Ron and I went to the abortion clinic again Sunday evening. We got there just in time to join in praying the Rosary.We met several really sweet people, including a young man from Fredericksburg who is discerning the priesthood.
We had been there for about half an hour when a van pulled into the parking lot across the street. A beautiful family got out of the van and joined us on the sidewalk in front of the abortion clinic. The father told us that he and his wife had met while picketing an abortion clinic. Now they have seven beautiful daughters and one adorable two year old son. The mother was wearing the newest little one in a pouch, a precious 3 month old daughter. :o) They were members of an evangelical Presbyterian church and had driven 50 miles to be there. What a pro-life message that family gave to everyone who passed by!
I had my camera in the car, and asked permission to take a picture. This was taken from across the street when no cars were in the way. It's a very busy street. Lots of people driving by see the vigil and the signs. I pray that the sight touches the hearts of pro-choice people and causes them to change their minds. Please pray for an end to abortion.

Good for you! I really need to do more, a lot more, to support the pro-life message.
Our parish willthe PP on E. Southcross tonight. I'm thinking about going. Every month they pick a different PP around town, this one is probably the closest to my house.
Did you know ther is a PP right across the street from the Catholic Charities HQ up by SAC? How ironic.
K, I didn't know there was a PP across from Catholic Charities. :o( I've heard from some of the pro-life people we've met about some of the different places they go, especially on the days when they know abortions will take place. They never give up. A man walked by the last time we were at the vigil and said, "We tried this in the 70s and it didn't work." Father replied to him, "Well, we will keep trying!"
My thought is even if praying only saves one little baby, it is worth doing. Thanks so much Kalona for praying outside the centre.
