October 13 1917

The last of the apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary to the three children at Fatima.

Our Lady appeared in company of St. Joseph and infant Jesus. This is one major reason we incude prayer to St. Joseph in our October Rosary Devotion.

As early as July 1917, the Blessed Virgin Mary had promised a miracle for the last of her apparitions on 13th October, so that all would believe. What happened then became known as “Miracle of the Sun”.

A crowd believed to number approximately 70,000, including newspaper reporters and photographers, gathered at the Cova da Iria. The incessant rain had finally ceased and a thin layer of clouds cloaked the silver disc of the sun.

The Protestant Who Would Pray The Rosary (A true story)

The Miracle: When St. Padre Pio Prayed For Pope John Paul’s Intention
[url]
http://www.francismary.org/the-miracle-when-st-padre-pio-prayed-for-pope-john-pauls-intention/[/url]

A little six-year-old Protestant boy had often heard his Catholic companions reciting the prayer “Hail Mary.” He liked it so much that he copied it, memorized it and would recite it every day. “Look, Mommy, what a beautiful prayer,” he said to his mother one day.



“Never again say it,” answered the mother. “It is a superstitious prayer of Catholics who adore idols and think Mary a goddess. After all, she is a woman like any other. Come on, take this Bible and read it. It contains everything that we are bound to do and have to do.” From that day on the little boy discontinued his daily “Hail Mary” and gave himself more time to reading the Bible instead.

One day, while reading the Gospel, he came across the passage about the Annunciation of the Angel to Our Lady. Full of joy, the little boy ran to his mother and said: “Mommy, I have found the ‘Hail Mary’ in the Bible which says: ‘Hail full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou amongst women.’ Why do you call it a superstitious prayer?”


On another occasion he found that beautiful Salutation of St. Elizabeth to the Virgin Mary and the wonderful canticle MAGNIFICAT in which Mary foretold that “the generations would call her blessed.”

The month of October is here, a month dedicated in a special way to the Blessed Virgin Mary and to praying the rosary.

I introduce you to our *October* *Rosary* *Challenge*.

Can you offer Our Lady 5 decades of the rosary daily this October?

Will you offer Our Lady 20 decades of the rosary daily this October?

How many decades of the rosary will you offer to Our Lady daily this October?

This Rosary Challenge is that you decide to pray the Rosary more than you used to during the coming month of October.

Suppose you did not pray the Rosary daily before, you can now decide to pray a minimum of 5 decades daily.

Suppose you used to pray 5 decades daily before, you can now decide to pray a minimum 20 decades daily or 40 decades or 100decades.

It's all about you deciding on the number of decades you have to say daily this October.

It's a challenge so you go for a number that seems a little difficult and push yourself a little and with grace from Our Lady.....you will overcome the challenge.

Take this Rosary Challenge and see the Power of God at work in your life.

The 15 Promises Of The Blessed Virgin Mary To Catholics Who Devoutly Pray The Rosary Daily


Our Lady revealed to St. Dominic and Blessed Alan de la Roche these 15 promises or benefits for those who devoutly pray the Rosary daily.

These promises are different to the rosary indulgences.



1) To all those who shall recite my Rosary devoutly, I promise my special protection and very great graces.

2) Those who shall persevere in the recitation of my Rosary shall receive some signal grace.

3) The Rosary shall be a very powerful armor against hell; it will destroy vice, deliver from sin, and dispel heresy.


4) The Rosary will make virtue and good works flourish, and will obtain for souls the most abundant divine mercies; it will substitute in hearts love of God for love of the world, and will lift them to the desire of heavenly and eternal things. How many souls shall sanctify themselves by this means!

5) Those who trust themselves to me through the Rosary, shall not perish.

6) Those who shall recite my Rosary devoutly, meditating on its mysteries, shall not be overwhelmed by misfortune. The sinner shall be converted; the just shall grow in grace and become worthy of eternal life.

7) Those truly devoted to my Rosary shall not die without the Sacraments of the Church.

Those who recite my Rosary shall find during their life and at their death the light of God, the fullness of His graces, and shall share in the merits of the blessed.

9) I shall deliver very promptly from purgatory the souls devoted to my Rosary.

10) The true children of my Rosary shall enjoy great glory in heaven.

