TOGETHER IN PRAYER TO GOD FOR AMERICA (Nov. 4, Holy Hour for the Nation, Presentation Church)

Almost 40 persons, English and Spanish speakers, adored the Blessed Sacrament for peaceful and transparent elections at a special Holy Hour for the Nation at Presentation Church on the eve of Election Day. The service was led by Fr. Rojas, our pastor, in both languages as well as chants in Latin and Greek (Kyrie). Included was the "Prayer for our Government" written in 1791 by Abp. John Carroll of Baltimore, the first Catholic bishop and archbishop of the U.S.A. and a bilingual reading of 1 Tim 2:1-4.
