Dear Friend,
Early First Saturday morning, which is dedicated to the Blessed
Virgin Mary, Cardinal Burke offered a Votive Mass of the Immaculate
Heart of Mary, from his private chapel in Rome, for the Operation
Storm Heaven Prayer Warriors, as well as all who submitted intentions.
The Holy Mass was live on Catholic Action’s Facebook and YouTube
Channels.
In the homily, Cardinal Burke:
Reminded us that there is tremendous confusion, division, error and
violence in our society and even in our church. We are called to pray
even more fervently to God for peace.
Elaborated on October being the month of the Holy Rosary and the
historical Muslim Battle at Lepanto. Pope Pius V called on Christians
throughout Europe to pray the Rosary, for a victory. The pope also
asked for Rosary Processions. It was through Our Lady of the Rosary
that the battle was won on October 7.
Thanked all Rosary Warriors for their dedication in praying the
Holy Rosary for the needs of the Church, especially in “Storming
Heaven" - to pray for peace, for the whole world, especially the peace
of Christ.
The homily begins at 31.20.
If you haven’t had a chance to
submit your prayer intentions for the Three Holy Masses, from October
6-8, which include the October 7 Feast Day of Our Lady of the Rosary
and the October 8 Feast Day of Our Lady of Good Remedy, please do so
now:
May Our Lady of Victory intercede
for our needs and the needs of Holy Mother Church.
Yours in the Sacred Heart of Jesus
and the Immaculate Heart of Mary,
Thomas McKenna
