Lepanto was won.

And now, fast-forwarding a few centuries: Boko Haram has been driven into the woods.

Holy God, we thank you for your infinite mercy.

Our Lady of Victory, pray for us.

Too bad they didn’t help Constantinople fight off the heathen turks.

(from the article):" October 7th is the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary. This feast celebrates the naval victory of the Holy League fleet at Lepanto
which in 1571 saved Christian Civilization from defeat at the hands of the Ottoman Empire.
Pope Pius V knew well the tremendous importance of resisting the aggressive expansion of the Ottomans and the certain consequences of defeat at their hands."

First of all, thank you !
The Battle of Lepanto stopped an overt, aggressive and hostile conquest of the Ottoman Empire over a previously divided Christendom.
Today, we are faced with a similar, although a covert, assault on Christianity and Western Civilization which is being encouraged by international globalist powers,
and our own Vichy government leadership who advocate infiltration under the guise of Christian benevolence' ! and misguided national cultural heritage.
The Battle of Lepanto was real and dangerous; the battle today is just as real and dangerous, although the Ottoman Empire is now within our borders, and destroying from within.
The battle continues, ..even after 1400 years.
Pray the rosary for moral courage, strength, and fortitude in times such as this, as well as in times of adversity.
The Battle of Lepanto demonstrates and proves the power of prayer as well as the power of praying the rosary.

For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. Hebrews 4:12 NASB

The writer of Hebrews does not note anything about praying the rosary.

That day I decided to become Our Lady’s soldier too and I made sure to carry those beads at all times.

1You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2The things which you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also. 3Suffer hardship with me, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. 4No soldier in active service entangles himself in the affairs of everyday life, so that he may please the one who enlisted him as a soldier. 2 Timothy 2:1-4 NASB

Paul was a soldier for Christ....not Mary.

The astute reader will see this.
