"Unite as a nation to pray to establish a Culture of Life, restore God's law, protect the Church and the Faithful from Persecution, and achieve Peace."

This feast will link with the apparition of Our Lady of Guadalupe to St. Juan Diego on 12-09-1531, and at 11pm to midnight CST the entire nation will be united in prayer - the "Hour of Unity."
