You would just choose something else you can deny yoursel f of. \r\nThe intentions are simple, it is a penance for the conversio n of sinners and to beg the intercession of Our Lady for the mercy of God upon this world.  It is a much needed response to the obvious war ning God is sending us on April 8th.\r\nIf you put no stock in said wa rning that is of course up to each person but regardless this is a pen ance the world needs desperately.\r\nMankind must find repentance and as the priest said in this sermon, it is up to Catholics alone to answ er the call to implore Heaven for this mercy.\r\nIf you consider yours elf a true Crusader of Mary just know you are being called to the fron t lines on this.  If not you...then who?\r\nA caveat: While this serm on is very very good we do not give credence to the Divine Mercy devot ion.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n \r\n\n\nFor more information visit https://op54r osary.ning.com/events/the-fast-of-esther DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240408T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240518T235900 CATEGORIES:fast LOCATION:worldwide WEBSITE: URL: CONTACT: ORGANIZER:Crusaders of the Immaculate Heart ATTACH;FMTTYPE="image/jpeg":https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0 /file/get/12421648480?profile=original ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="John J R izk":https://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/JohnJRizk ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Steven J ames Monk":https://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/StevenJamesMonk ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN=Christina :https://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/Christinapetro ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Everett Thomas Kettler":https://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/EverettThomasKettl er ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Liza Opr andi":https://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/LizaOprandi ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="William N Conti":https://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/WilliamNConti ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Anne-Mar ie ":https://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/AnneMarie ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN=Laura:htt ps://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/Laura ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN=Jake:http s://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/Jake ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Mrs Mary Jo Holtschlag":https://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/MrsMaryJoHoltschla g ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN=Alan:http s://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/NAlanAnderson ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Anne Raj agopal":https://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/AnneRajagopal ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Jon Hall iwell":https://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/JonCrichtonHalliwell ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Ana De V alle":https://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/AnaDeValle ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Carol He nderson":https://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/CarolHenderson ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN=Joseph:ht tps://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/Joseph957 ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN=Margie:ht tps://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/MargieTiritilli ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Flavia T alladen Schott":https://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/FlaviaTalladenScho tt ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="David Go rdon Paul LePage":https://op54rosary.ning.com/profile/DavidGordonPaulL ePage ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Susan L.
