This great woman, this mulier fortis, this post-abortive woman, this one-time mulier adultera with the culture of death, this fragile woman, filled with fortitude, overwhelmed with the joy of humble thanksgiving for Mary’s Son, Jesus, is set, right here, right now, to redefine the “tactics” of the pro-life movement. Just by being who she is before God and man. After all: she’s honest.
Here’s her utterly honest first reflection on the first March for Life in which she’s participated in the actual walk. A must read, especially for our priests and bishops in the trenches, if you will, of this war for life, especially for the elites, if you will, of pro-life organizations. Really.
Read her post and bookmark her blog. Over here at HSH, this is post #1 on her work. I’ll have another, please God, soon, all about John 7,53–8,11, a very, very wise choice on her part, very insightful. This is the work of the Holy Spirit in her, and not only for her.
Such… such enthusiastic joy of our Lord Jesus in all this… Now go read her post.
Accompany me, Father George David Byers, S.S.L., S.T.D., as I begin life as a Catholic Priest-Hermit by choice. Holy Souls Hermitage is dedicated to the sanctification of my fellow priests, bishops, deacons & seminarians going through the purgatory of this life or the next. Prayer and sacrifice go up, of course, for both Benedict XVI and the next Successor of Saint Peter. 
Thanks for sharing this Fr. One of the greatest consolations for those who have had their children aborted is to be able to help others avoid that tragedy. Testimonies by the thousands continue to be gathered to help in dealing with the destructive effects of the violent act of abortion as they impact the mother of the child.
This young woman wrote: “….if the postabortive women out there, millions of them, feel safe and at home in a crowd of prolifers, they will come. ”
God willing I will be there next January. It has been 36 years. I can be silent no more.
Hello Jo Anne… You have my prayers and blessings.
Thank you Father.
