After blessing myself with holy water & sprinkling a bit on the
ground I placed my lit Lady of Guadalupe candle on the sidewalk, faced
WomanCare abortion mill & began the opening prayers with my Pray To
End Abortion sign hanging from my arm facing traffic. Happy honks right
away. Folks know that we are praying for the end of this evil &
let us know they are happy we are doing so. Maribeth arrived, yeah!!!
We continued the opening prayers as we stared walking to the traffic
light to keep warm & Christine joined us, yeah!!! She took over
leading all the opening prayers then the Rosary with a brief Glorious
Mystery before each Hail Mary. A few more happy honks were heard & a
negative. A young man yelled "abortion should be legal." I shook my
head & said "no, no, no" as the car drove away. The "drive-by
yellers" don't give us much time to answer but I'm sure he got my
message. We right away said a prayer for conversion of his hardened
heart. We ended our prayer hour with Christine leading the Chaplet of
Divine Mercy. All was offered up for those involved in abortion in any
way. It was a bit cold, but we all dress in layers, so we are ready for
it. Just your fingers & toes get a bit cold after an hour but an
hour is not long when you are walking & praying for the unborn who
are in such danger nowadays.
I went to get my carry out from My Pizza Place & a man was
sitting on the bench & asked for some $ for food. I said just a
minute & went in to get my order & told the owner of the pizza
place about the hungry man & he had him come in to warm up &
gave him a piece of pizza & pop. I said good night & God bless
you to both of them & they answered me back the same. I don't give $
to strangers cuz if they are druggies I don't want to pay for their
drugs but I have no problem asking for a bit of food for them & it
worked out well Thursday night. The pizza place owner is a really nice
man & the hungry stranger seemed very nice also & was
really appreciative of the meal in a nice warm place, so thank you Lord
for working that out so nicely.
(Jenny truly is the hands and feet of Jesus!!! ...and her presence there helped out another child of God. Thank you Jenny for your example.)
