Saving America Through the Rosary

250,817 Rallies and Growing

Mary Crushed Satan at Carmel High School When she heard about the after school “Satanic Club” at the high school in Carmel, Indiana, Rally Captain Theresa volunteered to lead a rosary of protest. When rally day came, Theresa was overjoyed at the surprise arrival of Mr. Rex Teodosio and Evan Olwell, devout Catholics and TFP members, who brought a bus and fellow protesters from Milwaukee. Over 75 protesters, including many locals, encouraged Theresa. She reported that the outpouring of faith also greatly inspired her husband, Pablo. Enduring freezing temperatures and windy conditions, the attendees shared extra clothing with those not prepared for the bad weather. All in all, they persevered, prayed six rosaries and sang Marian hymns. Theresa added that many passersby were curious about her custom banner from ANF, who stopped to discuss the issue. Among attendees was Larry, who had already volunteered to lead a rosary of protest for the following week, and Leo, who traveled with his wife across several states to attend. The after school Satanic club renamed itself “The Tolerance Club”. That won’t stop ANF rally captains like Theresa and Larry, who will continue to fight the demonic influence in Carmel no matter what name it is given! If you find out there is a school in your community with a “Satanic Club,” call 844-830-3570 or email Protest@TFP.org.

A Family Blessing in Miami In September, parishioners of the Church of St. Martha in Miami were saddened to hear a vandal had beheaded a statue of Our Lord Jesus Christ on parish property. Only weeks before, a hand had been chopped from another statue in front of the church. Desecration demands reparation, so America Needs Fatima contacted Rally Captain Herman, who enthusiastically agreed to lead a public rosary. On rally day, Herman and his family prayed in English, Spanish and even Latin, while rally attendees stood with them in defense of Our Lord and His Church. “It was a blessing for our family to say the least! My wife Bertha and granddaughter Raquel were both very touched. We thank our Lord and Blessed Mother for seeing the event through!” America Needs Fatima P.O. Box 341, Hanover, PA 17331 Protest@TFP.org

The Real Queen and the A Good Spot to Pray Counterfeit By Chris Dunlap, Rosary Rally Captain and Champion of Mary The TFP let my family and me know about a Drag Queen Story Hour in Winona, Minn. and as we are always honored to help, we went. The attendees of the event tried to block the statue of Our Lady with blankets, though they did not attempt to cover our banner. After the event, an innocent child kept running up to Our Lady, much to his mother’s chagrin. Even a veil cannot stop a child who, when they can, would always choose heavenly beauty over a terrifying counterfeit. I tried to gaze only at the beauty of Our Blessed Mother. Towards the end of the second rosary, I turned and saw a bearded, male drag queen. “Ridiculous” came to mind. I’m confident Our Lady’s graces were received and did some good that day. May we remain under her protection, throwing wrenches in the plans of evil. Viva Christo Rey! Our Lady’s work continues. . . Drag Queen Story Hours, blasphemies, and sacrilegious acts occur with alarming frequency and must be peacefully and legally opposed. If you would like to be a Rosary Rally Captain and Champion of Mary in your community winning victories for Our Lady, please call (844) 830-3570 or email us at Protest@TFP.org.

Being committed to leading a Public Square Rosary Rally on October 16th in Lambertville, New Jersey, Rally Captain Alina needed just the right location. Having yet to choose her special spot, ANF alerted her that on that very day there would be a Drag Queen Storytime in her community. With the help assured by ANF to all protest captains, she was happy that we found the perfect spot for her and 9 other Catholics to stand and pray in reparation.

Rosaries in hand, with banners proclaiming “Praying the Rosary for America. Please join Us” and “Dear God Let NOT the Little Children Be Perverted by Drag Queen Story Hours”, Alina and her faithful rally participants offered reparation for the countless sins which are committed daily against the most Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. “We certainly felt the presence of God the Father, our Blessed Mother and the Heavenly Host at our Public Rosary Rally. God bless America Needs Fatima for what they do to coordinate this very important mission!” declared Alina.

Peaceful Protest in Los Angeles When the shocking news broke that the Loyola Marymount campus would host a Planned Parenthood fundraiser, rally captains Maureen and Laura agreed immediately to lead a rosary of reparation. On the evening of November 5, the co-captains arrived early at the campus entrance, set up banners, signs, and battery-powered lights, as the rally began after sunset. Maureen explained, “We were able to raise the banner above the pro-aborts who kept blocking the public’s view of it. And with the light shining on it, Our Lady was supreme!” Over 100 people, including students, rallied that night to make it clear they would not tolerate Planned Parenthood on a Catholic campus. Laura reported, “At 7:00 PM, we began to pray all 15 decades of the Rosary, followed by litanies and sacred music. There was truly a 2 spirit of prayer and peaceful protest.”


