December 19, 2013 - Thursday Vigil

Tonight it was 37 degrees & calm instead of 19 degrees & windy!!! I faced WomanCare abortion mill, blest myself with holy water, sprinkled a bit on the ground then walked between the 3 trees under the light reading all the opening prayers, holding my pro-life sign toward traffic.  I said/sang the Holy Rosary for all involved in abortion in any way, especially for those babies scheduled to be killed tomorrow  morning ~ that there mom's would change their minds & give their babies life. I read a brief Joyful Mystery before each Hail Mary. Then sang the Chaplet of Divine Mercy for the conversion of all abortion doctors. Closed with the Pledge of Allegiance. Two of the young men who work at the market drove by, smiled & waved. Then one of the young women who works at Lovely Nails came out & we wished each other a Merry Christmas. Heard happy honks throughout my prayer hour this evening ~ no negatives.  It is hard to believe that 2013 is almost over, wow!!! WISHING YOU ALL A BLESSED CHRISTMAS!!!  (Jenny)

 

December 12, 2013 - Thursday Vigil

Dressed in many layers (19 degrees tonight & a bit windy), I faced WomanCare abortion mill, blest myself with holy water, sprinkled a bit on the ground & opened up with The Prayer for the Helpless Unborn for those babies scheduled to be killed in the morning ~ that there mom's would realize that they just cannot do this to their little ones. Lord, help them do what is right for their babies!!! For all PW's in our world who are praying on site in the cold like myself, I offered up the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel.  I held my pro-life sign & my Rosary & walked back & forth under the three trees starting the Holy Rosary for all involved in abortion in any way meditating on the Luminous Mysteries. 

Maribeth arrived ~ yeah!!! She took over leading the Rosary giving a brief meditation before each decade.  For the conversion of abortion doctors, we then sang the Chaplet of Divine Mercy.  We had a little time left so we sang Christmas songs then ended the hour looking at our beautiful flag on the other side of the street & said the Pledge of Allegiance.  We heard happy honks through the prayer hour & a drive by screamer at the very start, but all I heard was the word "abortion" yelled, so I'm not sure exactly what that young woman had yelled but I asked our Blessed Mother to give her a hug & pray with me for the healing of the hurt that would cause her to yell out like that. Maribeth & I were really!!! cold ~ but happy to offer up that hour of a little discomfort for the end of abortion. We must!!! be out there to remind folks to continue to pray for the end of this evil in our neighborhoods & hearing the happy honks lets us know that there are lots of pro-life folks driving by & seeing us two Prayer Warriors praying to save babies ~ to be the voice for the voiceless.  (Jenny)

December 5, 2013 - Thursday Vigil

chilly & windy this evening but I dressed in many layers so only my fingers & toes were a teensy bit cold but no problem.  I blest myself with holy water & sprinkled a bit on the ground & opened up with The Prayer for the Helpless Unborn & for all PW's in our world who pray on site at these killing mills, I said the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel.  I held my pro-life sign toward traffic & walked back & forth under the three trees near the light & said/sang the Holy Rosary meditating on the Luminous Mysteries then the Chaplet of Divine Mercy for the conversion of abortion doctors. A young woman with a little one in the back seat stopped he car & said "God bless you."  I told her I take an hour break from work each Thursday night to pray especially for those babies who are scheduled to be killed on Friday morning, that their moms will have a change of heart & will give birth to their little ones.  She said "that's great, I'll pray for that too."  I said "excellent, thank you, God bless you." Wow!!! what a beautiful way God let me know that He definitely wants me out there on Thursday nights. Man, His message to me through that young woman was so clear :o)  I also heard a few happy honks now & then ~ no negatives. I closed my prayer hour with the Pledge of Allegiance & was so happy :o) to warm up my toes & fingers on the way home but I'm happy to offer up that teensy pain to God for the end of abortion. Like I tell Tom, if I'm out there with my sign & Rosary in peaceful prayer, it keeps reminding folks that unborn babies are still!!! being killed at that evil place & more & more folks need to pray for this to end.  (Jenny)

November 28, 2013 - Thursday Vigil -- HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Blessings to all on this glorious day of Thanksgiving!

It was 26 degrees out there this evening & I'm soooo glad I listened to Tom & wore long underwear. I was nice & warm in my layers.  I blest myself with holy water & sprinkled a bit on the ground & stood under the street light so I could read all my opening prayers as I held my pro-life sign toward traffic.  Then I walked back & forth under the three trees near the light & said/sang the Holy Rosary meditating on the Joyful Mysteries then the Chaplet of Divine Mercy for the conversion of the abortion doctors. As always, I prayed especially that those who have appointments to kill their babies on Friday morning, praying that will have a change of heart & will give birth to their little ones & if needed ask help from the pro-lifers who pray there on Friday mornings.  I just makes my sick to my stomach thinking of little babies in pieces tossed into that red bucket up there. Lord, help our sinful world!!! I closed my prayer time with the Pledge of Allegiance. It was such a peaceful hour this evening & it was so great to warm up my toes & fingers on the way home but that is something I'm happy to offer up to God for the end of abortion. Like I tell Tom, if I'm out there with my sign & Rosary in peaceful prayer, it keeps reminding folks that unborn babies are still!!! being killed at WomanCare & we must pray that it stops soon.  (Jenny)
