We ask you, urgently: don’t scroll past this

Dear readers, Catholic Online was de-platformed by Shopify for our pro-life beliefs. They shut down our Catholic Online, Catholic Online School, Prayer Candles, and Catholic Online Learning Resources—essential faith tools serving over 1.4 million students and millions of families worldwide. Our founders, now in their 70's, just gave their entire life savings to protect this mission. But fewer than 2% of readers donate. If everyone gave just $5, the cost of a coffee, we could rebuild stronger and keep Catholic education free for all. Stand with us in faith. Thank you.

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 2ND WILL BE THE LARGEST DAY OF ORGANIZED PRAYER THE WORLD HAS EVER SEEN

People of All Faiths Will Gather In Prayer for the Sanctity of Life

September 1, 2005 - Washington, NJ - As American troops and their allies fight for democracy and freedom around the world, citizens of all faiths will gather to pray for the sanctity of life. It is expected that at least 100 million people will answer this call for prayer on October 2nd, 2005.

The World Apostolate of Fatima / Blue Army has, for over 50 years, rallied people of faith from around the world to pray for solutions to war, abortion, terrorism, genocide, child slavery, assisted suicide, and other situations.

"The solutions will not come solely from us. We must pray for Divine Intervention," says Michael La Corte, Executive Director of the organization. "The power of prayer will lead to the ultimate triumph - peace on earth! It is encouraging to know that our heavenly Father listens and responds to our needs. So, for twenty minutes on one Sunday we are asking everyone to raise their hearts to heaven in humility, and ask for help from above," La Corte continued.

The world is invited to visit www.bluearmy.com and register a pledge to pray on Worldwide Fatima Sanctity of Life Day, which is slated for Sunday, October 2, 2005. This day will be the largest day of organized prayer the world has ever seen. The World Apostolate of Fatima is reaching out to all prayerful people of all religious denominations to help spread the news through their place of worship as well as to family, friends and any organization that would be interested in this most important movement.

To find out more about spreading the message of prayer for Divine Intervention on October 2, call (908-689-1700 x 18) or email soul@bluearmy.com.
