firmness and courage. “Let us kneel, brothers, and give satisfaction as compensation for all the insults that are inflicted upon the Immaculate Heart of Mary… “
We encourage all participants to attend Holy Mass before the rosary (either at a local parish or the Cathedral) and to offer it in reparation as Our Lady asked.
We also invite all men — both those joining the public rosary crusades and those unable to be present — to pray for the Lord’s blessing upon this mission and to fast on the Friday before as a sacrifice for its success and the conversion of souls.

All for the greater Glory of God and honour of the Immaculate ❤️ 🔥✠
