With specific attention to the inspired works of Pius XII including his writings and encyclicals, charitable works, valiant championship of the faith and virtues, liturgical and Eucharistic directives, proclamation of the Dogma of the Assumption, as well as his guidance of the Church and his documented humanitarian efforts during one of the most dangerous and critical periods of world history. It is the mission of this commemoration to make more widely known the saintly life of this major world figure whose memory has endured unfounded and unjust attacks misdirecting the regard of his true legacy.
