What do we know about St. Valentine?...
What has Our Lady of Emmitsburg said on this saint's feast day?
““I see the sorrow in your hearts. I most graciously take your petitions and will present them to God. How blessed are you who open your heart to live His Word in His Love, through His Love, and by all the gifts of His Love…” (OLOE Private 02-14-09)

President’s Day - February 15, 2010
Archbishop John Carroll of Baltimore, MD, the first bishop of the United States of America, wrote this Prayer for Government in 1791. Its words are just as appropriate today as they were then:
““….We pray Thee, O God of might, wisdom and justice, through Whom authority is rightly administered, laws are enacted and judgment decreed, assist with Thy Holy Spirit of counsel and fortitude the President of these United States, that his administration may be conducted in righteousness, and be eminently useful to Thy people over whom he presides; by encouraging due respect for virtue and religion, by a faithful execution of the laws in justice and mercy; and by restraining vice and immorality….”

Ash Wednesday - February 17, 2010
Due to the extremely positive response last year to the compilation on “Repentance,” The Foundation is now presenting it again as we begin this Lenten Season:
God the Father, Our Lord Jesus Christ,
and Our Lady of Emmitsburg speak on:
REPENTANCE...
What has Our Lady of Emmitsburg previously said on Ash Wednesday?
“This is a redemptive time, a time when each of you should be doing good to your neighbor, not speaking harshly, not slandering, not gossiping, and not allowing hatred to fill your hearts. It is a time of hospitality instead of hostility, one in which you are gracious in giving and gracious in receiving….” (OLOE Private 02-09-05)

The Secrets, Chastisement, and Triumph
of the Two Hearts of Jesus and Mary
and What Heaven is Calling us to Do
by Dr. Kelly Bowring
Do not delay reading this recently released (2009) book: "The Secrets, Chastisement, and Triumph of the Two Hearts of Jesus and Mary", by theologian and Southern Catholic professor, Dr. Kelly Bowring. It very thoroughly compiles most of what has been revealed in both Sacred Scripture and Tradition, the writings of the saints, and some current and reliable private revelation. Most importantly, this new book carries the Imprimatur of His Eminence Ricardo J. Vidal, Archbishop of Cebu, Philippines.
Dr. Bowring Book Summary and Ordering Information...
How is it that Cardinal Vidal, a Prince of the Roman Catholic Church, can grant the Church’s Imprimatur to Dr. Bowring’s book, and the Cardinals and Bishops in the United States and many parts of the world shy away from any of Our Lord’s and Our Lady’s countless words being heard on every continent of help, assistance, and warning about "this end of an era" and times ahead, dismissing for whatever reason the messages as if they were from Satan himself as well as shunning the messengers as if they were the lepers of the Old Testament times?

Prayer to Save America
During these critical times in U.S. history as well as in salvation history, the Foundation will be including this prayer on all enewsletters.
O merciful God, we cry to Thee for pardon and for mercy.
We are an unbelieving and perverse generation.
We are disobedient, disloyal and ungrateful to Thee.
We have excluded Thee from our homes, our schools, our places of business.
We are no longer worthy to be called Thy children.
Merciful Father, spare America!
Forgive us!
Save us from the scourge we deserve.
Teach us Thy law, and move our wills to serve Thee today and everyday.
Merciful God, please spare America!
O Immaculate Heart of Mary,
Pray for us!

General: For all scholars and intellectuals, that by means of sincere search for the truth they may arrive at an understanding of the one true God.

DAILY OFFERING PRAYER - O Jesus, through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary, I offer You my prayers, works, joys, and sufferings of this day in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world. I offer them for all the intentions of Your Sacred Heart: the salvation of souls, reparation for sin, and the reunion of all Christians. I offer them for the intentions of our bishops and of all Apostles of Prayer, and in particular for those recommended by our Holy Father this month.
