The Rosary and the War Effort
The Church at War

The Church, like a nation, must defend herself and her faith. She must fight against the forces of evil for the salvation of souls. This demands doing battle, for which reason the Church on earth is called the Church Militant.

In this 2024 retreat series, Fr Emmerich Vogt focuses on the four levels of happiness and the relationship between our minds, bodies, and imagination. Fr Emmerich particularly encourages us to pray the Rosary in order to “imitate” what the mysteries contain and “obtain” what they promise. In using the Rosary to fill our minds with the beauty of the mysteries of our faith, we are then able to evangelize our lives and feelings and be part of the spiritual war effort against demonic evil so prevalent in today’s world. We must do our part which is intimately associated with  the mysteries of our faith expressed in the Holy Rosary which our Lady of Fatima, at each apparition, encouraged her children to pray.

Step 12: Having had a spiritual awakening as a result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to others, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

The Calling of the First Disciples

As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. “Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of men.” At once they left their nets and followed him.

(Matthew 4:18-20)

The Christian life is essentially missionary, as the above quote makes clear. Jesus came that we may have life, and have it to the full. The attainment of this fullness of life necessarily grows out of our relationships with other people, for we were created in the image of God and God is not solitude enclosed upon itself, but a trinity of persons. “It is not good for man to be alone” for that very reason. A person is someone who, by nature, is meant to exist in relationship to other persons. Our defects of character manifest themselves in our relationships with others; therefore, healing has to come about in a social context, without the false support of drugs, alcohol, or some other debilitating substitute. The disturbed personality is the one that is incapable of getting along. Restoration to wholeness is seen in our social relationships.
