- Eleanor and Mary counseled a young
woman on Tuesday at Planned Parenthood. She came out of the abortion
facility and told Eleanor, "I didn't do it!" That brings our
total to 31. Converting

when you show them peace and joy instead of anger and judgment, that will begin

- John Cronin called
yesterday to report (#28) that a young
woman from Lowell came out of Marcus Gordon's Haverhill abortion facility - she
changed her mind. John and the other counselor gave her pro-life material and a
ride home. Another baby was
saved on Tuesday at Planned Parenthood. The woman told Eleanor,
"I didn't do it." (#27)
FROM JOHN O'GORMAN: Jesuit-run Boston College
(BC), named Enda Kenny, the Irish Prime Minister (Taoiseach), as the
Commencement speaker to graduates. BC President Rev. William P. Leahy, S.J.
is to present an honorary Doctor of Laws degree to him at the ceremony at Alumni
Stadium at 10 a.m. on May 20, 2013.
BC spokesman Jack Dunn said that Enda Kenny is "promoting human rights."
BC's sister college - BC Law - had Pro-Abortion Commencement
speakers: Vicki Kennedy (Ted's widow) in '12, and 4 when John Garvey was Dean
(1999-2010).
Kenny is introducing legislation to legalize Abortion in
Ireland, NOT "promoting human rights." A "Heads of the Bill" draft -
perversely titled
Protection of Life during Pregnancy Bill 2013 - was published April 30 by
the Government (Kenny's Fine Gael party in coalition with Labour).
The Pro Life Campaign in Ireland issued a statement:
PLC says Taoiseach’s reassurances on abortion are “empty and misleading.”
“Two-panel six-doctor proposal for signing off on abortions is utter nonsense,”
says Caroline Simons... Following the Government’s publication tonight of the
Heads of the Bill on abortion,
the Pro Life Campaign has dismissed the Taoiseach’s reassurances that the law
will be restrictive. ProLifeCampaign.ie needs your help!
Enda Kenny is NOT a fit person to be the Commencement Speaker
and an Awardee at BC. Please contact the following to DEMAND that Pro-Abortion
Enda Kenny be DISINVITED.

Reacting to NBA player Jason Collins’ decision to publicly come out as gay
on Monday, ESPN analyst Chris Broussard said he wouldn’t classify a homosexual
as a “Christian” because the Bible makes it clear that it is a sin. He went on
to say that living in unrepentant sin, not just homosexuality, is
“walking in open rebellion to God.”

THU, APR 18
- A young man came out of Women's Health in Brookline
this morning to express to us his anger at his girl friend's impending abortion
- he wanted the child. But a short time later the couple left together from the
front door - after an abortion the women are sent out the back door - with the
man smiling and giving us a thumbs up. We're taking that to be a baby saved
(#23). "Thank you guys for being here. I didn't
do it." - A woman who exited Planned Parenthood on Wednesday
(#22).
THU, APR 11 - Two more babies reported saved at Planned Parenthood: one on Tuesday (#21), and a late report of one last Friday (#20).
TUE, APR 9
- John called in to report a definite saved baby in
Haverhill this morning (#19). Thanks be to God on this day after the
Feast of the Annunciation.
Pro-lifers Ruth and Paul met the couple coming out of Planned
Parenthood Saturday morning. "We didn't do it," said the man. And the
woman said she had been moved to tears in the waiting room. But her sadness
turned to joy once outside of the child-killing facility. (#18)
Why we are losing the gay "marriage"
debate - and how we can start winning
Click for LifeSiteNews.com article.
Peter Hitchens is, as anyone who reads his
columns knows, a pessimist. He believes Western civilization, especially
in Europe, is creaking rather loudly, and uses his column to amplify that
fact regularly. “I just say I’m realistic,” Hitchens tells me, “I think the
outlook for Christian civilization is currently rather bleak, and I think
that anyone who thinks otherwise is deluding himself.” He lists quickly a
number of proofs for his assertion: mass divorce resulting in untold damage
to a generation of young people, the rejection of marriage by the current
generation leading to increased dependence on the state, abortion on demand,
and morally (and even ideologically) bankrupt “conservative” politicians.

