Let us pray for our country, our leaders, and all who call America home. May God continue to bless our nation with peace, wisdom, justice, and hope. Happy Fourth of July!
As our nation marks 250 years of independence, we As our nation marks 250 years of independence, we entrust America to the loving care of our Blessed Mother. Join us in praying for our nation today and every day. Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception, Patroness of the United States, pray for us.
