September 30, 2013 -- DAY SIX - FALL 2013 40 DAYS FOR LIFE


Beautiful evening for prayer tonight AND the abortion mill was closed.  I faced WomanCare abortion mill, blest myself with holy water, sprinkled a bit on the ground around me & began the opening prayers for all involved in abortion in any way.  A young lady pulled in & drove right next to me, read my "Pray to End Abortion" sign, gave me the thumbs up & said "Thank You."   That was so nice of her to take time to stop by with her encouragement!!!  
Then Maribeth arrived...yeah!!! She took over reading the opening prayers & leading the Holy Rosary reading a brief Sorrowful Mystery before each Hail Mary.  Paul arrived to pray for a bit a little ways from where Maribeth & I were praying.  After a while, we said our good–byes, as he had to leave. So great that folks just stop by to "pray a bit" for the precious, helpless unborn!!!  We heard a couple of drive-by screamers & prayed for their hardened hearts.  (The two young men who were on ladders painting the building looked at the drive-by screamers like there were crazy.) Hopefully, when the men & women who scream at us grow up, they will think, geeezzzzz, what a dumb thing that was to scream at the peaceful folks praying at that abortion mill.  All we can do is pray that they will see God's light & truth.  
Maribeth then led the Chaplet of Divine Mercy by reading Saint Faustina's meditations on The Passion & we offered this up especially for the conversion of abortion doctors.  We heard happy honks & more folks drove by with smiles & nods of approval.  Some women just had blank looks on their face as they drove by. We felt very sad for them because they most likely are hurting in some way from abortion.  We closed our prayer vigil as always looking at that beautiful American flag & said the Pledge of Allegiance.  We hugged good-bye & both started for home.  (Jenny)
