We believe that we survived because we were living the message of Fatima. We lived and prayed the Rosary in that home. (Fr. Schiffer)

How to survive a nuclear blast?  Pray the Rosary.

From Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubert_Schiffer
Father Hubert Schiffer, born in Germany in 1915, was one of eight Jesuits who survived the bomb dropped on Hiroshima. He was only eight blocks away from ground zero when the explosion occurred. Some Catholics believe the survival of the priests to have been a miracle. Skeptics counter that there were non-Catholic survivors even closer to the epicenter of the blast, such as Eizo Nomura (100 m away) and Akiko Takakura (150 m away), and numerous survivors within a 1 km radius.

According to the account of Jesuit priest Fr. John Seimes, who had been on the outskirts of the city:

They were in their rooms at the Parish House—it was a quarter after eight, exactly the time when we had heard the explosion in Nagatsuke—when came the intense light and immediately thereafter the sound of breaking windows, walls and furniture. They were showered with glass splinters and fragments of wreckage. Father Schiffer was buried beneath a portion of a wall and suffered a severe head injury. The Father Superior received most of the splinters in his back and lower extremity from which he bled copiously. Everything was thrown about in the rooms themselves, but the wooden framework of the house remained intact. Another account adds that he had just finished saying Mass, and had gone to eat breakfast when the bomb hit:

Suddenly, a terrific explosion filled the air with one bursting thunderstroke. An invisible force lifted me from the chair, hurled me through the air, shook me, battered me, whirled me round and round like a leaf in a gust of autumn wind. He looked around, and there were no buildings left except for the church house.

It is frequently claimed that everyone else within a radius of roughly 1.5 kilometres was killed instantly, and many of those outside of this range died of radiation within days. In contrast, the only physical harm to Fr. Shiffer was that he could feel a few pieces of glass in the back of his neck. It's also said that after the surrender of Japan, the American army doctors explained to him that his body would begin to deteriorate because of the radiation; yet to the doctors' amazement, Fr. Schiffer's body appeared to contain no elevated radiation or ill-effects from the bomb.  In fact, he lived for another 33 years in good health, and was present at the Eucharistic Congress held in Philadelphia in 1976. At that time, all eight members of the Jesuit community from Hiroshima were still alive.

The surprising survival of the Jesuits in Hiroshima is similar to that reported in Nagasaki, where a Fransican Friary built by St. Maximillian Kolbe also went unaffected. Since the bombs were dropped, the priests have been examined over 200 times by scientists.Each time the priests repeated the same explanation for their survival:

We believe that we survived because we were living the message of Fatima. We lived and prayed the rosary in that home.

How to stop Communism?  Pray the Rosary.
They have infiltrated our nation, our government, our armed forces and even our churches ...(Dona Amelia Bastos)


In the November, 1964, issue of the Reader’s Digest, there was a story titled: “The Country that saved It-self.’’ That country was Brazil. The stage was all set in 1961 to take over Brazil, just like Cuba. But guess who thwarted this Communist takover? The women of Brazil with their rosaries! “Without the woman,” said one of the leaders of the counterrevolution, “we could never have halted Brazil’s plunge toward communism.”

ne night in mid-1962, Dona Amelia Bastos listened to her husband and a band of anti-Reds discuss the looming threat of Communism. “I suddenly decided,” she said, “that politics had become to important to be left entirely to the men... Moreover, who has more at stake in what’s happening to our country than we women?” She formed CAMDE (Campaign of Women for Democracy]. In Belo Horizonte 20,000 women reciting the rosary aloud broke up the leftist meeting there. In Sao Paulo, 600,000 women praying the rosary in one of the most moving demonstrations in Brazilian history, sounded the death knell of the Communist revolution. These women with rosaries in their hands or around their necks, issued a 1300 word proclamation:

This nation which God has given us, immense and marvelous as it is, is in extreme danger. We have allowed men of limitless ambition, without Christian faith or scruples, to bring our people misery, destroying our economy, disturbing our social peace, to create hate and despair.They have infiltrated our nation, our government, our armed forces and even our churches ...
Mother of God, preserve us from the fate and suffering of the martyred women of Cuba, Poland, Hungary and all other enslaved
nations!


                                                   AUSTRIA IS FREE!
The Power of Prayer
In 1946, a Franciscan priest named Petrus Pavlicek made a pilgrimmage to Mariazell, Austria's man Marian shrine.  There, he prayed that Austria might be freed from the Communists.  As he knelt in prayer, he heard a voice in his mind.  The heavenly voice told him that if he prayed the rosary Austria would have peace.    In 1947, Fr. Pavlicek founded the Crusade of Reparation of the Holy Rosary.  Through the Crusade, Austrians joined in a round-the-clock Rosary.  They prayed for the conversion of sinners, world peace, and a free Austria.  Thousands of people joined the crusade.  Every month the number of crusaders grew.  By 1955, a half-million Austrians, more than 7 percent of the country, had pledged to pray the daily Rosary.  
Austria is Free after Ten Years of "Liberation"
    On March 24, 1955, the Soviets invited the Austrian Prime Minister, Julius Raab, to a meeting in Moscow.  Believing that Austria's future would be sealed at the meeting,  Raab spoke with Fr. Pavlicek.  "Please pray, and ask your people to pray harder than ever."  
     Though it had never done so, and never would do so again, in April, the Soviet Union announced that it would withdraw its troops from Austria.  On May 15, 1955, Austria signed a peace treaty with the Allies.  Austria was once again a self-governing nation.  By the end of October, the last Soviet soldier left Austria.  Ten years after it had been "liberated," Austria was free. 
     In Vienna, a huge crowd marched procession.  They carried rosaries and a statue of Our Lady of Fatima who had delivered Austria from the Communists.  From the balcony of the capital building, Prime Minister Raab offered a prayer of thanksgiving.  "Today, we, whose hearts are full of faith, cry out to Heaven in joyful prayer: We are free, O Mary, we thank thee!"  Every year since then, thousands of Austrians gather in Vienna to thank Our Lady for the gift of freedom granted through her intercession.~Extracted from Our Catholic Legacy World History for Young Catholics 2012
