ROSARY RALLY OCTOBER 14, 2017
Last Saturday, October 14, 2017 was the 10th Rosary Rally sponsored
by America Needs Fatima. There were 21,570 rallies that day throughout
America and I was blessed to be one of the rally captains of this
blessed event.
My rally was held in a park in Sterling Hts, Michigan. The weather was gloomy and rainy but it did not prevent us from holding our yearly rally. My husband and I decided to go early to the park to see if the covered pavilion is available. Thank God and the Blessed Mother...it was available, although we have to share it with a group of people. We were so glad and thankful that our dearest friend, Gus, helped us to set up.

We were so glad and thankful that our dearest friend, Gus, helped us to set up.
At 12 noon, we started....we sang, recited the Rosary, intentions,
consecration and other prayers. There was a guy from the group that was
loud that listened and came to sit with us. He asked me if he could keep
the copy of the 10 reasons why we do a rosary rally in public and he
was quite impressed. I noticed that he took one of the rosaries on the
table and was trying to follow us. I gave him a brochure with the
illustrations of how to pray the rosary. I hope and pray that he got
something good out of this. Who knows? He might start to pray the
rosary!
Our challenges last Saturday? The devil was hard at work! The group of men were playing in the back and they were sooooo loud! We had to compete with them, when they became loud, our voices in unison became louder also. It was a shouting match at times which we tried to ignore and just kept on praying. God is good! We were able to finish our prayers beautifully and the loud mouth men did not dampen our spirits.
After the prayers, we stayed to socialize. Can you believe that these men were not as loud when we were praying? Go figure!
We were all so happy to see and talk to each other again. I think it was almost 2 pm when we finished and we all cannot wait for next year's rally which will be on October 13, 2018. Mark your calendars!
I want to thank each and everyone of the participants in my rally. I want to especially thank Gus for all the help he did. Thank you Gus, Baby & Ed for your help! Thank you all! You guys are the best! Thank you God and the Blessed Mother for another successful rally!
OMG! On the way back to our cars, the rain poured! God gave us a sprinkle of " Holy Water" in the form of rain! We truly received our blessing that day!
May God bless America and the whole world! May God bless all of us!

Rosary Rally 2017
REMINDER TO ALL TO PRAY FOR AMERICA AND THE WHOLE WORLD..........
ROSARY RALLY 2017, sponsored by America Needs Fatima, will be on October 14th at 12 noon local time. Goal: 20,000 rosary rallies across the U S....please join your local group!
I am truly honored to be a part of this great ROSARY CRUSADE that keeps on growing every year. I am truly blessed to have been a part of this since the inception....10 years ago in 2007 ( October), the same year ( May 2007) I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I can remember taking invitations to churches from Sterling Hts to St Clair Shores and calling people to join us.
I am also in awe at the hard work and dedication America Needs Fatima does to make sure the rallies are successful every year. I saw first hand how they recruit volunteers to call people all over America to be a part of these rallies. I was blessed and honored to heed the call of the Blessed Mother to volunteer in 2008. Together with my sister from Canada, we spent a week in Rossville, Kansas calling prospective rally captains. It was truly a joy to hear people say yes to us. It was a week to remember....the organization's leaders were very nice and very accommodating. The volunteers were amazing...some were bilingual which was a plus who helped interpreting with the phone calls.
My first rally was held in front of St Jane and we had people from Mt Clemens, Sterling Hts, Troy, St Clair Shores and Canada. I remember someone brought a beautiful statue of the Blessed Mother to be with us during the rally to which I was really thankful. Even though we were all freezing since it was cold and windy, we had a good time praying. Since then, we moved to the park and it has been our gathering place every year ......sunny, windy, rain, snow or sleet!
I thank God and the Blessed Mother for the beautiful people that keep on coming every year to help make the Rosary Rally a success! I thank America Needs Fatima for organizing these wonderful rallies every year! Hip! Hip! Hooray!
Uh, oh....I talked too much...anyway, please join us or your local rally near you.......thank you! May God bless all of us!
When: October 14, 2017 ( Saturday)
Where: James C. Nelson Park, 15 Mile Rd, Sterling Hts, Mi
Time : 12 noon sharp local time
Please bring your rosary & chair.

WHAT'S IN YOUR FOOD? JUNE 24, 2017
Do you know what is in your food? You will probably say, " Yes!"
Have you ever wondered what " genetically engineered or GMO means?
GMO is also known as genetically engineered, genetically modified or Frankenfood. It seems that more and more products have the words " genetically engineered " on the packages of food.
Per Wikipedia, Genetically modified foods, GM foods or genetically engineered foods, are foods produced from organisms that have had changes introduced into their DNA using the methods of genetic engineering as opposed to traditional cross breeding. In the U.S., the Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) favor the use of "genetic engineering" over "genetic modification" as the more precise term; the USDA defines genetic modification to include "genetic engineering or other more traditional methods."
(GMOs) refers to foods that have been modified to withstand heavy doses of pesticides, mainly glyphosate, or are engineered to contain a toxin that kills bugs when they feed on the crop. Currently, up to 93% of US corn crops were genetically modified and a staggering 96% of US soybeans grown were GMO, and those aren’t the only genetically modified foods. With these biotech foods making their way into the majority of our food, it’s important to consider their safety....https://www.mamavation.com/2015/05/hidden-gmo-ingredients.html
Why am I into the GMO subject? Great! I thought you will never ask! Here is my story.
I have been buying LOUISIANA HOT SAUCE for a very long time. The bottle that I recently bought was opened a few weeks ago. When it was poured in the food we were going to eat, we noticed several clumps inside the bottle that we have not seen in previous bottles. We thought that maybe they were molds. I wrote Louisiana Foods and here is their reply..."Thank you for the email. I have taken a look at your picture that you sent and what you are seeing is not mold but it is oxidation. The Louisiana Hot Sauce consist of three ingredients which are salt, vinegar and peppers, and all you would need to do is shake the bottle up real good and it will come back to its normal consistency ."
I wrote back and told them I am scared to feed this to my family, and that Wow! All I need is to shake it! Woo hoo! Shake, shake, shake, shake your junk away! Hmmmm.....How about you, looking at the bottle? I further asked what is genetically engineered and which ingredient was modified. Guess what? They never answered me back. Any comments?
I went to the store where I bought it, showed it to customer service. She told me that it looks like something is growing in the bottle and she would not consume it either. She gave me a replacement bottle which is still unopened. I do not know when it will be opened.
Back to the ingredient that was altered. Guess what? It is not the pepper! It is more than likely, per reading some more that it is the vinegar! Can you believe that? Why vinegar? That is a good question! Do you know how to make vinegar? No? Neither do I! Hehehehe...Looks like we do not know anything. That is not good, is it?
Well, vinegar is made of either apples or corn plus water. That explains everything, is it not? Most of the corn we eat are genetically modified! So, everything that has corn is genetically modified. How about organic food? That is a good question, we have to do research. But if you do not want food that has been altered, we have to grow our own.
Take care and read your labels before you buy!
May God bless all of us!

MEMORIAL DAY MAY 29, 2017
Memorial Day signals the start of summer. It is a three day weekend that people take advantage of to go to the beach, have barbecue with relatives and friends and just enjoy the day away from the hassles of every day life. It is a day of parades and fun for children and adults as well.
We should not forget though what this day truly represent. It is a day set aside for the men and women who have laid their lives in order to protect us, for which we should be indebted.
It is a day of remembrance and prayer for our love ones who have served in order for us to be free.
We cannot forget that Memorial Day is about honoring those men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for freedom.
Have a safe, happy and blessed Memorial Day!
