Ngemuva kokuthi iSonto likhiphe ngokushesha isimemezelo, waholelwa ohambweni oluya e Fatima lapho ucingo luzoqala khona 
uhlelo lokucabanga lwamanazaretha lwazalwa. Ebuyela eMexico, wathola indawo eceleni kwentaba lapho yena nabanye besifazane abambalwa baqala khona ukukhonza futhi benza inkokhelo kuJesu eSigrameni Esibusisiwe- ngemuva

IZULU EMHLABENI
Umuntu angakhangwa kalula yedwa ngobuhle obumangele, ukushona kwelanga okumangalisayo kwaseMexico, nomoya opholisayo. Kepha kuze kube yilapho umuntu engena esontweni elikhulu leMisa lapho kucaca khona ngokushesha: lena indawo lapho iZulu lithinta khona umhlaba. Ngabe yisikhumbuzo esikhulu esise-altare esibheke ezintabeni ezibabazekayo (esinye nje samathempeli amaningi lapho kwenziwa khona ukukhulekelwa okungapheli)? Ngabe ulwandle lwamaveyili aluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka namhlophe olucishe lufane “nokubukeka” kweNtombikazi uMariya? Ngabe yizwi elimangazayo neliyizingelosi kanye nemvumelwano evela kulaba besifazane abazinikele, abaziwa esifundeni ngokuthi “izindela eziculayo”?…. Ngokushesha ngangizokwazi ukuthola, ngoba kwakulapha, kulo “Muzi KaNkulunkulu”, ukuthi uMama Wethu wayengibiza ngalo Mkhosi Wokwenyukela esikhathini esidlule…
UMA INGANE YETHU IYAQALA…
“Ngicabanga ukuthi wena nabazali bakho kufanele nize eMexico,” kusho uJohn Paul, ongusomabhizinisi ongumKatolika waseCalgary, e-Alberta. “Ngizokundizela phansi. ngiyakuzwa kudingeka to come… ”UJohn Paul, usomabhizinisi onesibindi futhi ohlakaniphe kakhulu, wayevame ukubonwa ephethe iRosari ngesandla sakhe lapho engasebenzi, wayesiza ukuxhasa ngemali nokuhlela ukwakhiwa kwekhishi lesobho ezansi nendlu yezindela eMexico (kanjani lokho kwaba enye indaba ngokwayo). Wayesimema ukuba sihlanganyele namanye amaCanada asevele akhona ekwakheni. Wayekhuluma nendodakazi yami encane, uNicole, owayesanda kuqeda iminyaka emibili yomsebenzi wezithunywa zevangeli eNtshonalanga Canada. Ukulungiselela ukuya ekolishi kulokhu kuwa, wangabaza ukuthi uzoba nesikhathi noma cha. Wathi: “Ngizokhuluma nabazali bami futhi sithandaze ngakho.
Ngenkathi uNicole eletha isimemo esivulekile kimi, ngenza uhlu olusheshayo lomsebenzi wepulazi nowenkonzo epuletini lami, ngathi ukuhleka kancane, “Ukuphela kwendlela engingahamba ngayo uma UMama wethu waseGuadalupe uvele kimi!"
Ngobusuku obulandelayo, indodakazi yami yavela etafuleni lokudla futhi yamemezela ukuthi izofika hhayi ngiya eMexico. “Anginaso nje isikhathi,” kuphetha yena, ezwakala edumele. Ngaphumela ngaphandle ngiyolanda iposi, kwathi lapho ngiphindela ekhaya, ngavula i- 
ikhadi elivela komunye wabafundi bami. Ngaphambili, kwakunesithombe se- UMama wethu waseGuadalupe ipendwe ngomunye woSista beSociety of Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity eSan Diego. Indodakazi yami yakhamuluka, “NguMama Wethu, baba! ” Ngihlekile, ngangenzi isivumelwano esikhulu kakhulu (uhlangothi lwezintatheli ezingangabazeki lusabambelele kokudlule kwami).
