Public Square Rosary Crusade will take place on Oct. 13 at noon across U.S.
On Saturday, Oct. 13 at noon, the Public Square Rosary Crusade will be held in 8,000 public squares across the nation, where Catholics will be praying for our nation. This annual event is sponsored by “America Needs Fatima.”
The goal of the crusade is to counter the destructive secular agenda, asking God to guide every aspect of our society. As human efforts have failed to solve America’s key problems, we ask God’s immediate help for our nation’s leadership. He will hear our prayers, especially if we pray the rosary of his Blessed Mother. Without prayer, and specifically the rosary, we will not find solutions to our nation’s many problems. The location is the corner of Sacramento State University, in front of their sign, at the corner of “J”.
Parking will be in the Knights of Columbus Parking Lot (if we have permission–Need Dominic or Frank Phillips to get permission!) at 11:30 am. We will then proceed to the location on foot. We have to be “on time” for the 12:00 noon “start” time…
