Summary: Fatima expert (and
host) Father Nicholas Gruner and John Vennari
resume their discussion (from Program #850) about
Father Malachi Martin’s broadcast statements
on the Third
Secret of Fatima. Father Gruner explains
that the Third Secret of Fatima is a prophecy
that has already begun to be realized since 1960.
Summary: Father Nicholas Gruner and special guest John Vennari discuss what Father Malachi Martin had to say about the Third Secret of Fatima on the “Coast to Coast” radio program with Art Bell in 1998. Father Martin, a well-known writer who was trained as a Jesuit and had worked in the Vatican in the 1950’s as secretary to Cardinal Augustin Bea, read the Third Secret during the pontificate of Pope John XXIII.
Summary: Father Gruner discusses Cardinal Ratzinger’s
(now Pope Benedict XVI) comments on the Third Secret, published in Italy in the November 11, 1984 edition of Jesus magazine, which most people are not aware of. The Cardinal’s comments are very enlightening and very important to understand what’s going on in the Church today. Cardinal Ratzinger (as then Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith) has read the Third Secret, and so his comments are most authoritative.
Summary: Father Gruner continues his discussion (from Program #228) of Cardinal Ratzinger’s (now Pope Benedict XVI) very enlightening interview given in 1984 regarding the Third Secret. Cardinal Ratzinger has read the Third Secret and he granted a public interview, an extraordinary interview of several days’ length, regarding many topics in the Church. One of the things the interviewer asked the Cardinal about was the Third Secret of Fatima.
Summary: Father Gruner continues his discussion (from Program #229) of Cardinal Ratzinger’s
(now Pope Benedict XVI) comments on the Third Secret. In his 1984 interview with Jesus magazine, the Cardinal revealed that he had read the Third Secret and that the Secret refers to “dangers threatening the faith and the life of the Christian and therefore (the life) of the world.”
Summary: Italian journalist Solideo Paolini reports in detail on his meetings with Archbishop Capovilla, former personal Secretary of Pope John XXIII, in which Mr. Paolini obtained the crucial testimony of the Archbishop that there are two texts of the Third Secret.
Summary: In response to an alleged denial by Archbishop Capovilla of his explosive testimony previously given to Italian journalist Solideo Paolini — with explicit permission given to publish — concerning the existence of a yet-to-be disclosed part of the Third Secret of Fatima, Dr. Paolini makes several observations regarding this “denial”, first published in a women’s lifestyle and fashion magazine and coming ten months after the widespread publication of the Archbishop’s original declaration.
Summary: This document is a true copy of the contemporaneous documentation of Archbishop Loris F. Capovilla, former personal Secretary of Pope John XXIII, confirming the existence of the “Capovilla envelope” pertaining to the Third Secret of Fatima, which was kept in the papal apartment. Vatican Secretary of StateCardinal Bertone has never produced this envelope, even though Capovilla’s evidence has finally forced him to admit its existence.
Summary: This document is a translation of the contemporaneous documentation of Archbishop Loris F. Capovilla, confirming the existence of the “Capovilla envelope” pertaining to the Third Secret of Fatima, which was kept in the papal apartment.
Summary: An interview Italian journalist Solideo Paolini had with Archbishop Capovilla, former personal secretary to Pope John XXIII, in July 2006 may have been the catalyst for the ensuing confrontation between Vatican Secretary of StateCardinal Bertone and Antonio Socci, author of Il Quarto Segreto di Fatima (“The Fourth Secret of Fatima”) published in November 2006. When asked if there were two texts regarding the Third Secret, the Archbishop responded “Precisely so.” The Cardinal’s book, L’Ultima Veggente di Fatima (“The Last Visionary of Fatima”), published in May 2007, did not refute this comment nor any of Socci’s other evidence demonstrating that Bertone’s handling of the alleged “release” of the Third Secret in June 2000 was a cover-up.

for our times that Our Lady Herself has invested
with great graces. This interview also answers
many of the most pertinent questions pertaining
to the Message of Fatima.
Archbishop
Loris F. Capovilla, the still-living
secretary
to Pope John XXIII. The Archbishop
revealed
to Solideo Paolini that there are two
envelopes
and two texts pertaining to the
Third Secret
of Fatima, and that one of the
texts was
kept in the papal apartment inside
a larger
envelope (the “Capovilla envelope”)
on which Capovilla had written the dictation
of John XXIII (“I give no judgment”)
and the names
of all those to whom Pope
John had revealed its contents. Bertone
has never produced this envelope, even though
Capovilla confirmed its existence during
a telecast in September 2007 arranged by
Bertone himself.
Solideo
Paolini, the young Italian intellectual
to whom Archbishop Capovilla revealed the
existence of two different texts and envelopes
(the “Bertone
envelope” and the “Capovilla
envelope”) comprising the entirety
of the Third Secret.
Antonio
Socci, the Italian intellectual, journalist
and television host whose book The
Fourth
Secret of Fatima concludes: “[T]hat there is a
part
of the Secret not revealed and
considered
unspeakable is certain. And
today — having
decided to deny its
existence—the
Vatican runs the risk of
exposing itself
to very heavy pressure
and blackmail.”
The
publication of Fourth
Secret reignited
the
Third Secret controversy and forced
the
Vatican to attempt to answer Socci’s
overwhelming evidence demonstrating
a cover-up
of a text of
the Third Secret.