Ngakusasa ekuseni, ngoMkhosi Wokwenyuka KukaMariya, indodakazi yami yathola umbhalo. Kwakuvela endodaneni kaJohn uDavid, umakhi osemncane wekhishi lesobho; wayesevele eseMexico. Uthumele uNicole isithombe somdwebo wesithombe se UMama wethu waseGuadalupe alinikwa ngamanazaretha ngalolo suku. “Bheka baba!” ebabaza. Ngalesi sikhathi, ngase ngiqala ukuzibuza, lapho umkami ememeza: “Udinga uphawu lwesithathu!” Ngibone kungcono ngithandaze ngakho konke lokhu, ngakho-ke ngivule ukufundwa kweMisa, futhi ukufundwa kokuqala ngalolo suku kwaba iSambulo 12, owesifazane wembethe ilanga -okuyiyona ndlela iSt. Juan Diego echaze ngayo UMama wethu waseGuadalupe:
… Izingubo zakhe zazicwebezela njengelanga, sengathi zithumela amaza okukhanya, futhi itshe, idwala ayemi kulo, kwabonakala sengathi likhipha imisebe. - UNican Mopohua, uDon Antonio Valeriano (c. 1520-1605 AD,), n. 17-18
Ngalokho, mina nendodakazi yami saya esontweni lakithi sathandaza iRosari ngaphambi kweSakramente elibusisiwe. Thina Wayazi it: sabizwa ukuba sihambe. Lapho sibuyela emotweni yethu, ngavula umsakazo (engivame ukuwushiya), futhi ingoma yokuqala eyadlalwa yayibizwa ngokuthi "Mexico." Ikhwaya yahamba into efana nokuthi, “Kuhle ukuthatha uhambo lokuya eMexico. ” Ngubani othi uMama wethu akanamancoko?
Kodwa kungani? Kungani uMama Wethu ngokungazelelwe angibizela kule ndawo ekude ebekwe ezintabeni zaseTecate? Emthandazweni wami ngosuku olulandelayo, ngezwa inkhulumomphendvulwano entsha eqala phakathi kowesifazane, nendodana yakhe, ingxoxo ebiqhubeka kusukela ngalolo suku. Ngifuna ukwabelana nawe ngeminye yemicabango, amagama athule, kanye nemicabango engizwe ukuthi ushiye enhliziyweni yami ngalolo suku futhi kusukela…
Ndodana yami encane, ngikubizela eMexico, ezweni laseGuadalupe lapho ngabonakala khona kuJuan omncane. Lapho, ngaveza uhlelo lukaNkulunkulu ngalezi “zikhathi zokuphela”, “owesifazane ogqoke ilanga” oyochoboza ikhanda lenyoka.
Lapha ngikubiza ukuthi uze uzolalela izwi lami elithambile, njengoba ngizokhuluma nenhliziyo yakho ekhathele ngikuvuselele empini yokugcina engaphambili. Uzohola izingane zami eziningi udabule ogwadule uye endaweni ephephile yokuphephela kwami. Kufanele usebenze, ndodana yami, ngakho-ke ngikubizela umsebenzi onzima osazowenza.
Ngangingazi ngaleso sikhathi ukuthi isigodlo sezindela esasibizelwa kuso sakhulelwa eFatima, leyo ndawo lapho uMama wethu avele khona futhi wamemezela ukuthi i-Immaculate Heart yakhe izoba khona isiphephelo sethu. Futhi, umqondo wokuqabuleka ngokomoya uzwakale umuhle, njengoba inkonzo ivame kakhulu eGetsemane. Ngabuye ngakhumbula izwi elinamandla iNkosi enginike lona eminyakeni eminingana edlule ngosuku engangibiza ngalo ngokusemthethweni 
kulo mbhalo ubuphostoli. Kwakuvela eSt. John Chrysostom:
Nina nilusawoti lomhlaba. Akukona okwenzelwe wena, kusho izwi, kepha kungenxa yomhlaba ukuthi izwi liphathiswe wena. Angikuthumeli emadolobheni amabili kuphela noma ayishumi noma amashumi amabili, hhayi esizweni esisodwa, njengoba ngithumele abaprofethi basendulo, kodwa ngaphesheya kolwandle nolwandle, emhlabeni wonke. Futhi lelozwe lisesimweni esidabukisayo… ufuna kulaba bantu lezo zimfanelo eziwusizo kakhulu futhi ezidingekayo uma bezothwala imithwalo yabaningi… abazokuba othisha hhayi nje basePalestine kuphela kodwa nabomhlaba wonke. Ngakho-ke, ungamangali, ukuthi ngikhuluma nawe ngihlukile kunabanye futhi ngikubandakanya ebhizinisini eliyingozi kangaka… lapho imisebenzi oyibekayo iba nkulu kakhulu, kufanele ushiseke ngokwengeziwe. Uma bekuthuka futhi bekushushisa futhi bekumangalela ngakho konke okubi, bangesaba ukuza phambili. Ngakho-ke uthi: “Ngaphandle kokuba uzilungiselele leyo nto, ngikukhethele ize. Iziqalekiso ziyakuba yisabelo sakho kepha ngeke zikulimaze futhi zimane zibe ngubufakazi bokuqina kwakho. Uma ngokwesaba, noma kunjalo, wehluleka ukukhombisa ukuphoqelela inhloso yakho, isimo sakho sizoba sibi kakhulu. ” —USt. UJohn Chrysostom, Imfundo yamahora, Umq. IV, k. 120-122
Amagama amnandi angaphakathi alo wesifazane aqhubeka…
