From a reader:
Perhaps others have already contacted you about this, but I believe you could be very helpful in this and therefore, I will bring it to your attention also.
Today, the coalition of students against President Obama’s invitation as commencement speaker at Notre Dame held its first public demonstration, with a speech from Catholic lawyer Harold Cassidy, followed by a recitation of the Holy Rosary. It was also announced that beginning this Wednesday (8 April), we will officially begin a 40 day rosary prayer vigil with the specific intention of the conversion of Obama’s heart in regard to life issues. It was decided that if Our Blessed Mother would ask this for the conversion of Russia, then surely Notre Dame, Our Lady, would appreciate such a response to the current situation at Her university. We hope that at the end of 40 days, which is the day of commencement (17 May), we will essentially be able to present our president with a spiritual bouquet of millions of rosaries prayed with him in mind.
Fr. Zuhlsdorf, you know that many Catholic people around the world read your blog daily. If you could help promote this rosary campaign to make it even more effective, we at Notre Dame would be very appreciative.
I am not sure how this will be organized, but it sounds like a good project.