Confronting the Devil with the Rosary America Needs Fatima discovered there would be a black mass just days before it was to happen at the Satanic Temple’s headquarters in Salem, Massachusetts. Despite the short notice, Rally Captain Diana was happy to lead a rosary of reparation outside the Temple, and ANF sent invitations in English and Spanish to our members from miles around. On October 29, at 8:00 PM, Diana gathered with a group devoted to Our Lord to pray the rosary in Spanish. As they prayed, those going into the Temple made vulgar gestures at Diana and her group. “A man wearing a brown hooded gown came out on the porch of the Temple to stare us down,” Diana said. “It gave us so much energy to know that this Satanist thought he needed to intimidate us! We just prayed even louder.” Diana told us that when her rally was finished, more people came by to continue praying the rosary. May God bless Diana and all the prayer warriors who ventured out on that cold October evening for the love of Our Lord and Our Lady!

Short Notice in Springfield Rally co-captains and TFP members Rex Teodosio and Evan Olwell had just two days’ notice to organize a rosary rally protest against a Drag Queen Story Hour scheduled for October 23 in Springfield, Illinois. With such short notice, they knew they had to move quickly. “We were resolved to be there by ourselves,” said Rex. “Thanks be to God, a few others joined us.” One family drove four hours; another gentleman drove six.

Outnumbered by Angels As soon as she received a text letting her know there would be a Drag Queen Story Hour in the Bronx on October 30th, Rally Captain Carmen was happy to help. “I didn’t know this was happening, but I’ll go with my friends as little soldiers of Our Blessed Mother Mary,” said Carmen. Despite the chilling rain, the five faithful Catholics prayed the rosary and held up their banner. Our Lady and the angels were on their side, as the rosary rally protesters outnumbered the attendees of the Story Hour. “Passersby complained that we were not being nice, but nobody is unkinder than those who want to corrupt the innocence of children,” Carmen affirmed.

While they were praying, a passerby paused to join for a while then continued on his way, only to stop and join again in prayer on his way home. “A few people reacted against us,” declared one of the co-captains, “but most were in favor.” Ultimately, it was agreed that even with such short notice, prayer and action defending innocent children against the transgender/homosexual agenda will not go unrewarded by Our Lady.

Defending Our Lady in Manhattan

On November 16, the Alamo Drafthouse in lower Manhattan premiered Benedetta, the blasphemous film depicting a great sacrilege against the Blessed Virgin Mary. Fortunately, Rally Captains Barbara and Michael, accompanied by 12 prayer warriors stood in defense of Our Lady at a rosary rally of reparation and protest outside the theater. “It was a very blessed rally,” reported Michael. “There was a sense of peace, while at the same time a palpable sense of indignation at the blasphemy. All the attendees made a great effort to be there! We were very happy to be able to stand up for Our Lady and Our Lord against this abomination!” Barbara said, “We gave all the Glory to God for the success of the rally.”

If you want to grow in perfection you cannot advance by yourselves you need a guide. Hence, when you go to God,go through Mary and with Mary! -St. Maximilian Maria Kolbe

Joining Forces in Kokomo

Mariana desperately wanted to do something in her community of Kokomo, Indiana to help Our Lady. ANF needed a rally captain to protest a Drag Queen Storytime scheduled for October 21 at the IU Kokomo Library. Joining forces, Mariana hesitantly agreed as she had never before led a rally. However, with grace and confidence in Our Lady, she courageously decided she could do it. Two devoted prayer warriors drove over an hour to stand in the blustery fall weather to pray a Rosary Rally of protest and reparation with her. It was a wonderful success, and Our Lady and the Angels were certainly there, lending strength to Rally Captain Mariana and her fellow prayer warriors. If you would like to be a Captain like Mariana, please call (844) 830-3570 or email us at Protest@TFP.org.

St. Francis School, in Wheaton, Illinois, upholds Catholic doctrine by refusing to provide any special accommodations for transgender students. In support of St. Francis School, America Needs Fatima began to organize a rosary rally. Answering the call, Lauren, a Wheaton rally captain, enthusiastically agreed to lead it. In preparation for her rally, ANF sent Lauren a banner. Rally plans were going well when she was censured by townsfolk for defending the school. While they agreed the school was doing the right thing, opponents were worried that the public rally might reflect negatively on the school. ANF is proud to report that Lauren resolutely stood by her decision to pray a public rosary rally of thanksgiving and support! Thank you, Lauren! You are truly a Champion of Mary, and are dear to Our Lady as are all those who attended or prayed with you on rally day.
