Julie S from St. Therese of Lisieux Church & Regina F from St. Martin de Porres Church joined me this evening. We held "Pray to End Abortion" signs & walked up & down the grass area. We took turns leading the Holy Rosary reading a brief Luminous Mystery meditation before each Hail Mary. Happy honks of approval, thumbs up, waves for the most part & one negative - a young woman rode her bike by us while we were talking to a post-abortive lady & her comment to us was, "why don't you go feed hungry children." I guess she isn't bothered that children are being torn apart in the wombs of their mothers in this evil place called WomanCare. The post-abortive woman we were talking yelled at her to get Jesus in her life & repent. wow!!! I didn't expect that. We prayer warriors don't yell at those who have negative remarks toward us but when this post-abortive lady checks out our website, she will see how we act out here, in peaceful prayer. Regina explained to her what 40 Days for Life was all about & I gave her a Baby Jesus prayer card. She plans to start praying here. She said was forced to have two abortions & almost a third but "something, Jesus" stopped her & her son Anthony was born. She said all us Christians have to be united against abortion. What a great blessing it was to speak with her. God has healed her beautifully.
Julie had to leave so Regina & I faced traffic by the abortion mill & she read from our pro-life booklet, the Intention, Scripture, Reflection & Prayer for today - Day 16 & the Prayer of Parents & a Pro-Life Prayer. We said the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag and sang America the Beautiful. It was windy again this evening but not as cold as last night but in Michigan we all know that winter is here & we need to dress in layers when we are out here praying in the winter weather. (Jenny)
