The riots and unrest of the summer of 2020 inspired a concerned Catholic woman to do something meaningful and impactful. Being among the ranks of the Church Militant, immediate action was needed to defend the Church and country during this distressing time.
The result of weeks of prayer and contemplation was the idea of making public reparations to Our Lord and Our Lady through a vibrant Catholic billboard campaign. This was indeed an answer to prayer and a grace from the hands of Our Blessed Mother.
The idea was enthusiastically received, and two women selflessly offered to help with logistics and graphic design. They partnered with many generous benefactors and were able to display Catholic billboards at 13 locations in August of 2020 and 10 additional areas in September and October of the same year.
The public response was outstanding! People were stunned to see Catholic billboards along the freeways of metro Phoenix. Word spread rapidly through social media, and Catholic ministries in several states wanted to do the same. Billboard art was shared, and help was given to launch campaigns and establish relationships with local billboard companies.
And just like that, Catholic billboards went up from California to New York and several states in between!
The turmoil in the world hasn't abated, and even though there are many reasons to be hopeful, the need for public reparations and gratitude (the recent Consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the overturning of Roe v. Wade) must continue.

We are currently working to become a 501c3 to accommodate year-round tax-deductible fundraising to promote our rich Catholic faith and heritage and help others across the country to do the same.
