Some Reasons to Pray a Public Square Rosary

1. The Miracle of the Sun through Our Lady of Fatima on October 13, 1917 was witnessed by a public of 70,000 people that included atheists, communists, and anti-Catholics, some of whom converted.
Perhaps, our Rally may inspire someone to convert or come back to our Faith;

2. Public sins, public reparation.

3. Public prayer gets results:

4. Recent studies show that over time peaceful prayers in front of/near abortion mills have saved lives and that some of these businesses are closing down for good.

5. Historically, Public Rosary has proved to be an effective weapon, in more sense than one:
In 1571, Pope Pius V propagated the feast of Our Lady of Rosary to thank God for the naval victory at the Battle of Lepanto;
In the 1640s, Manila in the Philippines, was spared from naval invasion by a massively superior fleet. More recently,in the late 1980s, the Pilipino People Power thwarted dictatorial military forces with rosary beads and strands of flowers. Petal vs Metal.
At the end of World War II, after massive public Rosary processions, the Communist Soviet troops left Vienna and the rest of Austria alone.
Brazil was saved from the Communist takeover in 1964. By the Power of God, through the Intercession of Our Lady of the Rosary we can do as much

6. There were 3,445 Rosary Rallies in 2008. We are part of the 3,500 Rosary Rallies palnned across the United States of America on October 10, 2009. Even if there is ONLY YOU and me at the Rally, we can claim on the promise of Our Lord, “Again, I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything for which they are to pray, it shall be granted to them by My Heavenly Father. For wherever two or more are gathered in My Name, I shall Be in their midst.”Matthew 18:19-20.
