Supporters Hold Traditional Marriage Crusade Rallies More than 1,500 Saint Joseph Rosary Rallies were held across the country as part of the Traditional Marriage Crusade. A tremendous victory for God’s law!

A just-posted report tells us of TFP/ANF friends and supporters in Florida who held rosary rallies at Tropical Park in metropolitan Miami, and in Miami Springs.

Tropical Park rally participants said they were very blessed to be part of proclaiming the true meaning of marriage, as the TFP/ANF banner resolutely proclaimed: Marriage = One Man + One Woman! The rally was supported with many honks from motorists who were passing along the busy avenue.

ANF supporters hold these rallies annually to make

reparations for the sins and offenses committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and to fervently pray for a restoration of traditional marriage in America.

Help us pray in reparation to Our Lady by hosting your own legal and peaceful rosary rally in support of traditional marriage, and to peacefully protest the liberal agenda that seeks to redefine the holy unity of one man and one woman. Call 844-830-3570 or email Protest@TFP.org.

Preserving the Sanctity of Marriage

More than 35 TFP/ANF friends and supporters gathered in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, for a rosary rally of reparation in honor of the Traditional Marriage Crusade.

One of the rally supporters said, “Our Lady stopped the rain for our rosary! One man got out of his truck to go to a nearby business, saw us praying and got back in his truck to grab his rosary and join us in prayer!

We also used a microphone so people frequenting the

businesses heard us praying. God is good!”

As Catholics, we know without any doubt that marriage can only occur between one man and one woman, period. We know that despite what men or men’s laws state to the contrary, marriage always has been and always will be between one man and one woman. God bless these faithful prayer warriors for taking a public stand for God’s marriage!

Take a stand today to defend traditional marriage in your community by hosting your own peaceful and legal rosary rally of reparation. We will help you organize the rally and provide you with a free rosary rally manual and banner, so all you have to do is show up and pray! Jose Ferraz is ready to help you at a moment’s notice to ensure your rosary rally has the right impact. Just call him, toll-free, at 844-830-3570 or email him at Protest@TFP.org.

Saying ‘No’ to Satanic After-School Club

BL2206

TFP/ANF friends and supporters in Lebanon, Ohio, gathered to hold a rosary rally of reparation against The Satanic Temple’s “After-School Satan Club”, which holds monthly after-school activities for young children inside Donovan Elementary School.

Rally captains Anthony and Darlene said that although rain clouds started to form as the participants were praying, Our Lady blessed them and the rain held off until they finished their prayers.

Darlene said the rally members, including several who drove a great distance from Kentucky to participate, peacefully and legally protested across the street from the school, and were visible to parents and children as they drove away. She affirmed, “Anthony and I could not have done this without the help of everyone who joined us—including Anthony, himself, who traveled two-and-a-half hours from his home to Lebanon and back.”

May Our Lady reward rally captains Anthony and Darlene and their faithful prayer warriors for protesting the exposure of children and youth to Satanism.

Rallying Against Satanic Black Mass When Rally Captain Christopher found out that an organization called the Satanic Bay Area was holding a black mass in Oakland, California, he sprang into action to organize a rosary rally of reparation.

Although the peaceful and legal rally was planned on short notice, Christopher was pleased that there were nine people there to pray that Satan not be honored by any ceremony, private or public.

“I felt a calling from Our Lady to plan this rally because a black mass involves the desecration of the Eucharist and that is a grave sacrilege against Our Lord Jesus Christ,” he said. “Considering the short notice and time to get prepared, the rally turned out better than I could have imagined! Thanks to Our Lady and St. Joseph and special thanks to the ANF staff for helping us to get it rolling.”

We can help you plan your own rosary rally, too! Just call Jose Ferraz, toll-free, at 844-830-3570 or email him directly at Protest@TFP.org.

Ac t o f Re p ar a t i on Most sweet Jesus, whose overflowing charity for men is requited by so much forgetfulness, negligence and contempt, behold us prostrate before Thee, eager to repair by a special act of homage the cruel indifference and injuries to which Thy loving Heart is everywhere subject.

Mindful, alas! that we ourselves have had a share in such great indignities, which we now deplore from the depths of our hearts, we humbly ask Thy pardon and declare our readiness to atone by voluntary expiation, not only for our own personal offenses, but also for the sins of those, who, straying far from the path of salvation, refuse in their obstinate infidelity to follow Thee, their Shepherd and Leader, or, renouncing the promises of their baptism, have cast off the sweet yoke of Thy law.

