POLAND. Hundreds of thousands of Catholics pray Rosary at the borders (The Battle of Lepanto, 1571)

The prayer turned out to be more successful than anybody could possibly expected. The news given by some EU media, then requoted in other media, regarding the turnout are simply pathetic. In Poland, even the most radical leftist circles estimate the turnout for 1-2 million participants, let alone those who prayed at home.

Great Post!

WE SHALL DEFEND OUR I S L A N D

whatever the cost may be...

We shall fight on the beaches,

We shall fight on sea

Różaniec do granic

We shall fight in park lanes,

We shall fight in forests,

We shall fight on the highest peaks,

We shall fight in mountains,

Różaniec nad Morskim Okiem /Grzegorz Momot /PAP

We shall fight in the streets and squares,

AND GOD ANSWERED HIS PEOPLE FROM HEAVEN :

And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you;

And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth.

And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.

And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:

I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.

And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:

And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.

And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.

And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.

The Pope wont like this at all. Poland forever.

Beautiful,Our Lady of the Rosary Pray for us.

Although this initiative was overtly supported by the Polish Church, although it’s an official feast day of Our Lady of the Rosary, Pope said not a single word about it.

Most interesting.

What you said.

The Polish people are not dumb like the rest of Europe. They know what’s going on, what the mooselimbs are trying to do...

Hubby used to call his rosary his “.638 slammer.” Heh! He knew it was a weapon.

Beautiful. Thank you!

Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary, please pray for us.

Not surprised by the Popes silence on the Holiday. This Pope is a liberal. Sad considering what a great Pope John Paul was. Perhaps one day we shall see another like John Paul.

On the border of Poland with the Ukraine is the Ukrainian village of Hrushiv.

The church in this town has seen some interesting apparitions.

Two weeks before World War I (May12th 1914), a woman appeared to 24 people of the village of Hrushiv warning of the coming war.

Then on the one year anniversary of the fire and meltdown of the nuclear reactor in Chernobyl, an apparition occurred over a long period of time such that 500,000 people visited the site in the then USSR (in 1987).

Of course, the KGB forbid people from visiting the site and so did the local militia.

The KGB and militia failed miserably.

The church is walking distance from the Polish border (probably less than 2000 feet -- best guess).

It would interesting if someone would set up pilgrimages to both Our Lady of Jasna Gora Czestochowa in Poland and to Hrushiv in the Ukraine. The pilgrimage could also stop somewhere else in Poland for a historical tour.

Not RC but I pray with these folks to draw Europe (and Canada, and the US, and Australia, etc.) back to Christianity.

Beautiful. God bless Poland.

God bless Poland and God bless all the Polish people.

112 years would pass after the Battle of Lepanto, and in 1683, the Polish cavalry would break the siege of Vienna and send the Turks back to the Middle East for 300 years.

The Austrian bakers made a crescent shaped pastry during the siege to mock the Muslim battle symbol.

We know them as croissants(”crescents”).

Croissants - plural in Polish: “Rogale”/ro’ghaleh”/ or “rogaliki” in sweettalk. :)

Thanks—learned something new.

Wow. Thank you for posting this.
