Catholic Filipino Young Adults (CFYA)

 Join the Catholic Filipino Young Adults (CFYA) on a Public Square Rosary on October 11, 2008 at Bryant Park, NYC.

Currently, the United States is suffering from the sins of abortion, homosexuality, impure fashions and immoral laws. Moreover, secularism attempts to remove God from society. But without God, where will our leaders get the wisdom to solve the great problems we face? We must counter today’s immoral and secularist trends with our public prayers. We must ask God, through the Rosary of His Most Holy Mother to save America.

Public Square Rosary Rallies

is organized by www.americaneedsfatima.org , it takes place each year, on the Saturday closest to October 13, the day of the Fatima miracle of the sun, we hold thousands of Public Square Rosary Rallies. America Needs Fatima’s Rally Captains gather people in a group in highly visible places to pray the Rosary, beg God’s pardon, sing hymns and make public witness for the Fatima message.  For info please contact the Rally Captain: Reynor 848-203-9490 or Reynor@katoliko.org

Our Beloved Holy Father, in his address to the Youth at Dunwoodie asked us:

“And what of today? Who bears witness to the Good News of Jesus on the streets of New York, in the troubled neighborhoods of large cities, in the places where the young gather, seeking someone in whom they can trust? How then can we as believers help others to walk the path of freedom which brings fulfillment and lasting happiness?

What about today? What are you seeking? What is God whispering to you?

It is from within the Church that you too will find the courage and support to walk the way of the Lord. Nourished by personal prayer, prompted in silence, shaped by the Church’s liturgy you will discover the particular vocation God has for you. Embrace it with joy. You are Christ’s disciples today.

Shine his light upon this great city and beyond. Show the world the reason for the hope that resonates within you. Tell others about the truth that sets you free.

Take courage! Let your imaginations soar freely along the limitless expanse of the horizons of Christian discipleship.”

And so with this I invite you to take part of this discipleship. Share in the opportunity to be witnesses of Christ. Email your friends, share to them the Hope that we have in Christ, especially through the Sacraments of the Church. Let us all together learn more about these treasures, THE SACRAMENTS, on June 28 by joining us as we spend an afternoon of recollection with Rev. Aquinas Guilbeau, OP. Thank you and May God bless you always.
