SPRING 2014 40 DAYS FOR LIFE: Day 9 - March 13

6:00 p.m. Prayer Vigil
As I got out of my car, I saw Richard...yeah!!! We shared holy water, faced WomanCare abortion mill & said The Prayer for the Helpless Unborn. It was 26 & a bit breezy so we decided to begin walking to keep warm. Richard led the Holy Rosary with a brief Luminous Mystery before each decade for the intentions he offered up before we started to pray. 

A young man & his mother drove over to us to chat a bit. He is a student at OCC & is writing a paper against abortion & wanted info about what were were doing out there so I gave him a our flyer & Richard gave him the info of the 40+ Right to Life folks at OCC, so he will be able to talk to them as well as checking out our website. It is always such a beautiful blessing for us to see how parents raised such a pro-life sons & daughters!!! :o) 

We continued our Rosary & Maribeth arrived...yeah!!! We heard a drive-by screamer "pro-choice, pro-choice, pro-choice." As we have said before, they don't stop to chat because they don't want to hear the truth about what we PW's are doing out there...they just want to scream their views. We said a prayer for her immediately. The simple fact is if they are pro-choice, they are pro killing innocent babies in the womb. My heart hurts that folks are ok with this. How did we get to this?!?!? Lord, help us!!!

As Richard was leading the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, two young men stopped to ask "are you pro-abortion?" Maribeth said "no, we are praying to END abortion." I showed them my sign so they could see it better "Pray to End Abortion."  They said "oh, that's good & gave us big smiles." Glad they took the time to talk to us so they could be reassured that we are AGAINST!!! killing babies.

Mike arrived...yeah!!! We finished the Chaplet, Richard read the Prayer for the Conversion of Abortionists & their Staffs, then we faced that beautiful American flag & said the Pledge of Allegiance to close our prayer hour.    (Jenny)

The snow piles are getting a little high -- check out the pics!  Can you see Mike?
