Operation Storm Heaven - Catholic Action For Faith and Family

Many of you will already have read about 'Operation Storm Heaven', the beautiful new prayer initiative by Cardinal Raymond Burke.

For those who have not yet seen details of it, the idea is to create a world-wide community of the Catholic faithful, who will pledge to pray a rosary once a month, on the first day of each month, in union with each other, and united with the offering of a Mass celebrated in Rome by Cardinal Burke.

The intentions of this rosary and the monthly Mass are many, and urgent: they are listed in below. It is very easy to join and one can also add one's own intentions to the monthly list.

Here's the link: 


Below are the rosary intentions - the website has lots more details:

  • For Holy Mother Church: that Our Lord guide the Pope, the bishops and all members of the clergy to be holy in all things, faithful shepherds, beacons of Truth, and defenders of Good;
  • May all confusion be dispelled from the hearts and minds of all people and may the Light of Truth shine in them;
  • For our families and the family institution that is being so attacked in our world;
  • For the conversion of all sinners to the True Faith;
  • For the salvation of my soul, the souls of my loved ones, and the souls of all;
  • For the sanctification of each and every Catholic, especially for my personal sanctification. May I live holy every moment of every day of my life. May I be a true follower of Jesus Christ in all things;
  • To make each and every one of us a faithful soldier of Christ in the struggle against the world, the flesh and the devil;
  • To obtain the graces necessary to stop abortion, stop the onslaught of the homosexual revolution, to overturn legalized same-sex marriage, to stop the spread of physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia, and to stop the culture of death in all its forms and establish the Culture of Life in all souls, in all minds and in all hearts;
  • For our beloved Nation and for every nation on earth;
  • For all the personal intentions that have been submitted to'Operation Storm Heaven
