Make America Holy Again as we Unite at the Foot of the Cross!
The way to GREATNESS is the way of HOLINESS!
This Novena for Our Nation will begin on August 15th, the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and will end on October 7th, the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary. The intention for which we are praying together is: “Heavenly Father, Make America Holy Again as we Unite at the Foot of the Cross! Mary, Queen of Peace, pray for us!”
President Ronald Reagan once famously stated, “We maintain the peace through our strength; weakness only invites aggression.” St. Paul calls us to be “good soldiers of Christ Jesus” (2 Timothy 2:3). This “Novena for Our Nation” is about calling out to God and our resolve to become strong in God’s supernatural power; the only power capable of standing athwart the aggressive satanic forces of evil.
“Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” (Eph 6:10-12)
There is much at stake in our nation. Powerful, diabolical forces are stopping at nothing to throw everything they have at whatever is good, holy and Godly in our society. These forces are doing everything possible to tear down the moral fabric of our society, seeking the ruin of our souls and the souls of our loved ones. We. Need. To. Respond! The only effective response is to know we need to be well-trained and well-connected to God and His supernatural power so that we can engage this fight to restore our country as One Nation Under God once again.
With the powerful intercessory prayers of Our Lady, the time is now to UNITE and to FIGHT and grow STRONG in God’s supernatural power!
Join together in praying the 54 Day Rosary Novena for Our Nation!

October 7: currently celebrated as the feast day of Our Lady of the Rosary, originally as Our Lady of Victory in thanksgiving for her aid in the defeat of the [Moslem] Ottoman empire fleet. The Pope urged everyone to pray rosaries for a victory for the much smaller European [Catholic] force. The Ottoman navy never recovered from this defeat.
