Rosary Rally October 15 2022 - noon - Annunciation of the Lord Parish Ottawa ON

Today we joined our prayers with thousands of men, women, and children from coast to coast to pray for CANADA and the world in this PUBLIC SQUARE ROSARY CRUSADE  

https://canadaneedsourlady.org/public-square-rosary-rally/


Each year, Canada Needs Our Lady holds the Public Square Rosary Crusade, with Rosary Rallies in cities all across the country.

On October 16, 2021, there were 640+ groups simultaneously praying for our country and the world all across Canada!

These yearly Public Square Rosary Rallies took place on the Saturday closest to October 13, the feast of the last apparition of Our Lady of Fatima and the Miracle of the Sun.

( we didn't have a copy of the Rosary Rally prayers however we said the prayers from Divine Infant Parish in Orleans instead which includes a Marian consecration, numerous prayer intentions, and the Litany of Loreto

We your children thank you Mother Mary

40 Days for LIfe October 14, 2022 - Annunciation of the Lord Parish

 Pat and I went for7AM 

God bless Alain and Father Josh who also arrived around the same time but they stayed for the entire day( as far as I know ) What a courageous Duo!!!

Below, Pat and Father Joshua are outside the bubble zone ( facing the abortuary ) As peaceful as we always are there is no freedom of speech for pro-lifers and it gets worse every year! I guess our beliefs are "unacceptable"?



CIBC doesn't like us praying too close to their building. Go figure!

Grandma Growing Up: The Present / Thanksgiving 2022


Father Rob's homily today inspired me to post this again  
( taken from my Grandma Growing Up blog )

Grandma Growing Up: The Present


It was a gift like no other. It was passed down to me from mommy and daddy but also from my grandparents and my great-grandparents

I received it early on and it has always stayed with me. I couldn’t, wouldn’t let it out of my sight, so I took it with me everywhere I went. It was with me when I slept when I played when I helped mommy and daddy when I was happy and when I was sad, during hard times, during happy times, when the world made sense and when it didn’t: It WAS, it IS the gift of my FAITH

Our Lady of the Rosary October 7 - The moon reflects the greater light












 

My Pro-Life Wish for 2023

 Is that every Church in Canada does this next October!

Below are some of the Churches that participated!

I really like the idea of Evangelizing like this in front of one's Place of Worship

"Mississauga Ontario Pro-Lifers, you rock big time!"

Talk about Evangelizing!!!
