  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Hi,

I just recently started my renewal in Christianity and the Catholic faith. I am of Spanish (Castilian) decent and my parents and grandparents were "holy rollers". My parents never did the rosary, but my grandparents did it every day. I can still remember as a chlld when they would stay with us. I received my rosary today and I decided to give it a shot. I bought the little book, "Pray the Rosary" and a Rosary Prayer Card by KeepGodinLife. The prayer card states to say the Fatima prayer after Glory Be to the Father. The booklet leaves it out and says only to say the Glory Be. I'm planning on getting my rosar

The Fatima prayer is this:

"Oh my Jesus,
forgive us our sins,
save us from the fires of Hell,
and lead all souls to Heaven,
especially those most in need of Thy mercy

Amen."

The Fatima prayer is (almost) always said after the Glory Be. I HIGHLY recommend it!

God bless

Hi,

I just recently started my renewal in Christianity and the Catholic faith.

Welcome back! You might be interested in the Rosary in a Year podcast. You can start from the beginning, of course, but days 8 thru 28 are about the prayers of the Rosary with day 22 specifically about the Fatima prayer.