11) What you ask through my Rosary, you shall obtain.

12) Those who propagate my Rosary shall be aided by me in all their necessities.

13) I have obtained from my Son that all the members of the Rosary Confraternity shall have for their brethren the saints of heaven during their life and at the hour of death.

14) Those who recite my Rosary faithfully are all my beloved children, the brothers and sisters of Jesus Christ.

15) Devotion to my Rosary is a great sign of predestination.

Thanks, but the point is that my site is temporary unavailable. I have blocked the ips like my host adviced me and am waiting for them to reinstate my site. Thanks though

hostkobo:


Hi there,

do you mind if I help you take a look at your website.

I can see you are on iPage. I have several customer sites on iPage and Ive been able to resolve some issues.

Hit me up on whatsapp - in my signature.

regards
HK

Thanks for your suggestions, I checked out the ip addresses and they come from US, UK, UAE but the point is that one ip has no reason to make requests thousands of times in one day if I am correct. So I blocked all the IPs involved if only my host will reinstate my site for now.

I know it's possible for a hacker to use different IPs so all these hits could be coming from same place but with different ip. I am not an expert in this area but then I am going with cloudfare.

I don't know if it's still necessary to change my host if I have to go with cloudfare

Bincon:
I would advise you try the following.

1. Lookup those ip address to confirm if they are genuine.

2. If they are not, blacklist them. If they are. Leave the ips but try installing a WordPress security plugin ( I won't recommend any). Reason I said so is because at times WordPress website do receive visits that aren't geniue but the are always targeting selected url or links on your website.

3. Am not here to soil any Web hosting coy but next time watch before you use any AIG coy. Ipage own by AIG. Besides Ipage isn't good in terms of traffic management.

4. Switch to Another Web hosting coy. It might be hard but trust me. I prepare WordPress over blogger any time anyway. Most big companies and firms you see make use of WordPress.

I think thats all. If there's any. I would add later.

Yeah thanks, I googled and found their website and read it up. They sound cool and I want to subscribe for their free version first.

With what cloudfare has promised to deliver, will there be any need to change my host as some people suggest?

donkelly2:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content_delivery_network will tell you all you need to know. Cloudflare offer a free plan (that's why I recommend you start with them).

Thanks @donkelly2 for your advice, I will appreciate if you shed more light on this cdn. Do you have any of the service to recomend?

donkelly2:
Hello FMary
I think you should wait a little with WordPress.

My suggestion is to get a cdn (cloudflare can serve for the main time).

Also try change host (I think ipage is EIG company) to a more server that offer standard server security.

Yesterday I got this email from my host.

I currently average 2,000 daily views on my blog www.francismary.org so I believe that the traffic is not genuine(if the numbers beside the ip addresses are number of hits from an ip), my blog has been down for over 15 hours and it's not funny. I have blocked all those ip addresses like 10 hours ago and my blog is not yet up.

I know there are advantages of using WordPress but with blogger I would not be having issues like this I believe. I have a custom Doman name and I can easily switch to blogger but I don't know if it's the best for me.

Please advice.

How To Setup A Blogger Custom Domain For Your Blog

How To Setup A Blogger Custom Domain Name For Your Blogger Blog

In this post I am continuing my blogger blog tutorial series to help bloggers who use the Google blogger platform solve all kinds of issues they might encounter on .In many scenarios, the question is always; how do I use a custom domain name for my blog? how to transfer domain to blogger? how to add my domain to blogger? etc.. So in this post, I will be showing you how to simply setup a blogger custom domain name for your blogger blog. That is, changing from www.xyz..com to www.xyz.com .You can see that the latter looks more professional and brands your blog. It gives your blog that unique ID and branding it needs.

I normally charge a small fee to help bloggers setup a blogger custom domain name on their blogger blog and I have done this for lots of bloggers. However I have decided to write this post in other to give any blogger who wants to setup a blogger custom domain name for their blog a clear and simply step-by-step guild on how to go about it.

You can setup a blogger custom domain name for your blog by creating two new CNames and four A records in your DNS with the two CNames provided in your blogger dashboard and this four Google IPs 216.239.32.21, 216.239.34.21, 216.239.36.21, 216.239.38.21
. However, before you do that, I think you should have some little understanding of what DNS means and how it works.

