Defenders

 

“Our Lord showed me this Association as an army of brave soldiers, uniting themselves to Him as to their Commander-in-Chief, to defend the glory of His Father. It is His Will that this militia be called ‘The Defenders of the Holy Name of God,’ so that this noble title should give evidence of the high calling of those enrolled.”

Sr. Mary of St. Peter, Revelation from Jesus, February 2, 1844
