Summary/Abstract: The encouragement to the New Evangelization in the teaching of St. John Paul II and Benedict XVI finds its confirmation and realization in the message of the Mother of God entrusted to three little shepherds: Lucia, Jacinta and Francisco in Fatima. Through their mediation Saint Mary reminded us that it is necessary to adore the Sacred Heart of Mary, to pray a rosary and to live in the spirit of sacrifice if we want to save ourselves and other people. Moreover, Pope John Paul II in his speech to the bishops in Portugal on May 13, 1991 said that thanks to Fatima we know that a prayer and penance are the most important things in the new evangelization. They are the most efficacious instruments in the spiritual battle “against evil rulers and of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places” (Ef 6,12).
