We are in the midst of a spiritual battle, friends, and Catholics need to “have their uniform — the scapular — and sword — the rosary for such a battle.” In the Archbishop’s Column for the St. Louis Review this week he stressed prayer, along with education and evangelization. He specifically requested the rosary and the Rosary Crusade Safeguarding Embryonic Human Life. If you have not yet done so, I encourage you to join the Crusade and help us fight this spiritual battle in Missouri and the country. On November 2, at 10 a.m., Archbishop Burke has asked that we join him and the Catholic schools in the Archdiocese in praying this rosary to safeguard embryonic human life and defeat Amendment 2.

“…the victory belongs to our Lord Jesus Christ Who gave His life for all of us, from the moment of our conception. Our Lord Jesus, God the Son, Who became a human embryo at the moment of His Mother’s fiat will hear our prayers, offered through His Mother and ours, on behalf of our tiniest brothers and sisters.”
