Make America Holy Again Campaign Please join us and the Make America

Holy Again Campaign in praying the

pre-election novena each day from

October 29 through November 6.

The novena prayer comes from the

1959 dedication of the Basilica of

the National Shrine of the Immacu-

late Conception in Washington, D.C.

It was approved that year by Cardinal

Patrick O'Boyle, then-archbishop of

Washington.

Novena Prayer to be prayed each

day from October 29 - November 6:

Most Holy Trinity: Our Father in Heaven, who chose Mary as the fairest of your

daughters; Holy Spirit, who chose Mary as your Spouse; God the Son, who chose

Mary as your Mother, in union with Mary we adore your majesty and acknowledge

your supreme, eternal dominion and authority.

Most Holy Trinity, we put the United States of America into the hands of Mary Im-

maculate in order that she may present the country to you. Through her we wish to

thank you for the great resources of this land and for the freedom which has been

its heritage.

Through the intercession of Mary, have mercy on the Catholic Church in America.

Grant us peace. Have mercy on our President and on all the officers of our govern-

ment. Grant us a fruitful economy, born of justice and charity. Have mercy on capi-

tal and industry and labor. Protect the family life of the nation. Guard the precious

gift of many religious vocations. Through the intercession of our Mother, have

mercy on the sick, the tempted, sinners - on all who are in need.

Mary, Immaculate Virgin, our Mother, Patroness of our land, we praise you and

honor you and give ourselves to you. Protect us from every harm. Pray for us, that

acting always according to your will and the will of your divine Son, we may live and

die pleasing to God. Amen.

Saint Louis Haiti Ministry Update Thanks to everyone who has given to the Saint Louis Haiti Ministry this year. This

year so far we have collected over $22,000 in donations. We really appreciate
