As members of the Catholic Church on earth, we are all members of the “Church Militant” as we progress towards the “Church Triumphant” in Heaven.
While we are struggling here on earth, St. Paul tells us in his letter to the Ephesians that we have an obligation to “… be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might…” by putting “… on the whole armor of God…” and have fortitude in the face of evil. Working together for the Lord is our task as His disciples!
If you have ever participated in the 54-Day Novena for Our Nation, you will be familiar with U.S. Grace Force and Fr. Richard Heilman. Their current effort is intended to unite us in Eucharistic Adoration.
To the details:
WHAT: “Heal Our Land Holy Hours” in which America will “… gather and adore Jesus Christ, inviting Him to make Himself fully present in our land, and by His Presence, to free it from the powers of darkness.”
WHEN: Every Thursday, starting on May 13th and ending on October 7th.
These dates may sound familiar… May 13th is the feast day of Our Lady of Fatima and, this year, also coincided with Ascension Thursday. October 7th is the feast day of Our Lady of the Rosary and the 450th anniversary of the Battle of Lepanto in which the Christians were victorious against enemy invaders (psst: learn more about how Our Lady helped the Christian forces by listeining to the bonus track on the Holy Heroes Joyful Mysteries of the Rosary audio CD and in the pages of the Triumph of Jesus coloring book).
WHY: Fr. Heilman believes that he is “…responding to an invitation from God…” He further explains how he is answering this call,
“I am convinced that a movement of restoring Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament is the spiritual therapeutic for cleansing our country of demonic influence and opening the floodgates of grace that will heal our land, bringing our country back to the spiritual health of being One Nation Under God once again.”

Make sure to check out our “How to Make a Holy Hour” pamphlets. For young children, our Inside the Sacraments: The Holy Eucharist is a helpful teaching tool about the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist and Adoration.
May God bless you and your family and may God bless America!
Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception, Patroness of America,
pray for us!

In his “Letter to Artists,” Pope St. John Paul II wrote,”The opening page of the Bible presents God as a kind of exemplar of everyone who produces a work: the human craftsman mirrors the image of God as Creator.” This is what we strive to achieve in every every project to radiate the joy of the Faith to children and their families.
