To all the Regnum Christi members in the North American Territory
Dear Regnum Christi members in Christ,
We have all been praying for the Church more earnestly over the past few weeks. Our Holy Father has extended an invitation to pray for the Church during this Marian month of October in a particular way. I would like to invite all Legionaries and Regnum Christi members in the territory to join Pope Francis in praying the rosary daily “to join in communion and in penitence, as the people of God, in asking the Holy Mother of God and Saint Michael the Archangel to protect the Church from the devil, who always seeks to separate us from God and from each other.” With Pope Francis let’s pray daily the prayer to Our Lady known as Sub tuum praesidium (Under thy protection) and the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel. The Holy Father’s message and the texts for these prayers may be found at this link. May Our Lady and St. Michael, whom Regnum Christi invokes as her special protector, guide us and protect us in the battle for the expansion of Christ’s Kingdom.
Yours in Christ and the Movement,
Fr. John Connor, LC
Territorial Director
Regnum Christi and the Legionaries of Christ
