Rosary Warriors...
Storm Heaven with Prayer!

 
Dear Friend,

Pope Francis highlights the Holy Rosary in May!

On April 24, the Holy Father wrote an open letter to Catholic faithful of the world. In it he stated, “the month of May is approaching, a time when the People of God express with particular intensity their love and devotion for the Blessed Virgin Mary. It is traditional in this month to pray the Rosary at home within the family. The restrictions of the pandemic have made us come to appreciate all the more this “family” aspect, also from a spiritual point of view.”

So, on this Friday, the 1st of May, please remember that we ‘as we do the first day of each month’ band together from the four corners of the earth to raise our united voice to Heaven. The 152,128 Rosary Warriors will be reciting the Holy Rosary and storming Heaven with prayer in union with the Holy Mass being celebrated by Cardinal Burke.

If you have intentions that you would like to submit, please click here!

His Eminence will be celebrating Mass at 7:00 am in Rome, Italy, and you are able to join via Livestream (you can join by registering here). If you are unable to pray at exactly the same time Cardinal Burke celebrates Mass and prays the Rosary, be sure to pray your Rosary at some time on the 1st of May (your local time). 

When you pray your Rosary, please remember to pray for the intentions of all the Rosary Warriors, just as they are also praying for your intentions.

May 1 Storm Heaven will be very, very special!

I am excited to share with you an occasion of the utmost importance for Catholics across North America.

Archbishop José H. Gomez of Los Angeles and president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) has announced that the U.S. bishops will join the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops on May 1 in renewing the consecrations of the two nations to the care of our Blessed Mother. We are asking Rosary Warriors and all Catholics in North America as well as around the world to Storm Heaven and together unite our prayers with the bishops of these conferences for this intention.

This May 1, consecrating our nation to Our Lady under the title, Mary, Mother of the Church is a meaningful and powerful way to pray for an end to the coronavirus and the challenges it has brought to all.

Just imagine the reverberations traveling throughout the world from the deepest seas and across the tips of every mountaintop to heaven as you and I take this occasion to unite our rosary intentions with Cardinal Burke and hundreds of thousands of Rosary Warriors throughout the world on a day coinciding with this ceremony of re-consecration  and prayers of the episcopal leadership of the United States and Canada.

 “I want to encourage everyone to rediscover the beauty of praying the Rosary at home in the month of May.”  ~Pope Francis stated in his April 24 letter

Let us truly storming heaven with prayer!

For this consecration of the United States and Canada to be truly fruitful, we cannot forget the importance of sincere repentance for the sins of our culture and of firm resolution to amend our lives according to Our Lord's teaching. 

We must certainly ask Our Most Merciful Mother Mary to aid us against the Coronavirus and its material and physical effects on our lives, but we must remember the labor pains Our Blessed Mother suffered for us watching Our Lord, her Firstborn Son, bleed to death on His cross because of our sins and the sins of the culture in which we live. Let us pray that our sinful world may be converted, starting with ourselves, lest we be like ungrateful children who speak to Our Loving Mother only when we need a favor.

As we storm Heaven together, please remember to pray for the conversion of sinners throughout the world, as well as for the following intentions:

• For Holy Mother Church;
• For our families and the family institution that is being so attacked today;
• For Catholics all over the world to heed Our Lady of Fatima's message of repentance, that Catholics may turn back to loving and serving God;
• For a swift end to the Coronavirus pandemic;
• For healing of those who've been infected by COVID-19;
• For the souls of those who've died of COVID-19;
• For the protection of the elderly, those with pre-existing conditions, and all who are most vulnerable to the Corona Virus;
• For those afflicted with anxiety and despair caused by the Corona Outbreak, that they may find hope and peace in Our Lord, no matter what crosses they are called to bear;
• For a return to order in society, not merely in terms of temporal economic order, but above all in terms of spiritual and moral order, that civilization may be subject to the Gospel of Our Lord as taught by the One, Holy Catholic Church;
• To stop the culture of death in all its forms and establish the Culture of Life in all souls, in all minds and in all hearts;
• For the conversion of all sinners to the True Faith;
• For all the personal intentions that are in the silence of everyone’s hearts and for those submitted to Operation Storm Heaven.

May Our Lady of the Rosary bless you and your loved ones now and always!
