“The final confrontation between the Lord and the kingdom of satan will be on the issues of family and Matrimony.”

In an interview to the La voce di Padre Pio, in March 2015, Cardinal Carlo Cafarra speaks about a letter he wrote to sister Lucia asking for prayers. At that time, Saint John Paull II, Pope, had entrusted to him the task of founding what is now the Pontifical John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family, of which this Cardinal is, nowadays, emeritus professor.

«At the beginning of that work that was entrusted to me by the Servant of God John Paull II, — explains Cafarra — I wrote to sister Lucia, through the bishop, because it was not allowed to do it directly. Inexplicably, even though I was not expecting an answer – because I was only asking for prayers for the project –, after a few days I received a long handwritten letter from her, which has been preserved in the Institute’s archive; in this letter, one can read:

“The final confrontation between the Lord and the kingdom of satan will be on the issues of family and matrimony. Do not be afraid – she adds – because whoever works for the sanctity of matrimony and the family will always, by all means, be fought and hated, because this is a cornerstone.” Then, concluding: “[…] but Our Lady has already crushed his head.”

Speaking with Saint John Paull II, we could see that he knew that this was a central issue, because it touches the column that supports Creation, the truth about the relation between man and woman and between generations. If the central pillar is touched, the whole building collapses, and that is what we are seeing now, because we are in this moment and we know it».
