C-PLAN is launching a 54-day Rosary novena to close Planned Parenthood and are inviting all Catholics in the Diocese of Charlotte to participate. Currently are 3 Planned Parenthood locations in the diocese, Charlotte, Winston-Salem, and Asheville.
The Rosary will begin Friday June 21 and conclude on Wednesday August 14, which is both the feast of St. Maximilian Kolbe (the patron saint of the pro-life movement), and the Vigil of the Assumption of the Blessed Mother. To participate, please pray 1 Rosary daily from Friday June 21 – Wednesday August 14.
Our brother’s keeper: Can you join us for a Rosary novena for Ireland beginning this Wednesday May 16 – Thursday May 24?
Ireland is set to vote on whether to retain or repeal it’s 8th amendment which protects the unborn. The vote is Friday, May 25, 2018. We know that the effort to repeal Ireland’s pro-life law is a serious threat to all humanity and serves as a warning for all mankind to pray – to pray especially the Rosary.
That’s where you can help.
Can you join us in helping the Irish by praying a Rosary novena starting this Wednesday May 16 and ending Thursday May 24?
Rosary novena: Pray 1 Rosary each day (5 decades) for the intention that the Irish people will retain their pro-life amendment.
Duration: Pray each day from Wednesday May 16 and ending Thursday May 24th (the day before the vote).
Referendum Day, Friday May 25: Please consider attending Mass, fast, offer an Adoration Hour or a visit to the Blessed Sacrament to pray for Ireland as they head to the polls.
In response to the string of undercover Planned Parenthood exposé videos, C-PLAN of Charlotte, a new group of Catholic pro-life workers and ministry leaders, organized a Rosary Rally at the local Planned Parenthood on Albemarle Rd. from 4pm-6pm on August 14th, the feast day of the patron saint of the pro-life movement, St. Maximilian Kolbe.
It was such a huge success, and shows what parish Respect Life coordinators can do when we work together. Nearly 400 people, including 6 priests and a handful of deacons and seminarians, joined us in prayer.
After the event, Fr. Roux celebrated a special pro-life Vigil Mass for the Feast of the Assumption at the Cathedral for rally participants, including a beautiful candlelight procession.
You can read the Rosary Rally coverage at the Catholic News Herald and watch the video:
The Rosary Rally was also picked up by the local news channels which you can find below.
On behalf of the Carolina Pro-Life Action Network (C-PLAN), we wanted to thank the 360+ faithful who turned our for our Rosary Rally. It shows what we can accomplish when all the Catholic parishes coordinate their pro-life activities, which is the mission of our new group. To learn more about C-PLAN sign up for our newsletter.
