“The fact of the matter is we need a conversion of our culture, but more specifically our elected officials or leadership. This 54 day Novena and the Rosary Rally are all part of the effort we need to end preborn child killing and attacks on marriage and the family. We’re not trying to invent a new way in approaching God but listening and doing it the way he wants us to come to him. He wants us to come to him through our Blessed Mother, through this Rosary he’s given us, in all docility and piety and to do it his way.”
Fr. Richard Heilman, President of the Holy League

I call upon you to join the “Novena for Our Nation.” Let us unite and pray the very powerful 54 Day Rosary Novena beginning on August 15, the Feast of the Assumption until October 7, the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary, when there will be a National Rosary Rally in Union Square in front of the United States Capitol in Washington DC.
October 7 is the feast of Our Lady of the Rosary. It marks the anniversary of the Battle of Lepanto off the coast of Greece on October 7, 1571. After a Rosary Campaign called for by Pope Pius V, the united Christian fleet defeated the militant Muslim naval armada. This victory prevented their invasion of Europe and the possible defeat of Christendom and Western civilization.
The Novena for Our Nation is also a Basic Training in Holiness. Each day, along with praying your rosary, you will be provided with a 1-2 minute reflection on holiness. The first 27 days, you will read from passages in scripture, quotes from saints and the catechism. During the second 27 days, you will read excerpts from the book, Church Militant Field Manual: Special Forces Training for the Life in Christ.
You may find the daily reflections as follows:
1) If you would like a hard copy to carry with you, it is available in book form that is entitled, 54 Day Basic Training in Holiness. The 54 Day Rosary Novena prayers are included in this book. Order your book HERE.
2) You can sign up to receive the daily reflection in your email. Sign up here: https://www.novenaforournation.com/
3) You can join the Novena for Our Nation Facebook group HERE, to receive the reflections each day.
The National Rosary Rally will feature many Catholic speakers from around the nation.
If you are unable to attend, please consider planning your own Rosary Rally in your area. Some suggestions for locations are a government facility or Planned Parenthood or your parish church or wherever you think would be best.
