Dear fasting friends,

For these next five days between Fast Friday today and Election Day on Tuesday, we are encouraging everyone to be totally united with the Most Holy Trinity, the Blessed Mother - particularly Our Lady of America, St. Joseph, St. Michael, and all the Angels and Saints for PEACE to descend upon our nation.

Much of the world is expecting and preparing for upheaval greater than we are currently experiencing in many cities across America. This indeed is prudent, HOWEVER, the Lord has impressed upon my heart that we should focus more on offensive measures than defensive.

How do we do this?

We boldly rebuke the powers of hell. We do not let the Spirit of Fear distract us from rejoicing in the Lord's love for our country and His mandate given to Our Lady of America that our nation will lead the world to peace.

We praise God for all the good people of every race and culture across the United States, rather than fret over the relatively small number of paid looters and hooters getting all the media exposure.

We thank God for all the peace that exists in homes, cities, and towns across America. We glorify the name of Jesus and in His name rebuke, rebuke, rebuke!

We find peace in our hearts by placing our complete TRUST in the Lord's mercy and His Divine Will.

We stay in constant communion with Heaven as I mentioned above, rejoicing in the victory that has been promised no matter what happens. Remember the Cross. Things looked pretty bleak, but then the great miracle of the Resurrection occurred. That is how God works!

Forego a Piece for Peace

Make acts of reparation and sacrifices throughout each day. This is where A Piece for Peace in the USA comes in. Cut back on a piece of food and some drink over the next five days. Cut back on social media. Offer a piece of your time to help someone in need. Contribute a piece of your income or savings to a worthy organization or cause. You get the picture.

Remember, love is what conquers all. Do all you do and offer all you offer with great love and then rest in the knowledge that you have done everything within your power in this battle for peace which is all the Lord asks of us.

Our wishes for peace go out to you and your loved ones. God bless you and may God bless America, and the whole world, because of you.

Peace out!  ---- Joan and Dave
