A Eucharistic Holy Hour was Held: Begging God's Divine Mercy For the Wounds of Abortion! During this Year of Mercy, Father James Conlon, pastor of St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church extended an invitation to our neighbors in Washtenaw County and beyond, to join him on Saturday morning, October 15th for a Eucharistic Holy Hour: Begging God's Divine Mercy For the Wounds of Abortion. Father James delivered a very passionate, and beautifully compassionate reflection on God's Divine Mercy for those wounded by the sin of abortion, reminding us that our Heavenly Father wants to pour out His Divine Mercy upon all of His children, to heal our pain and to bless our nation. Father encouraged those who were praying and working to end abortion, to continue their efforts. The Holy Hour was rich with Eucharistic Adoration, scripture readings, a time for personal reflection, singing, intercessory prayer, the Litany of the Saints, Benediction and a blessing of red roses.                  Benediction with Father James Conlon was beautiful; to view the video, click link: https://www.facebook.com/sandie.weathers/videos/10208720702749519/?l=8726950715389211465 A Rose Procession followed: Deacon Rich Badics, then lead a procession of a few dozen participants from St. Francis to Planned Parenthood on Professional Drive, a 1.3 mile journey, with prayer and singing. Each participant was offered a red rose, which they could place on the island in front of Planned Parenthood, upon our arrival. Deacon Rich concluded our procession in front of Planned Parenthood by leading the Ann Arbor Litany to End Abortion compiled by the 40 Days For LIFE Ann Arbor Team.                    Something unplanned followed: Upon her arrival early in the afternoon, Sister Gail, finding the beautiful red roses laid out on the island, gathered up a few to offer to mothers and father upon their departure from Planned Parenthood, following their abortions. She shares, "It was a profound time of prayer, though I spoke to no one. Still, I know people saw me on my knees offering a rose to each car that passed by.  I can't help but believe that the witness of people with their heads bowed in silent prayer is very powerful to those who see it, whether they want it to be or not.  It is something they cannot forget and will come back to their minds again and again, drawing them to the compassionate Heart of Jesus. May the Lord bless you!"
