Every drop of blood shed by the valiant martyrs, every sigh
heaved by the silent victims of oppression, every supplication for divine
assistance offered by the faithful, has released, and will continue
mysteriously to release, forces over which no antagonist of the Faith has any
control, and which, as marshalled by an All-Watchful Providence, have served to
noise abroad the name and fame of the Faith to the masses of humanity in all
continents, millions of whom had previously been totally ignorant of the
existence of the Faith or had but a superficial, and oft-times erroneous,
understanding of its teachings and history.
