"Queen of Peace" Prayer Cenacle
History
Fr. Stefano Gobbi while praying in the Chapel of the Apparitions in Fatima for some priests who, besides having given up their own vocations, were attempting to form an association in rebellion against the authority of the Roman Catholic Church; an interior voice (interior locutions) urged Fr. Gobbi to have confidence in the Immaculate Heart of Mary. He began to write down these messages (interior locutions) which he was receiving dating from July 1973 to December 1997, and are published in the book, “To the Priests, our Lady's Beloved Sons.”
Purpose
In her messages, our Lady insistently calls upon priests, religious and faithful to gather with her in fervent prayer in authentic cenacles as when the first apostles gathered with her in the Upper Room in Jerusalem awaiting the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Our Lady invites us to enter into the cenacle of her Immaculate Heart by means of our consecration. She calls us to form cenacles together with her and to multiply and spread them everywhere.
Cenacle Format
It consists basically of the following:
- Invocation to the Holy Spirit.
- Recitation of the Holy Rosary.
- Prayers for our Holy Father, the Pope.
- Reading and meditation on one of the messages given in the book, “To the Priests, Our Lady's Beloved Sons.”
- The Act of Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
You can also include on your own any of the following: Holy Mass, Benediction, Liturgy of the Hours, Silent Prayer, Holy Hour, Hymns.

Our Lady’s Queen of Peace Prayer Cenacle of the Marian Movement of Priests is calling us to experience joy and peace at Our Lady of Joy Parish. We meet every Monday morning after the 8 AM Mass. We say the rosary and Divine Mercy Chaplet in church and then proceed to the Parish Hall for prayers and readings to entrust ourselves to Mary’s Immaculate Heart in the spirit of little children. We pray for our priests as well as for the sick, suffering and holy souls. Please join us!
All are invited! Fr. Jess and other priests will participate as their schedules permit. To learn more, go to www.mmp-usa.net.
