A Beautiful Day …
Posted by Roger on Saturday, September 15th, 2007
Friday the 14th at the abortion mill was a beautiful day for the unborn. Almost 1,000 pray-ers came, aside from our usual 24 hour people.
Bishop Doran arrived at 2:30 with 50-70 priests, and were accompanied by approximately 400 pro-lifers. Many powerful prayers were prayed : Rosary, Chaplet of Divine Mercy, litany of saints was sung, and Fr. Dan Deutch, from Holy Cross in Batavia, gave an amazingly, POWERFUL prayer of "deliverance" for the PP workers, building, and their activities.
We overflowed into the street because at exactly 2:30, PP had a few men come and throw some seed on the city parkway. Police were there to make sure we all stayed off of the parkway grass. They stated that we may not put crosses or anything else on the parkway now that the new grass is trying to grow. The crosses, cooler, and bin are on the edge of the sidewalk.
At 7:00 pm, another 300-400(?) showed up for the Jericho march. Many rosaries, prayers and songs were shared.
During that time, 10-12 teenagers showed up with PP signs on "our" vigil sidewalk area. They were rude and using obcenities so a pro-lifer called the police. Three police cars showed up and the situation dispersed quickly. 4-5 teens stayed and hung on the corner with their PP signs and their cigarettes. Any chance Aurora is a smoke free community!!??
Overall, a successful and powerful day of prayer for the unborn. Thank you to all who spent part of their day with us.

Planned Parenthood & the City of Aurora seem to go to great lengths to make sure their grass can grow.
Now if we could only convince them to let the baby in the mothers womb continue to grow.

I live in the Oakhurst North Subdivision. Those of us with those very “offensive” and “pornographic” yard signs that simply state Planned Parenthood:BAD for Aurora received an email notice that said to remove our yard signs IMMEDIATELY- now an “official letter” from the association says within 14 days. Can you even believe that people are “offended” by these harmless, yellow signs. I have pictures of at least 15 other signs in the subdivision who I am most sure did not get approval from the governing board which just shows you the utter HYPOCRISY!! God have Mercy on this Oakhurst North Subdivision’s Governing Board, the “Complaintiffs” and this City! PS- This subdivision also “houses” the N.O.W President! Yikes!
Jane,
When you first said the President of NOW lives in your subdivision I was thinking of Kim Gandy (National NOW President).
Someone else told me you were speaking of Bonnie Grabenhofer (IL NOW President). I also heard Gay Bruhn (IL NOW VP) lives at the same address.
Did you know this when you moved to the Oakhurst North Subdivision?

Just an FYI for those who weren't there, the Community Baby Shower was a smashing success! You can read an account of it here. God Bless those who heard the cry for help and answered it.
