Known for several centuries by the alternate title of “Our Lady of Victory,” the feast day takes place in honor of a 16th century naval victory which secured Europe against Turkish invasion. Pope St. Pius V attributed the victory to the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, who was invoked on the day of the battle through a campaign to pray the Rosary throughout Europe. The feast always occurs one week after the similar Byzantine celebration of the Protection of the Mother of God, which most Eastern Orthodox Christians and Eastern Catholics celebrate on October 1 in memory of a 10th-century military victory which protected Constantinople against invasion after a reported Marian apparition. Pope Leo XIII was particularly devoted to Our Lady of the Rosary, producing 11 encyclicals on the subject of this feast and its importance in the course of his long pontificate. In the first of them, 1883's “Supremi Apostolatus Officio,” he echoed the words of the oldest known Marian prayer (known in the Latin tradition as the “Sub Tuum Praesidium”), when he wrote, “It has always been the habit of Catholics in danger and in troublous times to fly for refuge to Mary.” “This devotion, so great and so confident, to the august Queen of Heaven,” Pope Leo continued, “has never shone forth with such brilliancy as when the militant Church of God has seemed to be endangered by the violence of heresy … or by an intolerable moral corruption, or by the attacks of powerful enemies.” Foremost among such “attacks” was the battle of Lepanto, a perilous and decisive moment in European and world history. Troops of the Turkish Ottoman Empire had invaded and occupied the Byzantine empire by 1453, bringing a large portion of the increasingly divided Christian world under a version of Islamic law. For the next hundred years, the Turks expanded their empire westward on land, and asserted their naval power in the Mediterranean. In 1565 they attacked Malta, envisioning an eventual invasion of Rome. Though repelled at Malta, the Turks captured Cyprus in the fall of 1570. The next year, three Catholic powers on the continent – Genoa, Spain, and the Papal States - formed an alliance called the Holy League, to defend their Christian civilization against Turkish invasion. Its fleets sailed to confront the Turks near the west coast of Greece on October 7, 1571. Crew members on more than 200 ships prayed the Rosary in preparation for the battle - as did Christians throughout Europe, encouraged by the Pope to gather in their churches to invoke the Virgin Mary against the daunting Turkish forces. Some accounts say that Pope Pius V was granted a miraculous vision of the Holy League's stunning victory. Without a doubt, the Pope understood the significance of the day's events, when he was eventually informed that all but 13 of the nearly 300 Turkish ships had been captured or sunk. He was moved to institute the feast now celebrated universally as Our Lady of the Rosary. “Turkish victory at Lepanto would have been a catastrophe of the first magnitude for Christendom,” wrote military historian John F. Guilmartin, Jr., “and Europe would have followed a historical trajectory strikingly different from that which obtained.” From the Catholic News Agency.www.catholicnewsagency.com EUCHARISTIC ADORATION The Chapel is open 24 hours a day, from 6pm Sunday evenings until Noon on Saturdays.

Stop Federal Funding of Planned Parenthood The release of undercover videos showing a willingness by Planned Parenthood officials to traffic in fetal organs and tissue has quite properly stirred strong reactions in Congress and the general public.

Consideration of the Senate bill was blocked but can be brought up again. Please contact your Senators and Representative today! RECOMMENDED ACTION: 1. Send e-mails through NCHLA’s Human Life Action Center. nchla.org/actiondisplay.asp?ID=319 Note: Messages to Senators will thank those who voted for S. 1881 and ask Senators who voted against S. 1881 to reconsider their position.

The Psalmist says that in the home where husband and wife are seated at table, children appear at their side “like olive shoots” full of energy and vitality. The children are like the “living stones” of the family. The most often used Old Testament word “child” (ben) is related to the verb “to build” (banah). Hence, Psalm 128 uses imagery drawn from the building of a house and the social life of cities: “Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the sons of one’s youth. Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them!” The presence of children is a sign of the continuity of the family in salvation history. 15. The New Testament speaks of “churches that meet in homes.” A family’s living space could turn into a domestic church, a setting for the Eucharist, the presence of Christ seated at its table. In the Book of Revelation the Lord says, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any one hears my voice and opens, I will come in to him and eat with him.” Here we see a home filled with the presence of God, common prayer and every blessing. 16. The Bible also presents the family as the place where children are brought up in the faith. One of the Psalms celebrates the proclamation of faith within families: “All that we have heard and known, that our fathers have told us, we will not hide from their children. …He established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel, which he commanded our fathers to teach to their children.” The family is the place where parents are the children’s first teachers in the faith. They learn this “trade,” passing it down from one person to another. 17. Parents have a serious responsibility for this work of education, as the Bible often remind us. Children are called to accept and practice the commandment: “Honor your father and your mother.” “Whoever honors his father atones for sins, and whoever glorifies his mother is like one who lays up treasure.” 18. The Gospel reminds us that children are not the property of a family¸ but have their own lives. Jesus is a model of obedience to his earthly parents, but he also shows that children’s vocation may demand a parting for the sake of the Kingdom of God (Lk 9:59-62).
