Other than that it’s nice to know Jon D is on the air some place.

Probably someone who wants to watch something else on the TV.

The youtube link is viable. I cannot hear it, though, computer problems on my end.

The links in the header lead to “article not found”.
How long ago was this article by Dee Deuatro posted at WPRO Newstalk? Was it there once? Or did you hear it mentioned on air?

This could matter a bit. For if it wasn’t on the radio station’s site as an article...then maybe some gentle folk could persuade them into doing some follow-up.

If they yanked something they had there, then that might tell us something, too, even as one should be cautious about leaping to conclusions.

I could not find contact info that would go direct to
DeQuattro.

I do need to know if the radio station once had an item entitled; Retirement home bans seniors from praying the Rosary, before I would try to contact them, myself.

Can you help me out here?

My Uncle Just passed two weeks ago in a Nursing home. When he first would go to the emergency room. I would go to the Hospital. I would pray the Divine Mercy with Him in the emergency area. On one instance. This was a saturday which is usually busy.

I was praying for my uncle in intentions and the world(also the emergency room) as that pray goes. We were there for hours.

A head nurse came up later she was going to kick me out but asked the others. They noticed since I was praying all the acrimony has stopped that was there just hours ago on a normal crazy saturday. She asked me to keep praying. I almost fell off the chair they gave me. I was expecting to fight for my right.

With that being said.

I want to pray for these at the Nursing home.

Please join in if you understand this type of pray. Thanks.

Eternal Father we through the blood loose and bind these oppressive spirits that are causing this issue. Go forth ministering spirits in Jesus's name to protect this christian witness of the faith for all who oppose you. That they too will know you as a true child of God.

Amen=So be It!!

I’m waiting for someone to post that it’s a Catholic nursing home. But I don’t think it is - not a religious name.

Get ir right. The First Amendment applies to the government stifling free speech. Don’t make the same communications mistakes the liberal progressives. We need to control the message by communicating it correctly.

Are you on one of Obnama’s Obamacare execution committees? You are exhibiting the same kind of discernment they will.

Perhaps she could have found another room with a TV for them to use and perhaps the person who complained is an old crank who should have been ignored, but I’m not going to assign bad motives to the director unless I see more.

Usually the nursing homes have more than one room to meet. We used to do a bible study for some of the nursing home residents and we were assigned the room where they would have mass on Sundays and preachers for others.

The Activities Director (a job I held for many years) has that responsibility. I do not pray the Rosary myself, but I always scheduled an hour a week for the “Rosary group”. A Volunteer from the local Catholic Church would come in and lead the group in prayer. I also had a Bible Study once a week, and Oneg Shabbat for our Jewish Residents. I had one Jehovah Witness lady who attended all three religious programs every week. She loved them.

The ones ones who did not want to participate were under no obligation to do so.

Call Thomas More Law Center. They cannot do this to these people.
