Lift Up Your Hearts and Join the Restoration of the Church



This episode of the Vortex really gave my heart a lift this morning. Not surprising. Beauty calls to the heart and the sanctuary at Church Militant TV is truly beautiful. If you have a beautiful sanctuary at your local church, praise God and spend some time there glorifying our beautiful Lord who resides in the tabernacle there. If you have an ugly church where it's hard to find Jesus because He's been relegated to a closet, spend some time there consoling our sorrowful Lord who continues to be crucified by so many who should honor Him. And please pray the Litany for our poor Church and for the restoration of the faith in America that is so badly needed.

Pray the Litany for the Church

Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God, That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Let Us Pray.
Jesus, our God, in these dark hours when Thy Mystical Body is undergoing its own Crucifixion,
and when it would almost seem to be abandoned by God the Father, have mercy, we beg of Thee,
on Thy suffering Church. Send down upon us the Divine Consoler, to enlighten our minds and strengthen our wills. Thou, O Second Person of the Most Holy Trinity, Who canst neither deceive nor be deceived, have promised to be with Thy Church until the end of time. Give us a mighty Faith that we may not falter; help us to do Thy Holy Will always, especially during these hours
of grief and uncertainty. May Thy Most Sacred Heart and the Immaculate and Sorrowful Heart
of Thy Holy Mother be our sure refuge in time and in eternity.       Amen
