Voices Lifted in Prayer from 1,121 Public Rosary Rallies to Protect Our Children’s Innocence

Last week, parents, grandparents, students, and supporters held rosary rallies throughout all of America asking God to protect our children from porn and LGBTQ books in libraries and schools.

The 1,121 public rosary rallies, which were organized through America Needs Fatima, asked Our Blessed Mother for help to heal America through the removal of destructive, sexualized books in classrooms and libraries. These materials have immoral subjects, themes and images that affect young and highly impressionable minds.

These public rosary rallies, which were held on April 9 and 12, were a grassroots effort to stand bravely and peacefully against the encroaching perversion and indoctrination targeting America’s schoolchildren. Sadly, classrooms and libraries continue to promote books such as Born Ready: The True Story of a Boy Named Penelope, Jacob's Room to Choose, My Rainbow, Pride Puppy and Uncle Bobby's Wedding. Teachers are also using these books, along with seemingly innocent games and coloring books, as materials meant to promote literacy for the youngest of children.

For many years, powerful groups such as The American Federation of Teachers (AFT) and the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) have promoted integrating these books in the classroom – and keeping parents in the dark. They also use their vast resources to recruit LGBTQ educators to infiltrate classrooms with their ideology. Clearly, there is an agenda at work here.

The U.S. Supreme Court presently is considering the case of Mahmoud v. Taylor, in which parents from Montgomery County, Md., contend that requiring their children to participate in instruction involving these immoral materials violates their religious beliefs and their First Amendment right to freely exercise their religion. Hopefully, the parents will be victorious, although the case does not truly address the need to remove these books entirely from classrooms and libraries.

The public rosary rallies worked to highlight the need to protect children’s innocence by removing books with sexualized content of any nature. Rally captains across America reported on their participation in this important effort.

Jackie M., held a rally on a busy road in front of St. Zachary’s Haven, a non-profit sober living farm in Morrow, Ohio, founded by her sister (after her son died from a fentanyl overdose in 2020). She included two seminarians who led the prayers in front of the statue of Blessed Mary.

“We had about 8 people gathered to pray the rosary in front of Hamilton Public Library located next to the Hamilton Police Headquarters,” Agnieszka R., from Hamilton, N.J., reported. Before choosing her rally location, Agnieska said she confirmed that there was pornographic material at this library.

“The reception from cars driving by was positive and welcoming, although one driver displayed a satanic gesture,” Chris M. from Lebanon, Conn., said. “The participants’ spirits remained strong, all in all, and the rally was a success. Our Lord and Our Lady would no doubt be pleased with this amount of devotion shown to them.”

“The experience was very beautiful and blessed because we knew that in some way we could help improve the future for children and youth by asking Our Lady of Fatima for her intercession and help to prevent the spread of satanic books and gender ideology,” Ivone G. from Indianapolis, Ind., said. “We will experience the consequences for such a great sin. May God have mercy on us and hear the prayers of the Blessed Virgin Mary.”

Linda D. from Dale, Texas, simply stated what so many of our rally captains tell us: “We were honored to hold rosary rallies for our community.”

“Every American child is entitled to enjoy an innocent childhood, free from sexualized books, games, and puzzles in classrooms and libraries,” said Robert E. Ritchie, director of America Needs Fatima. “Once innocence is lost, it cannot be regained, and can cause lifelong confusion. We all owe it to the children to protect them from this blatant evil.”

While the rosary rallies bring awareness to this important issue, they also touch lives in countless ways. Hundreds of thousands of souls pass by the rallies, raising the hope that the seeds of future conversions are planted in their minds and hearts. That is the key to returning America back to God.

The next public rosary rally organized by America Needs Fatima will be held on May 10 to honor the month of Our Lady. You can sign up today to become a rally captain in your community by clicking here.
