About The Holy Sword Apostolate
Mission Statement
To empower people through education and prayer to find peace and liberation.
What is the Holy Sword Apostolate?
A private, independent ministry that covers the areas of healing, blessings, peace, liberation, and deliverance. Though drawing from Western/Eastern Catholic traditions, this ministry does not discriminate against whom we pray with.
Tribute to Ed & Lorraine Warren
As an Apostolate, we pay tribute to the memory and legacy of Ed and Lorraine. They truly are the “Godparents” of the Paranormal. They were pioneers in the field, and their wisdom still inspires us.
