‏ Pro-life Meditations of the Cross in Norristown, PA a Huge Success!

"Our Lord suffered and died to make reparation for the sins of humanity. Consequently, the devotions to the Stations of the Cross is most appropriate in front of Planned Parent where the shedding of innocent blood is practiced." - Paulette Matthews

Campaign Director, 40 Days for Life/Norristown

God bless all our faithful prayer warrior's for life! We had quite a good turnout at the Stations of the Cross on Saturday March 14th, despite all the rain!

I had a call from a women who has never witnessed at a Planned Parenthood and wanted to have someone with her. She mentioned that Saturday was a good day for her. She brought her two daughters and two grandson's for their very first witness at the Norristown Planned Parenthood . She is from St. Maria Goretti parish in Hatfield. Our youngest in attendance was 11 months old.

Our Lenten Journey has Begun with 1st Save at Norristown, PA Planned Parenthood

Praise God!!!

A mother was leaving the Norristown Planned Parenthood after having a pregnancy test and is going to keep her baby!!! Bill Bogle, a Sidewalk Counselor spoke to her and she gave him the good news.

We have a demolition crew across the street from Norristown's Planned Parenthood that is taking down the old Montgomery Hospital and the Medical Building on the corner. It has been years since Montgomery Hospital did surgical abortions; they stopped due to the pro-lifer's prayers and faithful persistence. Praise God!!

Pictured is Victoria Naoe, SNM  praying on her knees kicking off our 1st day!  

A demolition worker had asked Victoria and myself to move our cars back up the street to park a huge vehicle for the demolition process.

Earlier as I was driving past the other side of the hospital and I was listening to the demolition ball being thrown on the side of the hospital wall, I couldn't help but think that our faithful prayer warrior's during this prayer vigil who will be fasting, praying and public witnessing will eventually close this medical abortion mill. All in God's perfect timing.

An amazing start with our Lenten journey!!!
