Women of Grace® Event Details
Weekly Rosary Crusade for the Soul of Our Nation!
Greetings!
When you imagine the United States a year from now, what do you see?
Are our citizens free and able to worship or are they kept in isolation? Are our cities peaceful places of law and order or are our streets riddled with violence and looting? Is our economy one that provides its citizens with the opportunity to provide for their families and own property or are business hampered by high taxes and overregulation? Are we a nation united or a nation divided?
None of us can predict the future. But we can be certain that this election will have consequences that will ripple for decades to come. It is probably the most important election of my lifetime. That is why at this critical juncture of American history, I am asking you to join our Women of Grace Warrior's Rosary Crusade for the triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary in the upcoming election and over the evils that besiege our world and threaten our Christian values.
August 15th is the Solemnity of the Assumption of Mary, commemorating the end of her earthly life and assumption into Heaven. We are exactly 80 days out from election day. I think it no coincidence because that gives us two forty-day periods to intensely pray and intercede for our nation. Forty is traditionally considered to be a time of fasting and preparation...think of Noah in the Ark, Moses in the desert, Jesus in the wilderness, and Lent.
Let us use this time of preparation to heed God’s invitation in 2 Chronicles 7:14, "if my people, upon whom my name has been pronounced, humble themselves and pray, and seek my presence and turn from their evil ways, I will hear them from heaven and pardon their sins and revive their land. Now my eyes shall be open and my ears attentive to the prayer of this place.”
I beseech you to enlist in this effort as a knight in His Kingdom Family. Our weaponry will not be of this world. Our strategy and tactics will not be barbarism and horror. Our weaponry will be the Rosary. We will lift it high, and cry out with St. Michael the Archangel, "Who Is Like Unto God?" - and our victory will be certain.
Through these holy beads, historical battles have been won as holy men and women plied these holy beads with hope, faith, and confidence in God. They were certain that God would intervene - and He did, through the intercession of Our Blessed Lady.
People of goodwill everywhere, let us join together.

May God bless you and may the abundant life of Jesus Christ be yours.
In His Service and with gratitude,
Johnnette Benkovic Williams
Founder and President
A Prayer for our National Elections
O God, we acknowledge you today as Lord,
Not only of individuals, but of nations and governments.
We thank you for the privilege
Of being able to organize ourselves politically
And of knowing that political loyalty
Does not have to mean disloyalty to you.
We thank you for your law,
Which our Founding Fathers acknowledged
We thank you for the opportunity that this election year puts before us,
To exercise our solemn duty not only to vote,
But to influence countless others to vote,
And to vote correctly.
Lord, we pray that your people may be awakened.
Let them realize that while politics is not their salvation,
Their response to you requires that they be politically active.
Awaken your people to know that they are not called to be a sect fleeing the world
But rather a community of faith renewing the world.
Awaken them that the same hands lifted up to you in prayer
Are the hands that pull the lever in the voting booth;
That the same eyes that read your Word
Are the eyes that read the names on the ballot,
And that they do not cease to be Christians
When they enter the voting booth.
Awaken your people to a commitment to justice
To the sanctity of marriage and the family,
To the dignity of each individual human life,
And to the truth that human rights begin when human lives begin,
And not one moment later.
Lord, we rejoice today That we are citizens of your kingdom.
May that make us all the more committed
To being faithful citizens on earth.
We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
(Fr. Frank Pavone, Priests for Life)
