For anyone who knows the history of Lepanto, or Fatima, this note needs no further explaination.

Wasn't Fatima Muhammed's daughter?

Sr. Lucy's (Fatima apparition witness) convent confirmed that there, indeed, had been an apparation of the Blessed Virgin Mary to Sister Lucy on Saturday, 06 October 2001 AD. When the Blessed Mother appeared to Sister Lucy, she was very, very sad. She told Sister Lucy that the Faithful needed to pray many rosaries in order to prevent a blood bath.

Our Lady of Victory celebrates the defeat of the muslims in Europe centuries ago. Praying the Rosary will help to defeat the muslim and islamic hertical system and false religion once aqgain. The Mother of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ asks everyone to pray for the salvation of souls and for conversion and repentance. I will join those that pray.

I hate to start the rumor mill going crazy, but this came across my wife's Catholic e-mail list today:

Following is the text of a letter written on October 7th (Feast of the Holy Rosary) by a Benedictine Nun in France to her parents who live here in St. Marys [Kansas]:
Dear Mom and Dad,
Our Lady appeared to Lucia of Fatima (She often does, they say) and asked her to have all the Catholics around the world pray the rosary with great insistence TODAY (feast of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary). Our Lady told Lucia to have the rosary said from midnight this morning till midnight (tonight) asking God to spare the world .... from blood shedding (her words were "from a sea of blood") which is very imminent and in preparation.
Lucia spread the message to Carmels (Carmelite Convents) around the world and one sent us a fax this morning; we're having Adoration all day and the rosary (15 decades) after None (note: Divine Office). If Father hasn't heard this PLEASE ask him to have the parish pray the rosary today.
The Holy Father has also asked every Catholic around the world to say the rosary every day in October for peace in the world, and he insisted. Today especially because Our Lady asked that. A factory in Touluse (in France...the factory produces powder for munitions) exploded a week or so ago; they're almost certain that it was done by the same Islamic group that did the crimes in New York and D.C.
Our Lady can obtain peace for us, but we must pray, especially the rosary. See what you can do to get this message of Our Lady to anyone and everyone TODAY....

Two quick observations:

1) Given that the nun's parents live in St. Mary's, Kansas, there is at least a reasonable chance that this is coming by way of the Society of St. Pius X.

2) Regardless of whether or not it's true, saying the Rosary for Sister Lucy's intentions and for world peace is a good idea, ESPECIALLY on the 13th.

Catholic bump

I have to admit, I've never prayed the "Full 15", but tomorrow I will, even if I have to lock myself in the bathroom to have a few moments away from the kids.

On second thought, THEY"RE going to pray it with me :-)

I'm pretty sure these are Catholic, if you know some others why not ping them?

I hope I spelled their handles right.

She's been trying to tell us; I hope enough of us are listening. I've got a Hail Mary screen saver and it has a chant...I'll keep it going.

I'm glad Jesus never said the rosary! He didn't need a mediator and thanks to Him neither do we.

Up to the top!

Please pray the Rosary. Not only today but everyday.
