Blessed Martyrs of Compiegne pray for us that we may Praise the Lord forever for He is faithful even when we are unfaithful.

These blessed French Carmelite nuns have marked me...
May they pray for us and grant us the faith, love towards GOD, strenght and bravery to face the persecutions that await us.

Our family . Catholics who didn't know the truth about the French Revolution. We went to Paris to celebrate the centennial of the French Revolution not aware that it was against the Catholic church. I am so sorry that we didn't know the truth.

Brother Michael Cunningham, warned of these days that we are witnessing when I was 13. I was to young to believe I would be alive for what I am seeing in todays world. Thank you Christian Niles for sharing our Catholic history, that it will help us today, and give us strength as we walk into tomorrow.
Father forgive my sins. Lord Jesus forgive my sins. Holy Ghost forgive my sins.
I was listening Brother Michael ✝️
