The story of Our Lady of the Cape is the story of the "Revival of the Archconfraternity of the Most Holy Rosary to unleash a torrent of grace upon the earth for the conversion of souls." 

Below are excerpts from the authorization letter from the Dominican Promoter General of the Rosary.

If Our Lady of the Cape is touching your heart to either "lend support" or become part of the "MDM's mission" for the salvation of souls, a reading of the full letter will fill you with joy! 

...it is the hope of the Master of the Order of Preachers that we shall work towards the renewal and reinvigoration of the Archconfraternity of the Holy Rosary.

 

...aid us in promoting and preaching Our Lady’s Rosary, for the salvation of souls.

 

Therefore, I hope that you will lend support to the Girards and the MDM in their mission, and that you will prayerfully discern how, to the honour of Our Lady and the glory of God, you might participate in the renewal and expansion of the Archconfraternity of the Holy Rosary.

Thank you. I remain, yours in the service of Our Blessed Mother, 

Father Lawrence Lew, O.P. Promoter Generalis pro Rosario.
