(LifeSiteNews) — Catholics for Catholics has announced that Bishop Joseph Strickland of Tyler, Texas, will lead a Rosary rally on Sunday, August 6, to save Ohio’s children from abortion and genital mutilation.
The announcement was posted on X, formerly Twitter, and reads: “BREAKING: ‘America’s Bishop’ to Lead Prayer Rally for Ohio’s Children! – Aug 6th – Eve of Historic Election…..God Bless.”
Catholic actor Jim Caviezel and former Planned Parenthood executive-turned-pro-life advocate Abby Johnson will be speaking at the rally, which will be held from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. at Dorl Field in Norwood, Ohio, 10 minutes from downtown Cincinnati. The rally will also feature General Michael Flynn, a senior adviser of Catholics for Catholics, in addition to other prominent Christian leaders.

As LifeSiteNews has previously reported, the August 6 Rosary rally will pray for the passage of and encourage as many people as possible to vote “yes” on Issue 1, which would require a larger majority of Ohioans to vote in favor of any new proposed constitutional amendments and could prevent the radical pro-abortion amendment from being passed.
A special election on Issue 1 will be held on Tuesday, August 8.
A proposal to amend the Ohio Constitution to enshrine abortion as a “right” recently gained enough signatures to land on the ballot in November. If approved by Ohio voters, it will categorically forbid the prohibition of abortion after “viability” if such an abortion were deemed allegedly necessary by a physician “to protect the pregnant patient’s [sic] life or health.”
Conservative critics have also warned that the broad language of the amendment could allow children to obtain genital mutilation surgeries in the state without parental notification and consent because the proposal bans any direct or indirect interference or burdens placed upon “reproductive decisions.”

Bishop Strickland is one of America’s most outspoken bishops on the moral and cultural issues that are threatening children, marriage, families, and the integrity of the faith. He prominently led a Eucharistic procession outside of Dodger Stadium in June on the feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in protest against the Dodgers’ scandalous honoring of the anti-Catholic “drag nuns” called the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.
Bishop Strickland’s defense of Catholic teaching on the sanctity of life and marriage is greatly appreciated by faithful Catholics.
