Is Mary the one that is supposed to be saying this?

Yep. I guess anyone who's not Catholic is out of luck.

BTW, Catholics are not required to believe ANY of these apparitions, as they are all considered private. Those which are approved by the Church (a mere bishop can, in this case, be considered "the Church") are supposed to be free of error, but I've got questions about this one.

Fatima, and LaSalette, and apparitions to Simon Stock have stood the test of time.

This one has not.

From the article: Only I can prevent the disaster. Whoever entrusts themselves to me will be saved."

Mine: Is Mary the one that is supposed to be saying this?

Yours: Yep. I guess anyone who's not Catholic is out of luck.

The reason I asked is it seems from the article that only Mary can prevent the disaster???? You have to entrust yourself to Mary to be saved????

What happened to God? Did Mary take over God's role? My trust and faith is in God, Our Heavenly Father, and that is to whom I pray.

Who is Simon Stock? I would have said that the message of Lourdes has stood the test of time. It is very questionable to make that claim about La Salette.

Even the Catholic's are out of luck. I focused on this sentence immediately. I find it out of context with marian thought. It seems Mary is substituting herself to GOD: I doubt the Virgin would do this. Ecce ancilla domini; behold I am the handmaid of the Lord, is Mary's call to mankind.
