Byzantine Catholic Pro-Life Activism – Akathist Hymn
to the Mother of God!
As part of the 40 Days for
Life fall campaign, join us on Saturday, October 26, 2013 at 11:30 am as we
pray the Akathist Hymn to the Mother of God outside of the Planned Parenthood
abortion clinic at 3100 Professional Drive in Ann Arbor. For centuries, Eastern Christians, both
Orthodox and Eastern Catholic, have prayed the Akathist Hymn to ask the
intercession and protection of the Mother of God. Therefore, it is the perfect prayer to use
for the purpose of asking for the Blessed Virgin's assistance in defeating the
culture of death. For more info go to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1aTQe869rg.
The Ann Arbor 40 Days For Life Fall Campaign will run until Sunday Nov. 3rd. Local pro-life
advocates are encouraged to visit the Ann Arbor campaign’s website, www.40daysforlife.com/annarbor,
to sign up for hours of prayer in front of Planned Parenthood, 3100
Professional Drive, Ann Arbor. Questions?
