June 20, 2013 - Thursday Vigil

I faced WomanCare abortion mill, blest myself with holy water & sprinkled a bit on the ground & started out with the opening prayers. Maribeth arrived...yeah!!!  We began our walk along the grass area & after a little bit, two more PW's arrived, Julie & Clare from St. Therese of Lesieux Church...yeah!!! We took turns leading the Holy Rosary reading a brief Joyful Mystery before each Hail Mary & after a little bit another PW arrived, Matthew... yeah!!! Clare added to our pro-life prayer intentions blessings on the No Taxes For Abortion petition drives going on all over which they planned to attend after the prayer vigil.

When we finished the Holy Rosary, Matthew led the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, offering it up especially for the conversion of all abortion doctors & their staffs.  Julie & Clare had to leave a bit early to attend the Petition Drive @ Faith Lutheran Church in Troy with hopes that many pro-lifers are getting the word out that we must remember, abortion is NOT healthcare... most certainly not for the baby & it wounds the parents a well as we have heard all these years from so very many postabortive men & women who tell the sad stories. But with light in their eyes, they also tell us that our God is such a healing God for these folks humbly ask Him to forgive their sin of abortion & the healing that they tell us about is so awesome.

Maribeth, Matthew & I closed with the Pledge of Allegiance looking at our beautiful American flag. Lord, help our land heal from our many, many sins. Amen!!!

Our pro-life signs continue to spread the word that this evil must stop & we experienced many positives again, waves, smiles, happy honks, thumbs up out of one driver's moon roof... that made us laugh & nods of approval & smiles from those walking past our little group of PW's really makes you humble. As always, we prayed for the couple of negatives we received that their hurting hearts will feel better soon.  

Please join us out there in peaceful prayer when you are able... it is such a great blessing!!!  (Jenny)