FRI, APR 5
- Baby number 17 was saved on Wednesday. A discouraged looking
couple went into Planned Parenthood but later came out and announced,
"We're keeping our baby. We don't want them to take
it." The several pro-lifers present prayed with the couple and gave
them pro-life information to follow up with them.
Also on Wednesday, Women's Health
Services in Brookline did no abortions - same as two weeks before on a
Wednesday. Like that prior week, they added extra people onto Friday morning,
with customers arriving shortly after 7:00 AM. Abortionist Delli-Bovi also
arrived early (about 7:30), using a cane for an apparently injured foot. Excellent Rush Limbaugh
monologue on Thursday on verbal engineering
and on a Colorado court ruling that bans
graphic pro-life photos:
"I proffered the theorem last week that the gay marriage
issue was lost the moment we surrendered the language. The moment we allowed
modifiers to marriage -- opposite-sex marriage, heterosexual marriage, gay
marriage -- once we allowed that, then for all intents and purposes we lost
the issue because marriage is none of those things. Marriage is one thing."

Good Friday Homily of Father Raniero
Cantalamessa, O.F.M. Cap., to
Pope Francis We have reached the
summit of the Year of Faith and its decisive moment. This is the faith that
saves, “faith that overcomes the world” (1 Jn 5:5)! Faith – the
appropriation by which we make ours the salvation worked by Christ, by which
we put on the mantle of his righteousness. On the one hand there is the
outstretched hand of God offering man His grace; on the other hand, the hand
of man reaching out to receive it through faith. The “new and everlasting
Covenant” is sealed with a handclasp between God and man.
We have the
opportunity to make, on this day, the most important decision of our lives,
one that opens wide before us the doors of eternity: to believe! To believe
that “Jesus died for our sins and rose again for our justification” (Rom
4:25)!

WED, MAR 27
- Another child was saved today (#15) after a pair of women came out of
Planned Parenthood; the customer's companion actually encouraged the pro-lifers'
ministry. Tom Hamill died Monday morning
at home, where he was recovering from hip replacement surgery. He had made
fast progress and was already walking with only a cane. The exact cause of death
is unknown, but he had a number of health issues, including diabetes and
cardiovascular problems.
He was a few weeks
from the second anniversary of his wife Mary's death.
Aside from his role as
a husband and father, he was known to most of us as a
veteran of the Culture War, having been active for many
years in politics, MCFL, and Operation Rescue.
Funeral liturgy:
10:00 AM on Thursday, March 28 at Saint Francis of
Assisi in Braintree.
Forty Days for
Life / Boston concluded its Lenten segment with a a
Palm Sunday prayer vigil at Planned Parenthood and
an evening celebration at Concannon's in Norwood.
Former Planned Parenthood employee Catherine Adair gave a
compelling testimony about her work at the abortion
mill.
The Haverhill
contingent also concluded Sunday with a vigil at
Marcus Gordon's abortion facility.
Saturday at Planned Parenthood: About 25
seminarians joined us in prayer; they split
into several small prayer groups. Besides
the throng of pray-ers - 40 Days for Life, seminarians,
regular Rosary intercessors - sidewalk counselors, like
Evelyn - stood ready to plead for
lives. And one woman apparently changed her mind!
(#14) Approaching the pro-lifers in front of the
death chamber, she started crying profusely. Then she
and her male companion turned around and went back to
their car and drove away. Circumstantial, but powerful!
WED, MAR 20
- Mary was the heroine again,
braving the elements again to be at Planned Parenthood yesterday. She was
rewarded when a young woman emerged from the facility and announced that she had decided against abortion (#13)!

