People don’t die for a cracker!

People don’t die for a cracker. They die for a Savior. In 2000 years since Jesus gave us His Church, the known and unknown martyrs who gave their ‘all’ for Him is countless.

Joseph didn’t just accept Providence. He embraced its mystery.

A Rosary Novena for Our Times

“Lord, bring peace to a world lamenting and anguishing for rest. Amen”

This is our Lepanto moment. With the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary on October 7, please join me in praying this beautiful and powerful novena of rosaries given to us by Mr. Wade Chio. Each day’s intention will be prayed at the beginning of the rosary. The novena may begin Sept. 28 through Oct. 6, or begin Sept. 29 and end Oct. 7, the feast day. And please share with others!
