We Must Re-Christianize America, Father Hardon stresses the need for true spirituality and the great need to Re-evangelize and states:

This is my 31st year in working for the Holy See. The single most important responsibility which the Holy Father and the Vatican has given me, to inspire the laity, the faithful devoted laity, to preserve and promote the Catholic Faith. I want to summarize what I want to say with you in seven letters.

L. L S. W. C. O. S. or E.

L. Learn the Faith.

L. Live the Faith.

S. Speak the Faith, what we believe we talk about.

W. Write about and defend the Faith.

C. Cooperate, and get Catholics to cooperate.

O. Organize, get orthodox Catholic to organize, especially the Bishops.

S. or E. Be willing to suffer for the Faith, be willing to sacrifice for the Faith. Endure, we need to exhaust ourselves for the Faith.
