Please Click Here to Submit Your Storm Heaven Intentions Today!

Dear Friend,

Have you submitted your intentions for the Holy Mass and Rosary that Cardinal Burke will offer privately on Tuesday, October 1? There will be no livestream. 

His Eminence will offer the Holy Mass for the intentions of the Operation Storm Heaven Rosary Warriors, as well as the intentions that you will submit, most especially those that are deep within your heart.

Let’s meditate on what our shepherd, Cardinal Burke has said about devotion to the Holy Rosary: 

“Although the Feast or Memorial of Our Lady of the Rosary is celebrated on October 7th, the entire month of October is dedicated to fostering this most highly prized devotion to Mary, which she herself has given to us.”

“First, the message of Our Lady of Fatima urges us to honor her by praying the Rosary every day. Second, when Our Lady concluded her apparitions at Fatima on October 13, 1917, Our Lord granted a remarkable confirmation of the apparitions in the Miracle of the Sun. Third, in asking us to pray daily the Rosary, Our Lady indicated a specific intention: peace. Pope Saint John Paul II, echoing Our Lady’s messages to us at Fatima, explained that “the Rosary is by its nature a prayer for peace” (Rosarium Virginis Mariae, 40).”

His Eminence speaks of peace and the Holy Rosary:

“The peace for which we pray, while reciting the prayer of the Rosary is not a peace given by this world (cf. Jn 14, 27), but rather the peace obtained for us by the blood of the Cross of Jesus Christ (cf. Col 1, 20).”

“The victory of peace is ultimately the victory over Satan who, since the sin of our First Parents, never ceases to tempt us to commit sin. It is the victory worked by God the Father through the Redemptive Incarnation of His only-begotten Son. The Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God, is the privileged instrument through which God the Father sent God the Son into the world to win for us the victory. She is the woman whose Son crushes the head of the serpent, Satan, as God the Father promised after the sin of Adam and Eve (cf. Gen 3, 15). She continues to be the channel by which the grace of Christ wins the victory over sin in our daily lives.”

Cardinal Burke explains why we should pray the Holy Rosary daily and the victory of peace:

“By praying the Rosary daily, we draw near to the Mother of Our Savior, who teaches us, as she taught the wine stewards at the Wedding Feast of Cana: “Do whatever He [Jesus] tells you” (Jn 2, 5). She, whom Our Savior gave to us as our Mother – the Mother of Divine Grace – helps us to stand faithfully, with her, beneath the Cross of Our Lord, one in heart with her Immaculate Heart in the glorious pierced Heart of Jesus (cf. Jn 19, 25-27). With her, we share in the Triumph of the Cross.”

“The victory of peace, sought through the Immaculate Heart of Mary by praying the Holy Rosary and attained in the Sacred Heart of Jesus, overcomes the confusion, error and division, all the works of the Evil One, which so fiercely attack today the world and the Church.”

“For that reason, I urge you today, if you are not already doing so, to pray the Holy Rosary, seeking the intercession of the Mother of God for the victory of peace, peace in your soul, peace in the world, peace in the Church.”

I would like to take advantage of this opportunity to thank you for being part of Cardinal Burke's Rosary Crusade Operation Storm Heaven and for continuing your prayers for many graces to be bestowed upon His Eminence. 

Finally, if you know others who have intentions and would like to submit them, and to help others join Operation Storm Heaven as we march to our goal of reaching One Million Rosary Warriors, please forward this email to your family and friends and ask them to click here.

Yours in the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary,
