In this episode, we talk with Joe Alger, one of our great military veterans. Joe is also the director of military outreach, supplying chaplains with religious goods for soldiers. Thankfully, Joe is offering to assist in this new initiative to provide as many Combat Rosaries as possible to our heroes in the military.
Joe came on to talk with us about this exciting new initiative entitled, “Combat Rosaries for Heroes[1],” which launched just yesterday, on February 23, 2021, which was the 76th anniversary of the iconic photo showing the flag being raised by the U.S. Marines on Iwo Jima during the latter part of World War II.
Combat Rosaries for Heroes Inc.[2] will raise funds to provide a free Combat Rosary™ to as many of these heroes as possible. Father Heilman designed the Combat Rosary™ based on the 1916 pull-chain Rosary issued by the U.S. government during World War I. The Rosary is made of steel and features a gunmetal finish. The Combat Rosary™ is carried by the Pontifical Swiss Guard at the Vatican. Each donated Rosary will come with a protective leather zippered case so the sacramental can be easily tucked in a pocket.
Donate at CombatRosariesForHeroes.com[3]. Checks can be sent to P.O. Box 44036, Madison, WI 53744.
