Feast of the holy name of Mary
-
Dear Friends in Christ,
Today, we come together to celebrate the Feast of the Most Holy Name of the Blessed Virgin Mary, a day that holds profound significance in our faith. This feast day not only honors the blessed name of Mary, our spiritual mother, but also calls us to remember a pivotal moment in history—the Battle of Vienna in 1683.
In that historic battle, courageous laity and soldiers stood firm in their faith and fought valiantly to defend Christendom against overwhelming odds. Their unwavering devotion and bravery led to a miraculous victory, underscoring the powerful intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Their faith and courage are a testament to the strength and importance of the laity in safeguarding our religious heritage.
Today, as we face our own battles within society, the role of the laity remains as crucial as ever. The Coalition for Canceled Priests stands as a beacon of hope and support for those who have dedicated their lives to serving God and His Church. Our mission aligns with the legacy of those who defended the faith in Vienna: to protect, support, and uplift those who courageously uphold the teachings of our faith.
Just as the laity stepped forward in 1683, we too are called to stand resolute in our faith and support our priests, especially those who face unjust challenges and cancellations. The Coalition for Canceled Priests relies on the strength and dedication of the faithful to continue our vital work. Together, we can defend our faith, support our clergy, and ensure that the teachings of Christ continue to flourish in our communities.
As we commemorate this special feast day, let us draw inspiration from the bravery of those who came before us and renew our commitment to our mission. May the Most Holy Name of the Blessed Virgin Mary be a source of strength and guidance for us all.
In Christ,Craig Holuj
