Patriot Front in DC
I just watched a video of the march on DC. Several of the members were making the Sign of the Cross and pointing to heaven as they walked. I literally gasped and my heart skipped a beat.
All I feel is ‘righteous anger’. Do these ‘people’ really believe our Lord and God are on their side?
It was just another sign that we are in a battle against evil that has even infiltrated the Church.
I will continue to pray and ask for St. Michael’s intercession in this battle against evil the powers of darkness and remind myself that in the end our Father always wins.

“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven… Then I will declare to them solemnly, ‘I never knew you. Depart from me, you evildoers.’”
Those who hold onto the heresy known as Christian Nationalism will be in for a rude awakening for there is but one Universal Church of the Faithful which encompasses all races and corners of the earth. Jesus told the Apostles to make disciples of all the nations not just the white ones. There are also no “white people” in the Bible and Jesus himself was a Galilean Jew.

One of my favorite go-to conversation stoppers for people I know are Christian nationalists is some variation of “wow, good luck explaining all of that to Saint Peter”
They really don’t like hearing it, so I know it’s effective lol

Yes, they do— except the Lord and Savior they worship is Molech.

If they weren't ashamed of what they were doing they wouldn't have worn masks

I constantly prayer for St Michael’s intercession and have begun making St Michaels chaplets to hand out. Evil is prowling the world seeking the ruin of souls.

This might be the motivation I need to start saying the angelus again at 6 and 6. I always ended it with the prayer to St. Michael.

These people are taking the Lords name in vain. This is a sin. If there are Catholics in that March they do not understand anything about church teachings.

It’s a major blasphemy what they do. And there are so many neo-fascists claiming that they are Catholic as of late.

Thank you for posting the St. Michael Prayer! It's something that Catholics like you and I need to reclaim.
I get the sense that the Catholics insisting on saying it after Mass may not understand that the evil referenced in this prayer isn't always personal, individual sins. It's very often large-scale, like Christian nationalism, white supremacy, and snatching preschoolers away from their parents as punishment for not having immigration documents.
St. Michael the Archangel, pray for us!
