Prayers and reflections will focus on the special message and promise God the Father relayed to Italian nun, mystic, and visionary, Mother Eurgenia Elisabetta Ravasio (1907 – 1990), that said, “All those who call Me by the name of the Father, even if only once, with confidence and love, will not perish, but will be sure of their eternal life among the chosen ones.” 

God was believed to have appeared on two occasions -- on July 1, 1932 and on Aug. 12, 1932 -- to Mother Eurgenia to relay His message, and to request for a day to be dedicated to Him under the title Father of All Mankind.
