Dear Friend,

On September 1st, against the backdrop of the architecturally inspiring St. Dominic’s Church in San Francisco, Archbishop Salvatore J. Cordileone graciously offered the monthly Operation Storm Heaven Holy Mass, livestreamed to tens of thousands of Rosary Warriors and faithful Catholics throughout the country and around the world. 

As a longtime collaborator and founding Episcopal Advisor for Catholic Action for Faith and Family, Archbishop Cordileone is filling in for Cardinal Burke in the Global Rosary Crusade while His Eminence continues to make progress in his recovery from the coronavirus. Everyone who took time to submit and update their prayer intentions had them included in the prayers of Archbishop Cordileone as he offered the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and recited the Holy Rosary afterwards. 

Then, in a September 6th  Washington Post op-ed, this same leading prelate of our Church expressed how disturbed he was to see yet another immediate and shameful uproar from some Catholic politicians now denouncing Texas’s new law banning abortions after the detection of a fetal heartbeat. 

In his op-ed, Archbishop Cordileone praised the example set by then-New Orleans Archbishop Joseph Rummel for his outspokenness and willingness to back up his faith with action when confronted with unjust racial discrimination. Rummel both threatened and applied serious Church penalties to numerous prominent Catholic segregationists in the early 1960s and would not remain silent in the face of such a massive injustice.

Having the honor to work with Archbishop Cordileone for many years, I know he is cut from the same cloth as Rummel. Therefore, I encourage every supporter of Catholic Action for Faith and Family to join me in offering our unwavering support to His Excellency as he and his fellow bishops deliberate on the proper course of action to confront the serious scandal of so-called “Catholic” politicians and their public rejection of the Church’s most fundamental teaching on the sanctity of human life. 

If you have not had a chance, take a moment to read the Archbishop’s Op-Ed published by the Washington Post. 

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

Your fellow Rosary Warrior in Christ,
Thomas J. McKenna
