"Make sacrifices for sinners, and say often, especially while making a sacrifice: "O Jesus, this is for love of Thee, for the conversion of sinners, and in reparation for the offenses committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary."
This part of Our Lady's Peace Plan involves offering up our hardships to God for the forgiveness of sins and in reparation to Mary’s Immaculate Heart. In addition, it’s a good idea to say prayers and do penance for other people’s transgressions as well as for our own.
As Our Lady told Lucia, Francisco and Jacinta, after they had seen Hell, "Pray, pray, a great deal, and make sacrifices for sinners, for many souls go to hell because they have no one to make sacrifices and pray for them."
Keep in mind that your sacrifice can be as simple as giving up some small pleasure, such as a candy bar. Other examples would include changing a diaper, letting someone in front of you in line at the grocery store or passing on an extra helping of food, remembering always to briefly tell Jesus and Mary that you are doing this to make amends for sins. Acts of charity and forgiveness towards others can also be offered up and united with our Lord's ultimate sacrifice on the cross, to save souls.
