Hundreds of pro-lifers spent their Sunday afternoon on May 20 attending
the second annual March for Life in Reading, Pennsylvania. The TFP
Holy Choir of Angels Band provided rousing patriotic music for the
two-mile trek as marchers made their way through the streets of Reading
to their final destination, Holy Rosary Catholic Church.
Before the march even hit the pavement, several speakers exhorted those gathered to fight abortion as well as the HHS contraception mandate that especially targets Catholic individuals and institutions.
The
sending forth speech was given by Fr. Paul Rothemel who gave his
blessing. During this final address, a group of children gathered around
the podium to take up crosses representing the millions of surgical
abortions performed in America since Roe v. Wade.
The
march passed by the Planned Parenthood center where some of those
millions of abortions are performed on a regular basis. It was a
symbolic gesture, an act of reparation for the innocent lives lost to
the horrors of abortion and the nihilistic culture from which it was
spawned. May Our Lady present our prayer before the throne of God and
hasten the day when abortion will finally be made unthinkable in
America.