What is DNS

DNS simply means domain name system. The DNS controls your domain name's website and email settings. Its like the phone book record of your domain name settings which contains the server your domain name is domiciled in.
DNS contains a few different type of settings you can setup for your domain. This include;


Name Server: The name server point your domain name to a web host company, from where your domain name website files loads. This is usually hosted by the company you registered the domain name with, however you can also point to another web host name servers.
A Record: The A record is used to point a domain name to a specified IP address which controls how the domain loads when visited.
CName: CName means canonical name and is used to point a domain name to a specified domain name where visitors to your site can find your site contents. CName can be either a subdomain or a main domain.
MX Records: MX records is used to point your domain name email to the host provider of your email.
Zone File: The zone file stores all the DNS settings of your domain name.
How To Setup A Blogger Custom Domain Name

You can setup a blogger custom name for your blog by following the four simple steps below;

Step #1 - Visit your blogger dashboard, under settings>>basics, click on (setup a third-party URL for your blog).

Step #2 - Enter your already registered domain name with the www before the domain name in the space provided. Click on the save button and upon clicking on the button you should get an error message which provides you with two CNames . The first CName is same for every blogger blog while the second one is unique to your blog. Copy the two CName and save it somewhere, you will need it letter.

Step #3

Head over to your domain name DNS control panel. How to manage the DNS settings of your domain name can be different among web hosts. In this post I will be using the popular cPanel to edit my DNS settings and create the new CNames and the A records. Login to your cPanel, under domains, click on Advance DNS zone editor. Select the domain name you want to edit. In the CName section enter the name as www and CName as ghs.google.com . Do same thing for the second CName we copied and saved earlier on. Now that you are done with the CName, you will need to create four different A records so that when someone mistakenly forgets to add the www before your domain, they don't get an error. Create A records for this IPs 216.239.32.21, 216.239.34.21, 216.239.36.21, 216.239.38.21 one after the other and save it. In the name box enter your domain name without the www e.g xyz.com , substituting xyz with your domain, enter the IP address in the next box and save it. Do same thing for the other three IPs

Step #4 - Finally, brushing it up, visit your blogger dashboard >> settings>>basics and click on the (setup third-party URL for your blog) , enter your domain name with the www before the domain name and click on save. Your www.xyz..com should now be redirected to www.xyz.com when someone visits your blog.

Final Touches

One last thing you should do is to make sure that when a visitor to your blog mistakenly omits the www before entering your domain name in his/her browser that it redirects to www.xyz.com . To do this simply click on the edit button from the settings>>basic dashboard and tick the box where it says redirect (xyz.com to www.xyz.com)

Troubleshooting

Normally it can take about 24-48hrs for your domain transferred to Google to fully propagate, within this period the transferred domain might not yet be active on your blog. If for some reason the blogger custom domain fails to work on your blog , then follow the below steps to troubleshoot and fix the error.


Change your blogger template as there could be a script preventing the blogger custom domain from working properly.
Check your DNS settings to be sure that all CNames and A records are correctly setup.
Clear your browsing cache
If after following the above steps and the problem persists, contact your domain host provider for further assistance.

It actually takes sometime, about 24-48 hours for your blogger custom domain name to fully propagate and function well.

How is it written again in the Bible or have you not read it before?

Faith without good works....... please remind me of the quotation

An2elect2:
For by Grace are you saved through faith and that not of yourself but it is a gift of God. Not of works so you don't boast …Eph 2:8,9.

Do catholics trust in their works for salvation? Yes with joy.

Are catholics contradicting the scriptures? o yes, with all pleasure. Who doesn't like "traditions" better?

Are catholics going to perish by biblical standards? O pls, with all sadness.

Are they saved based on "traditions"? O well, if we are talking "progressive salvation"

Was m.Theresa a catholic? yesss
She followed the catholic doctrine of salvation? yes that was all she knew.

By biblical standards, is she with Jesus? obviously No

But by catholic "traditions"? Yea she is in paradise seated at the right hand side of the "blessed virgin Mary" who still has baby "jesus" in her arm.

Luckylife:
We will be happy and bless to have our beloved Mother Teresa as a SAINT . May she intercede for the living Amen .

Amen.
