When Pro-Life Messages And Actions Are Consistent And Regular...

...Pro-life fruits are sweet and abundant. Let this success story from the parish of St. Helena of the True Cross of Jesus Catholic Church in Corpus Christi, Texas, be an inspiration to us all.

Every Tuesday, in numbers too big to ignore, parishioners plant themselves in front of the city’s one remaining abortion business. They pray the Rosary and offer counseling. Led by their pastor, Father James Farfaglia, they’ve been at it for nearly two years.
...
Father Farfaglia and Reeves calculate that, at the start of these Tuesday vigils, between 40 and 50 abortions — possibly as many as 75 — were being carried out each week. Now, they estimate, the business is down to less than 20.

“The single most important thing a member of the clergy can do is be on the front lines of the sidewalk,” says Reeves, who from the early 1980s was involved with Project Gabriel and Operation Rescue with Randall Terry. Now he is chairman of Corpus Christi’s Hope House, a place for unwed mothers and their children. “The presence of a Roman collar and rosary beads is probably the single most powerful message that a pastor could send to his parishioners about his dedication to life.”

From 40-50 abortions a week, down to less than 20. That's over 1200 (possibly - as many as 2000) lives saved every year. With no new abortion restrictions. With no help from the government. Without the mass media by their side. With nothing but courage, devotion and of course - prayer.

So let us remember that the true path to success is: Be there. Every week. Or every day if necessary.
