The materials contained here are to help you be true soldiers of Christ — to "put on the armor of God and hold your ground." To do that requires knowing the faith, praying with the heart and mind of the Church, and working unceasingly to bring about the reign of Christ the King. Follow the dictates of the prophet Micah: "Act justly, love tenderly, and walk humbly with your God."

Our Lady, Seat of Wisdom, pray for us. St. Joan of Arc, pray for us.
