In anticipation of the Solemnity of St. Joseph, Holy Father and Most Chaste Spouse (March 19th)
We invite Our Lady of America adherents and supporters
to join in a nine-day prayer program beginning on March 11, 2010, and then
continuing each day through March 19th, praying
for His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI and for the United States
Catholic Bishops.
Please consider attending Holy Mass each
day and praying a 20-decade Rosary for the intentions of The
Blessed Virgin Mary, for His Holiness and for the American
Catholic Bishops.
Please remember in a special way both
Archbishop Raymond Burke and Bishop David Ricken, as
well as all the other Cardinals and Bishops who have supported
devotion to Our Lady of America. Please try to make a separate Holy
Hour before The Most Blessed Sacrament exposed in The
Monstrance or reserved in The Tabernacle on the Feast of
Saint Joseph, March 19th, as well. Some may be called to make this Adoration a weekly occurance, praying for the fufillment of Our Lady of America's requests. As a meditation,
you may wish to consider the messages from Saint Joseph
to Sister Mary Ephrem (Mildred Neuzil) as approved by
Monsignor Paul Francis Leibold, and set forth here:
From the messages of Our Lady of America.
On the evening of the next day, March 19, 1958, St. Joseph again appeared to me
as he had promised and addressed me in these
words:
"My child, I desire a day to be set aside to honor my fatherhood.
"The privilege of being chosen by God to be the Virgin-Father of His
Son was mine alone, and no honor, excluding that bestowed
upon my Holy Spouse, was ever, or will ever, be as sublime or as high as this.
"The Holy Trinity desires thus to honor me that in my unique fatherhood all fatherhood might be blessed.
"Dear child, I was king in the little home of Nazareth, for I sheltered within it the Prince of Peace and the Queen of Heaven. To
me they looked for protection and sustenance, and I did not fail them.
"I received from them the deepest love and reverence, for in me they saw Him Whose place I took over them.
"So the head of the family must be loved, obeyed, and respected, and in return be a true father and protector to those under his
care.
"In honoring in a special way my fatherhood, you also honor Jesus and Mary. The Divine Trinity has placed into our keeping the
peace of the world.
"The imitation of the Holy Family, my child, of the virtues we practiced in our little home at Nazareth is the way for all souls to
that peace which comes from God alone and which none other can give" "
