Good Friday Rosary and Stations

Post by Mary1973 on Fri Mar 21, 2008 8:22 am

I just came home from an annual event which is held in Englewood, NJ. Englewood is home to one of the busiest abortion mills. It is also known for doing many partial birth abortions.

Pro-life advocates meet near the train station along with some Friars of Franciscan Renewal. The friars lead us in the Rosary as we march to the abortion mill. We also then say the Stations of the Cross and the Chaplet of Divine Mercy. I was pleasantly surprised that the people holding the placards of the stations are actually allowed to stand on the sidewalk right in front of the mill.

I cannot express how moving this it. As we were praying, young men and women were going into the mill. I kept thinking about the babies who were being aborted even as we prayed. It brought tears to our eyes.

This is the first year I attended although it has been going on for many years. I plan to go for as many years as necessary.

May God use such opportunities as a witness to women going into the clinic... and may they change their mind and seek life-giving options. Amen.