FRI, MAR 15
- Rita Russo, Forty Days for Life Campaign Coordinator,
called to report some good news from yesterday
afternoon's 40 Days vigil at Planned Parenthood.
Shortly after 3:00 pm, a woman came out of the
facility and stood, apparently waiting for a ride.
She spoke with Rita and said, "I'm not going to do
it; I'm not going to have the abortion." She said
that the inside of Planned Parenthood "is cold and
disgusting. I can't wait to get away from here and
go home to hug my little boy." That's #11 for this year.
John, a sidewalk counselor, reported that a woman came out
of Marcus Gordon's Haverhill abortion center today and said she changed her
mind; and, as a result, that she "felt much better." (#12)
MON, MAR 11
- There were three (3!) babies saved from abortion
Saturday at Planned Parenthood. The first one said to Jean, a sidewalk
counselor, that she "just couldn't do it" after viewing the ultrasound of her
baby. Jean and Mari were each told by a woman subsequently that she had changed
her mind about the abortion. That's numbers 8, 9, and 10 for this year.
We also saw new people join us for Saturday's rosary vigil
at Planned Parenthood: 40 Days for Life group from Lynn, plus a group of Harvard
College students. Two new sidewalk counselors began work on Saturday, also!
WED, MAR 6
- Eleanor and Mary
were at Planned Parenthood today, where they -
along with other counselors and prayer intercessors were
instrumental in saving two babies (#6 & 7) this
morning (photo from Tuesday, March 5).
FRI, MAR 1
-- On Tuesday a baby was saved (#5) from abortion. This
was confirmed by the customer's female companion, who opposed the abortion, to
Eleanor, a pro-life counselor whom they talked with on the way out of Planned
Parenthood. A timely article by Don
Feder on the foolishness
of Republican - or anyone's - support for same-sex psuedo-marriage.
Civilization depends on taming self-destructive sexual urges, which do great
damage to the social fabric. The continuation of the species, and the proper
upbringing of the next generation, is based on men marrying women, who will
remain true to each other and raise their children with loving discipline.

President Barack Obama addressed abortion activists at NARAL Pro-Choice
America's annual dinner on Tuesday, saying in his videotaped remarks that he was
joining them to “celebrate the historic Roe v. Wade decision
handed down 40 years ago.”
“To everyone at NARAL Pro-Choice America, thank you for your
tireless advocacy,” Obama said. “I couldn’t be prouder of the work each of
you is doing.”

- Child number 4 was saved from abortion today at Planned Parenthood. A young woman came out and told sidewalk counselors that, "I couldn't do it." She explained that she is a drug addict and had become impregnated by rape. She was given pro-life resource information.
Marjorie Dannenfelser of the Susan B. Anthony List:
“Once again, President Obama’s so-called ‘compromise’ is unacceptable –
religious and moral freedom is not up for negotiation. There must be no
religious ‘test’ by the government as to who, and what type of entities, are
entitled to a conscience.’’

Advancing the liberal agenda, one lie at a time - 2/1/2013. It’s no longer
necessary to report the news.
MON, JAN 14
-- Judy, a sidewalk counselor, approached a pair of women
who came out of Boston's Planned Parenthood Saturday morning. One of the two said, "I
didn't do it!" (#3) - just what Judy wanted to hear. (And she had only
been inside for less than a half hour, another indication of no abortion.)

Stand for Life
Despair inside the beltway (American
Spectator) - The second inauguration of our sitting president will take
place this coming weekend as this is being written. It is a time of great
happiness for most of my neighbors and friends inside the beltway, indeed for
most people in the country.
But I find myself in despair for our beloved country.
It is quite likely that a large minority of the nation’s citizens agree with my
pessimistic mood. The reasons for that despair are not difficult to discern.
WED, JAN 9, 2013
-- "I went inside, but I just couldn't do it," said the young woman to Carmel, a sidewalk counselor outside of Women's Health Services in Brookline on Saturday. On the same morning, a young couple exited Boston's Planned Parenthood and told a sidewalk counselor that they had decided against their abortion. These are the first babies (#1 and #2) saved in the new year.
FRI, DEC 28, 2012 (Holy Innocents)
-- Since last week, three more children - all appointed for death at Boston's Planned Parenthood - have been spared. No. 72 was on Friday; and #73 and 74 were on Saturday. The second of the two on Saturday, although she left Planned Parenthood, was ambivalent about whether she would stay the course for Life. But, for now, that's a baby saved!
