JOIN THE ONE MILLION ROSARIES CAMPAIGN

On October 7, 1571, the European Christian fleet won a monumental naval victory over the Turks who threatened invasion. The Turks had a distinct material advantage— the finest naval fleet on Earth against a pitiful alliance of Catholics. But the Catholics had the greatest advantage of all— the Holy Rosary.

Pope St. Pius V called for all of Europe to pray the Rosary for victory. And when the Catholics, against all natural odds, surprised the world with a victory, October 7 became a feast day of the Church, eventually being called “Our Lady of the Rosary.”

Today, we are up against a similar fate. We have a government in America, the most powerful country in the world, which openly promotes the murder of unborn babies. We have a president who holds the most extreme views on abortion in the history of our country. With each passing bill, more and more pro-life rights are being stripped away, and our culture is being more firmly entrenched in death.

What we fail to realize is that our ragtag, pitiful alliance does indeed have a distinct advantage through prayer, especially through our Lady’s intercession.

On the Feast of Pentecost- May 31, 2009, please join me in offering a rosary for the conversion of pro-abortion legislators in our country, especially our president. Remember that Pentecost is the coming of the Holy Spirit upon the Church; may He give us the courage to stand for what is right in the face of enormous opposition.

Our goal is to have ONE MILLION ROSARIES offered on May 31! Imagine the amount of grace that will be available to our country. Please pass the message along to everyone you know.
