Saturday Afternoon at 65 Bank Street
I had a few things to do downtown yesterday ( among them was to buy a new bus pass for November) so I decided to drop by the abortion facility at 65 Bank Street . There were two people in silent witness and prayer when I arrived so I joined them for about an hour. Sometimes there are only a couple of people at the site praying but so far this campaign I haven't seen the spot empty anytime I go by on the bus which seems to be quite often. Thank you God!

Texas Parents Stopped From Forcing Teenage Daughter to Have Abortion from LifeNews.com
Austin, TX (LifeNews.com) -- With the help of pro-life attorneys from the Alliance Defense Fund, a 16-year-old Texas girl has secured a temporary restraining order preventing her parents from forcing her to have an abortion.
On two occasions, the teenager’s mother literally dragged her to local abortion facilities, including International Healthcare Solutions and Planned Parenthood of the Texas Capital Region, demanding that her daughter take the live of her unborn child.
Though she refused and the child’s father also does not want the baby killed, her parents continued to insist that they will force her to have the abortion. The court’s order prevents that from happening.
“No one should be allowed to decide that an innocent life--especially one that belongs to someone else--is worthless," says Stephen Casey of Round Rock, one of the allied attorneys ADF works with in Texas.
He told LifeNews.com in a statement, "The right not to have an abortion is protected by law, and this right isn't relinquished just because someone else considers the child to be an unwanted burden."
The 16-year-old high school student, who is 13 weeks pregnant, was even more confirmed in her decision against having an abortion after receiving information from a pro-life prayer worker outside one of the abortion facilities to which her mother took her.

Annunciation of the Lord Parish - Archbishop Prendergast’s Pastoral Visit
The highlight of the Archbishop's visit will be at the Sat Oct. 23, 5 pm Mass during which he will consecrate our Church by anointing the walls and the altar with holy chrism. He will also insert two relics in the base of the altar, one of St. Bro. Andre Bessette, and one of St. Marguerite d’Youville, both born in Canada. Archbishop Prendergast will also bless our wooden sculptures by Fr. Herman Falke.
As an important part of the parish visit, the Archbishop, accompanied by Pastor Monsignor Robert Latour, Assistant Pastor Father Jonathan Blake and Episcopal Vicar, Father Joe Muldoon visited our two Senior Residences today: Laurier Manor this morning and Elmsmere Residence at 2:00 this afternoon.. Below are some photos I took of the Bishop greeting the folks who live at Elmsmere Residence.. As you can see they were just so delighted by this visit. The Archbishop also visited Brother Andre and Thomas D'Arcy Catholic Schools on Thursday. On Sunday will add some additional photos.