We are now resolved to expiate each and every deplorable outrage committed against Thee; we are now determined to make amends for the manifold offenses against Christian modesty in unbecoming dress and behavior, for all the foul seductions laid to ensnare the feet of the innocent, for the frequent violations of Sundays and holydays, and the shocking blaphemies uttered against Thee and Thy Saints.

We wish also to make amends for the insults to which Thy Vicar on earth and Thy priests are subjected, for the profanation, by conscious neglect or terrible acts of sacrilege, of the very crimes of nations who resist the rights and teaching authority of the Church which Thou hast founded.

Would that we were able to wash away such abominations with our blood. We now offer, in reparation for these violations of Thy divine honor, the satisfaction Thou once made to Thy Eternal Father on the cross and which Thou continuest to renew daily on our altars; we offer it in union with the acts of atonement of Thy Virgin Mother and all the Saints and of the pious faithful on earth; and we sincerely promise to make recompense, as far as we can with the help of Thy grace, for all neglect of Thy great love and for the sins we and others have committed in the past. Henceforth, we will live a life of unswerving faith, of purity of conduct, of perfect observance of the precepts of the Gospel and especially that of charity. We promise to the best of our power to prevent others from offending Thee and to bring as many as possible to follow Thee.

O loving Jesus, through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mother, our model in reparation, deign to receive the voluntary offering we make of this act of expiation; and by the crowning gift of perseverance keep us faithful unto death in our duty and the allegiance we owe to Thee, so that we may all one day come to that happy home, where with the Father and the Holy Spirit, Thou livest and reignest, God, forever and ever.

Amen

Throughout June, we are encouraging TFP-ANF friends and supporters to join our Sacred Heart Rosary Rally Crusade and lead a Rosary Rally of Reparation to denounce LGBTQ Pride Month.

This is an important time for us to defend Our Lord!

It’s a time to gather your family and friends and pray a rosary in public to show your devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

June is the month of the Sacred Heart, but sadly, this beautiful devotion to Jesus is being forgotten and replaced by LGBTQ Pride Month, even within many Catholic churches!

We need your help to oppose an LGBTQ Pride event happening in your community. It could be held in a park or even at a Catholic church. Now is the time for us to remember that “evil will prevail if the good do nothing.”

I know you love the Sacred Heart of Jesus and because of your devotion to her Most Holy Rosary, you hold Our Lady in a very special place in your heart.

So, please stand with us, stand with God, and tell us immediately if you see a Catholic church advertising a PRIDE “Mass” celebrating homosexual sin.

As Catholics, we must not be complacent and permit this public sin to be celebrated with public pride – especially within the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. With your peaceful and legal rosary rally, you voice the truth that homosexuality is sin. Your prayers and those of your rally participants, will offer tremendous reparation, and give great honor and glory, to the Sacred Heart of Jesus! And I am confident He will reward you in extraordinary ways.

When you join as a rally captain in our Sacred Heart Rosary Rally Crusade, we will send you everything you need to make sure you have a legal, peaceful and successful event. You will receive a rally banner, Rally Captain Manual, Sacred Heart badge and prayer of reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

Please help us regain the month of June as a time to celebrate the Sacred Heart of Jesus! Please call, toll free, 844-830-3570, or email Protest@TFP.org.

May God bless you for all that you do in His name.

Protecting God’s Children Deacon Leland served as the rally captain for a rosary rally against Stanley Middle School in Lafayette, California. The school was telling children they can get an abortion without parental consent.

TFP/ANF friends and supporters gathered at a central, visible location near the school to pray in reparation, and to oppose educating children about gender ideology, disregard for parental authority, and abortion.

Although his rally was small, Deacon Leland knew that every prayer counts and was pleased he decided to host his rally. “We asked the Blessed Mother, St Joseph, and Padre Pío for their intercession, then prayed the Rosary,” he said. “While people streamed past us, one woman stopped and asked if she could take a photo of us and we answered ‘yes.’ Our Lord can create a great deal from nothing, so I am sure that fruit will come from this!”

Answer God’s call and host your own peaceful and prayerful rally. Offer your rosary rally to beseech God to protect His innocent ones before it’s too late! Call Jose at 844-830-3570, or email him at Protest@TFP. org.

Sincerely, In Jesus and Mary,

Robert E. Ritchie Executive Director
