Faithful Disciple

 This global prayer and fasting crusade is sponsored by numerous Catholic organizations to make this
summer a powerful 40 days to convert America and to transform the world. People from across the globe are needed to pray and fast for the conversion of nations imploring God’s Mercy on our world. This is the 14th crusade of 40 Days since it began in Lent 2003 and is in response to escalating global threats:

• Nuclear armed nations

• Natural and manmade disasters like the Gulf of Mexico catastrophe

• The smoldering powder keg in the Middle East

• The killing of the innocent (abortion) and the marginalizing of the elderly

and the disabled

“The great St. John Marie Vianney said „Don‟t lift your voice to the newspaper, lift your

voice to the tabernacle— for the One who can do something about it lives there.‟ So we go

before the Lord of Lords and King of Kings…When enough of us do that, the Church

will be totally renewed.”

The 40 Days of Prayer and Fasting website, http://www.40daysofprayerandfasting.org/, offers online resources to individuals, parishes and organizations to facilitate these 40 Days in unity with participants worldwide. It is updated daily so that you can find information on prayer, fasting, scripture, books, and other media.
We need your help to spread this prayer crusade as quickly as possible. The Fast begins on July 1st, Feast of the Most Precious Blood, and continues through August 9th, Feast of St. Theresa Benedicta of the Cross (Edith Stein). Please spread the word through your email contacts, internet sites, prayer groups, and parishes. Enlist the aid of your pastor and parish ministries to promote these 40 Days.
