In Oklahoma City this week on the Feast of the Assumption, Satanists held a Black Mass during which they desecrated a statue of the Virgin Mary. American bishops spoke out and urged Catholics to come together and pray for peace and healing.

Cardinal Raymond Burke, delivered an impassioned plea: “I ask and beseech each of you to unite with me on this day as I offer Holy Mass and pray a Holy Rosary in reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Let us also pray for the poor souls that are perpetrating these blasphemies. I urge you to invite your family members, your friends and other fellow Catholics to join in this act of reparation.”
