This seems like a good way to 'do' the gospel.

In New Englad every Caholic church has a Pro0Life committe with connections to the entire Pro-Life movement.

Do Eastern Churches have that too?

Our little Pro-Life group in Ft. Pierce Florida tried to contact all the the nearby Orthodox Churches to see if we could work togther. Not one Church had any kind of Pro-Life group. I believe we called about 4 Churches.

I know whay that is too but I am afraid to say it right now else Easterners be offrended by a Cathlic offering some insight into problems.

Of course - that may not keep me from saying it for too long smile

When have I been shy??

Correction:

After the Rosary For Life today I decided to visit the Greek Orthodox Church on my way home. They have new priest (convert). The Church is:
St. Nicholas Church in Ft. Pierce, Florida. The priest said he wants to get involved in the Pro-Life movement. biggrin

BTW, We are going to fast tomorrow (i.e. Fathers Day) for the Abortion Mill

Please join us in the Fast and Prayer:
Quote
O, Mary,
Bright dawn of the new world,
Mother of the living,
to you do we entrust the cause of life.
Look down, O Mother,
Upon the vast numbers
Of babies not allowed to be born,
Of the poor whose lives are made difficult,
Of men and women
Who are victims of brutal violence,
Of the elderly and the sick killed
By indifference or out of misguided mercy.
Grant that all who believe in your Son
May proclaim the Gospel of life
With honesty and love
To the people of our time.
Obtain for them the grace to accept that Gospel
As a gift ever new,
The joy of celebrating it with gratitude throughout their lives
And the courage to bear witness to it resolutely, in order
To build, together with all people of good will, the
Civilization of truth of love,
To the praise and glory of God,
The Creator and lover of life.
