Defending the Sacred Heart Against Pride Mass More than 1,600 dedicated and enthusiastic Champions of Mary across the country led peaceful protests of reparation against Pride Masses during the month of June. On short notice, Rally Captain Elena and many other TFP/ANF friends and supporters gathered outside of the church to pray the rosary in reparation for this sacrilege. Although they faced some opposition, including from the priest, Elena said she was grateful to host this rally and planned to have more at other churches celebrating Pride Masses.

Elena said, “I believe the Holy Spirit truly worked through me and all those who were present at this rally, and I am grateful to God for giving each of us the courage, strength and peace we needed. Thank you to TFP and America Needs Fatima for your help, encouragement and prayers for all of us.” It’s easy for you to become a rally captain like Elena, too! We will provide you with a free rosary rally manual and banner. Contact National Rally Coordinator Jose Ferraz today toll-free at (844) 830-3570, or email him at Protest@TFP.org.

Rosary Rallies Demonstrate the Power of Prayer Rally captain Leslie believes that hosting public rosary rallies is the ultimate way to honor Our Lady and show what the power of prayer can do for our world. Leslie said, “When we pray a public rosary and offer up our sacrifices, we are living the message of Fatima, helping to usher in the triumph of her Immaculate Heart. We may not see the differences a public rosary makes right away but, in time, we will see the fruits of our efforts.” Captains Leslie and Minerva have been hosting monthly rallies in front of the Waukegan, Illinois, Planned Parenthood facility. Leslie encourages others to host rallies, too: “Become a rosary rally captain with confidence, asking Our Lady to help you, because our world desperately needs public recitation of the rosary. When we pray the rosary together in public, our prayers are united which can

more easily overthrow the devil and his devious plans.” Contact National Protest Rally Coordinator, Jose Ferraz toll-free at (844) 830-3570, or email him at Protest@TFP.org. He will help you plan your peaceful and legal rally to defend life.

Taking a Stand for Traditional Marriage

BL2209

After receiving more than 450 honks of support from people driving by, Rally Captain Richard knew God was with him and his fellow TFP/ANF friends and supporters. The group had gathered in their community in Frankfort, Kentucky, to pray for the restoration of marriage defined by God: the sacred union between one man and one woman.

Richard and his rally participants prayed 15 decades of the rosary and sang hymns for two hours. Although he was shot at with colored powder shooters, Richard would not let detractors who were yelling, displaying rainbow flags and making obscene gestures stop him from defending traditional marriage. Richard said, “By praying and presenting the truth in public, we give honor to God and encourage others to have hope. The response of the public was by far in our favor. Please join the thousands who honor Our Lady with a public rosary rally.” You can host a peaceful, legal rosary rally too. Contact National Protest Rally Coordinator, Jose Ferraz tollfree at (844) 830-3570, or email him at Protest@TFP. org and he will help you organize your own peaceful and legal rosary rally to defend traditional marriage! 2


Protecting Children in Illinois Captains Rex and Leslie organized a rosary rally after learning the City of Waukegan’s (Illinois) Pride Festival was planning children’s activities. The publicly-funded event featured a Kiddie Corner with Drag Queen Story Time, drag kids dress up and a drag show for children. TFP/ANF friends and supporters gathered to make reparation to Our Lady for the deviant LGBTQ lifestyle especially targeting children. Leslie said that although they faced opposition from many individuals, it was a blessing and privilege to honor the Blessed Mother with a rosary rally. “After the rosary is prayed, I always feel like I have accomplished something very good. It makes me feel strong. Even those who do not agree with us benefit by seeing Our Lady standing with us. It is a reminder to them of what their life could be if they would repent of their sin.” Contact Jose Ferraz toll-free at (844) 830-3570, or email him at Protest@TFP.org and he will help you plan your own rally.

Pride Picnic Prompts Peaceful Protest and Change of Heart Many TFP/ANF supporters gathered for a prayer vigil in reparation against a “pride picnic” that was sponsored by the city of Madeira, Ohio. Rally Captain Pat said the group braved the steamy sidewalks and windy conditions to pray for an hour. Although the response to their rally was overwhelmingly positive, Pat said the negatives were especially visceral this year. But it didn’t stop Pat from trying to get through to a protester who had appeared at the earlier rallies. Pat said, “I had a chance to talk with her last year after the prayer vigil had ended. She was a fallenaway Catholic, “married” to another woman, and they had two adopted children. Our conversation 3 last year obviously did not change her lifestyle,

but as we prayed and recited the Glorious Mysteries of the Rosary, I had an inner sense that these prayers were somehow stirring her heart. Perhaps next year, God willing, I can reach her.”


Praying for Life in Wyoming Approximately 150 TFP/ANF friends and supporters flocked to participate in a rosary rally in Casper, Wyoming, to pray in opposition to an abortion clinic opening in that city. This was Rally Captain Carol’s second time leading a rosary rally. Father Ray, the priest from Saint Anthony’s Catholic Church, led the rosary for the group. Carol said the rally was a big success. Another victory for God and the unborn! Carol answered Our Lady’s call to honor life and make reparation for sins. And you can, too. It’s easy to

From the desk of Robert E. Ritchie

God has triumphed! On June 24, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and ruled that there is no constitutional right to have an abortion. It was a day of victory that will forever be remembered throughout history! For 49 years, we’ve been on this crusade as we gathered with our red banners and joined together with hundreds of thousands of people in the March for Life in Washington, D.C. However, we are not done yet! One battle has been won, but the war against the devil’s servants continues. Let us use this victory as an example to fight the enemies of God, peacefully and legally, with our Public Square Rosary Rallies. Let us continue to act against other sacrileges: blasphemy, sex education in schools, Drag Queen Story Hour, and Satanism - all which destroy the innocence of our children and consequently, Christian Civilization. We learn a very important lesson from this victory to be used to prepare for the triumph that Our Lady promised in Fatima.
