The presidential elections in November represent an epochal challenge, a biblical challenge, the outcome of which will be decisive not only for the United States of America but for the whole world.'
By Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò
Editors Note: The following is a note the Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò sent to the National Catholic Prayer Breakfast, which was held today. The event organizers declined to read it aloud at the event, which this year took place online. LifeSiteNews publishes it in full below.
September 23, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) With deep emotion I have learned that President Donald J. Trump will be taking part in the National Catholic Prayer Breakfast on 23 September.
On this occasion, Attorney General William Barr will receive the NCPBs Christifideles Laici Award (Christs Faithful Laity), named after the Apostolic Exhortation On the Laity by Pope John Paul II.
I would like to make myself present on this memorable occasion, in which I participated with great enthusiasm as Apostolic Nuncio during the years of my mission in Washington, D.C. (2011-2016).
I therefore join all the participants in this extraordinary celebration and all American Catholics, who see in President Donald Trump the greatest defender of the supreme values of Christian civilization: of life, from conception to natural death; of the natural family composed of one man and one woman and children; and of love for the homeland: One Nation under God! And, most importantly, he stands for defending the right to freely practice our Faith, thus allowing us more fully to honor God.
The presidential elections in November represent an epochal challenge, a biblical challenge, the outcome of which will be decisive not only for the United States of America but for the whole world.
It is necessary that all of you Catholics of America are well aware of the role that Providence has deigned to entrust to your President, and that you are aware of the extraordinary battle that He is preparing to fight against the demonic forces of the deep state and against the New World Order. I am at your side with fervent prayer, together with millions of Catholics and with all people of good will throughout the world.
Our trust rests in God, the Almighty, whose right hand always works wonders.

Is Archbishop Viganò in the US somewhere? He sure seems interested and informed about US events.
No problem.
Yes, after the Trump win, they will go more berserk than ever. And after the election, the president and his allies can really go to work on draining the filthy swamp.
You’re right. Everyone will need to be on guard. Situational awareness and if at all possible not being caught alone will be critical.
The Flock is walking away from the parishes you describe.
If you can find a church local to you in either one of these organizations, pay it a visit; I think you'll be surprised:
He served as the Apostolic Nuncio to the United States from 19 October 2011 to 12 April 2016; presumably, he could find his way around the country.
Game On!
LOL! I wonder where, in TX, this is.
Good for the Trump supporters!
Oh WOW!
He states...”I therefore join all the participants in this extraordinary celebration and all American Catholics, who see in President Donald Trump ‘the greatest defender’ of the supreme values of Christian civilization: of life, from conception to natural death; of the natural family composed of one man and one woman and children; ‘and of love for the homeland’: One Nation under God!.. And, most importantly, he stands for defending the right to freely practice our Faith, thus allowing us more fully to honor God.”
LOL
The closest one of these is 130 miles from us.
I love it!
Very creative.
LOL! That’s good.
Thanks.
The Demorats have revealed enough of their dirty work, and God and men have together so exposed them that people are turning away from the left.....The Democratic Party is no longer a viable alternative for those who want to think for themselves, or those who love this nation and its culture. Rather its become ‘a love affair with insanity’, with its cultural Marxism and left-wing identity politics....and voters are recognizing this.
Everybody is seeing that you cannot negotiate or work with politicians who wake up in the morning thinking about how they can destroy our President, his administration and the values of this nation and it's people..
These next weeks are going to be tough....we need every man on board we can get who loves this nation God has given us.....but I have to admit I was dumb struck reading what this Archbishop wrote about Trump.
..."I join all American Catholics,..... who see in 'President Donald Trump' the greatest defender of the supreme values of Christian civilization'.... of life, from conception to natural death; of the natural family composed of one man and one woman and children; and of love for the homeland:...

Interesting not Biden nor Kamala names are even mentioned in their signage...
Have you heard about the National Day of Prayer and Repentance that is scheduled for Washington DC this weekend?

Wish I could get to DC, this weekend.
Oh The Prayer march is just a few days before the debate....IF there is one.
Thus the Lord was moved by prayer for the land.
2 Samuel 24:25
Me, too, but health issues put that out of the question.
However, I plan on spending most of the weekend watching the live streaming of it.
I’m going to watch at home and join that way...I suspect someone will carry it on Youtube live.
Could you elaborate? Are Catholics descending on DC in large numbers for an event of some kind?
That would be a sight to see!
