Make Good Friday Pro-Life with a Way of the
Cross at Your Local Abortion Facility
From Eric Scheidler
On a bleak Friday afternoon, our savior Jesus Christ was crucified at
Golgotha, “the place of the skull.” Today, we have our own Golgotha:
the abortion clinic, where two thousand years after the Crucifixion, His
image is violently destroyed, again and again, by abortion.
That’s why, for the last five years, the Pro-Life Action League has
marked Good Friday with a pro-life “Way of the Cross for Victims of
Abortion” at our local Planned Parenthood.
We’ve found this activity to be such a blessing, one of our favorite pro-life activities of the year. So this year we’re calling on pro-lifers like you nationwide to join us in hosting a “Way of the Cross for Victims of Abortion” at your local abortion facility.
And, we’re providing you with all the tools
you need to make it happen in your area, including an ecumenical prayer
service book, templates to promote your event through e-mail and in
churches, advice on practical considerations and more!
Though the devotion of the Stations of the Cross has Catholic roots,
the service we conduct is completely ecumenical. People of every
denomination join us every year and there is no material in the book
that would be offensive to non-Catholics to pray. Please feel free to join or host a Way of the Cross no matter what your denomination.
All the Tools to Host Your Own Way of the Cross
Hosting your own “Way of the Cross for Victims of Abortion” may sound
daunting if you’ve never organized something like this before, but if
you follow these simple steps, you’re guaranteed to have a wonderful
event that will be a blessing to everyone involved.
