On Saturday, November 1st, you are invited to gather in the pews of St.
Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, in Ann Arbor to participate in a peaceful,
public procession of the Eucharist, lead by Father
Tom Wasilewski, Parochial Vicar at St.
Francis, through the streets of the city to the cul-de-sac of Planned
Parenthood, as a witness of faith and devotion to the Blessed Sacrament, and
the belief in the Catholic doctrine that Jesus Christ is truly present in the
consecrated host. We will begin with prayer in
the church, located at 2250 East
Stadium Blvd at 11:00 am before
processing to the Planned Parenthood abortion facility at 3100 Professional Dr. All Clergy, Priests and Deacons are invited to come
and wear your stole.
The mile and a third journey to
Planned Parenthood will include a time for silent reflection, the recitation of
the rosary, praise and worship and benediction. The Ann Arbor 40 Days For Life team,
along with the St. Francis of Assisi parish community invite the wider community,
young and old alike, to pray for healing, forgiveness and mercy for all victims
of abortion including mothers and fathers who very often suffer deep grief and
regret over a choice they can never reverse. You are invited to join your voice with others in the
community, as we speak for the least of God’s people, a voice for the
voiceless, as we pray for the end of legalized abortion and to make abortion
unthinkable. Everyone is invited to join
us. We will have volunteers
ready to take drivers back to St. Francis to pick up their cars. Or
arrange to go with a friend, with one parking at Planned Parenthood, the other
at St. Francis and shuttle each other.
In case of bad weather, there will be
Eucharistic Adoration with praise and worship from 11:00 am to 12:00 noon in
the church. For additional info contact Sandie Weathers at 40daysforlifeannarbor@gmail.com
