Divine Mercy Novena 2012

Starting on Good Friday, I am joining more than 10,000 Catholics to pray a Divine Mercy Novena!

I’m actually trying to help this online prayer community (PrayMoreNovenas.com) to get 20,000 people praying this novena for God’s Mercy. We all need Mercy, right?

You can sign up for handy email reminders to get the the novena prayers here: http://www.praymorenovenas.com/divine-mercy-novena

After you sign up, maybe you can help spread the word as well. God’s Mercy is abundant and overflowing, let’s share it!

Calendar Date and Its Numerical Value.

We know that one year has 365 days, right? and a leap year has 366 days, right?  Have you ever ponder about your birthday and its associated numerical value.  For example, October 1 falls on day 274 of the regular calendar year and on day 275 of the leap year.  It is very useful for feng shui and astrological calculation.  The top chart is for the regular year and the bottom chart is for the leap year.  Try to use the chart for any date of the year and see if it could be used to enhanced your personal luck calculation.  If your birthday falls on April 1, you might want to personalize your phone number with lots of 9191

Regular Year.

Leap Year

Julian Calendar Convert to Gregorian Calendar.    

( for any number in Julian Calendar, add 13 days, then you will get the Gregorian calendar).

For example December 12 (Our Lady of Guadalupe Feast) Julian Calendar is December 25 ( Gregorian Calendar).

For example December 25 (Julian Calendar) is January 7 ( Gregorian Calendar).

For example January 7 ( Julian Calendar) is January 20 ( Gregorian Calendar).

Jan 1 (Julian) = Jan 14 (gregorian) = Jan 27 = Feb 9 = Feb 22 = Mar 7 = Mar 20 = Apr 2 = Apr 15 = Apr 28 = May 11 = May 24 = Jun 6 = Jun 19 = Jul 2

Female Spiritual Retreat

Hey, just to let you single women know that during the month of April there will be a special retreat going on where you can become more drowned into the light of Christianity.  Ever wonder how a Christian nun behaves, or what she does in her daily life, check out with the Sister of Saint Joseph, Toronto.  They are offering a special retreat for single women on April 27 & 29 and also on May 25 & 27.  If you are interested please call 416.927.0720, or email dschweitzer@csj-to.ca, for further questions.

Do you also know that there are differences between a nun and a sister?
They both take vows of chastity, poverty, and obedience.  But a nun, has a another vow which is, a vow of enclosure (which means they live in a monastery, and pray for the world.  They are isolated from society).  A sister can be a married person, and have kids.  They spend more time caring for the society and preaching gospel to the community.

So, if you are already married and have kid or planning to have a family, please don't shy away from the "Christian Sisterhood".  You can still contribute to the religious life and to the community at the same time. Please speak with your church or contact the number listed above.

My Mother

My mother and her classmates in Bukit Bintang Convent Girl's School.  (Bukit Bintang is a malaysian word for "Hill' 'Star').  Her British Missionary teacher is Ms. Isabelle Albert.

My mother's favourite subject with Ms. Albert is Bible Missionary Subject.

She also enjoys singing Gospels.

My mother and her classmates in her Pharmacy Dispensary College taught in English.

Astronomy

Astronomy and Religion

 Earth + planets (pluto, mercury etc) surrounding  one star (sun)-------> solar system.

 millions of stars-------> galaxy (ours is milky way galaxy).  One star (ours sun) can have a few planets.

One mono galaxy combine with another mono galaxy leads to ------> binary galaxy.
One mono galaxy combine with 2 mono galaxy leads to------->tertiary galaxy.

There is a Puzzle for you to solve at the bottom of the page. Please read to the bottom and let me know about your feedback.

The Earth as viewed by Satellite in the atmosphere.  At close view, you can see the trees, mountains, oceans and patches of clouds.   At the top of the picture, you can see distant stars in the milky way galaxy.

The Earth and its moon.  Notice the dust (interplanetary dust) surrounding our planet.   Before earth was formed million of years ago, these dusts were floating in space until a strong nuclear fusion occured generating gravity that binds these dusts into a round ball known as planet.  

The solar system consists of the sun (star) and all the orbiting planets from Mercury to Pluto.

1 Solar System = 1 Star (Sun) + all orbiting planets.

Not just one round planet was formed, but many planets (including asteroids, comets etc) were formed by the same method mentioned above.  Because the sun (star) has a much larger gravity, all the planets orbit around the sun.  99% of the weight of the solar system is located in the sun and the other 1% comes from all the planets from mercury to pluto.

1 Galaxy ( Milky Way Galaxy) = billions of solar system.

1 solar system = 1 star (sun) + all its orbiting planets.

How many stars are there in one galaxy?  (billion of stars)?

In our solar system, 1 sun (star) has 9 orbiting planets.  In our galaxy, billions of stars must have thousands of billions of planets)?

Could there be aliens in these multitudes of planets?

Why can't we see these aliens?

The picture of our milky way spiral galaxy.  Notice how many tiny specks of bright light.  Each speck represents a sun (star).  Each speck of sun has several orbiting planets.  Imagine how many planets in our milky way galaxy?

There is three large galaxies in the picture.  Each galaxy has as many stars (suns) and planets as our very own milky way galaxy.

Just how many galaxies are there in the universe?

If you are still pondering how many galaxies there are in the universe, look at the specks of bright light.

can you count them? Maybe? 

Imagine how many stars+planets per light or galaxy.

Imagine how many planets in this picture.

If you think that you can outsmart the top picture, try this one.  When each tiny dot represents one galaxy, how many galaxies can you count? 

If you still think that you can count the number of specks of light in the top picture, try to imagine how big our universe is??

How big is our universe?

What you see in the top picture is only a tiny part of the universe. ( the lens area of a powerful telescope.)

Just how further deep can you preceive? 

Just what is the maximum height, maximum width of the universe?

Does it have a shape?  An egg shape? a square shape?

Ever wonder what the dark matters between galaxies are?  Are they galactic oceans? Does the galaxies represent islands?  

These galactic islands float on space.  You can imagine the density of the spacious dark matter, and each galaxy suspends in them according to their gravity.

How heavy is an average human?  How many humans are on earth?  Why is earth suspended on space? Why is earth not falling down to the bottom of the 'bottomless-ever-expanding universe'? 

Why spaceman floats on space? (one tiny human is not as heavy as earth)

Modern astronomy defines universe as no boundary and expanding.
