Building a Foundation of Prayer - Isaac Longworth

40 Days for Life Fall 2021 - Closing Rally - October 31

Today ends this years  40 Days for Life Campaign of Prayer and Fasting to end abortion. My sister Barbara and I plan on being at the vigil site this evening for the  Closing Rally

(southwest corner of Queen Street at Bank Street) at 7:00 pm. I will be attending mass at Notre Dame Cathedral at 5 this evening beforehand and after mass will make my way to the vigil site

Hope to see you there

Ok so I arrived at the vigil site around 6:30 after attending Mass at Notre Dame Cathedral. Barb arrived shortly after. By seven there were between 60 - 70 prayerful souls praise God! The weather was beautiful and there was a really nice lady ( Deanna) passing out chocolate bars which was kind of nice since I love chocolate and I think chocolate should be included as one of the main food groups. 

Anyways I took a few videos below

She offers some insight on how to be conscious of one's actions and finding their authentic voice. In addition to discussing wokeness, they also delve into politics in connection to religion, in-group preference, and accepting other perspectives. Check out how Africa was influenced by Dr. Peterson in this episode. "

Canada Needs Our Lady - Saturday, October 16, 2021 Noon

My sister Pat and I had initially planned on joining the Noon Hour Prayer Rally at McArthur and Prince of Wales in Ottawa but decided on joining a group on Quincy Ave in Beacon Hill mainly because it was closer to where we lived.  As it turned out nothing was happening at the Quincy location  ( we waited a while) so we decided to pray at Mary's Grotto at the Annunciation of the Lord Catholic Church 2414 Ogilvie Road. There were just the two of us along with Mary of course and our Guardian Angels

Genocide in Ireland / 1845-1851

Pilgrimage to Ennistymon

Jimmy Patricia and Maureen

with obituary of our great great grandfather John Maloney 

Background to the Maloney Brother's Emigration from Clare click here

“The Irish Famine of 1845 to 1852 was the greatest social calamity, in terms of morality and suffering, that Ireland has ever experienced."
From Ireland's Great Hunger Museum

" More evictions took place in the County here (Clare) than in any other in Ireland. By the time the Famine had ended, up to eighty thousand souls had perished in Clare.  

Those who survived this holocaust could rarely bring themselves to speak of it to their children and when they did invariably referred to it indirectly as "An Drochshaol - the Bad Times"

From the memorial in Ennistymon, Clare

 “The Great Hunger: Ireland 1845–1849” that “…no issue has provoked so much anger or so embittered relations between the two countries (England and Ireland) as the indisputable fact that huge quantities of food were exported from Ireland to England throughout the period when the people of Ireland were dying of starvation.” 

"Cecil Woodham-Smith, noted scholar and author “The Great Hunger”

Expert on Residential Schools Speaks Up - Brian Holdsworth Interviews Dr. Rodney Clifton

"We can't have reconciliation, we can't have harmony, we can't have comradarie  and peace without abiding in the truth. The truth is something that is rare. That is why we value the truth.  Anything that is highly valued tends to be rare. People value precious metal because they are harder to find. Well, the truth is harder to find as well. If you find yourself in a situation where everybody seems to be adopting a narrative that they all think is true and they're swept up in it and they are holding on to it with white knuckled enthusiasm, that has to make you wonder sometimes if the truth is found there." Brian Holdsworth

"Rodney brings a unique perspective, not merely from his own experience, although he does have a great depth of personal experience to share, but also as an expert, as a PHD Sociologist who provided research, and training and teaching through the University of Manitoba, in that capacity he brought together a team of researchers who poured over the vast documentation of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission which was brought together to investigate the history of Residential Schools and to arrive at the Truth of the matter. As he mentions in this interview there are three thousand plus pages in that document and so there are very few people who have actually familiarized themselves with the entirety of that content and even if they have, keeping all that in ordered understanding and perspective is still quite the challenge and that's why so many people rely on the Media to give us the bite sized portions of that or the TRC Summary Report which we discussed in this conversation as well.  I've listened to testimonies. I have read reports and I even read a letter today written by an academic  to his students in which he conceded the worst parts of the Narrative that we have come to adopt about Residential Schools which is Universally negative, let's admit that for a second, and which he also says 'it's wrong to be defensive about this we have to admit our failings and we have to be willing to be able to examine the Truth even if it makes us uncomfortable'" Brian Holdsworth
