It is perfectly true that you can and should pray in all of
those places but St John, St Mary Magdalen and Our Blessed Lady are well
remembered for their prayers at the foot of the cross. The Abortuaries are a
modern day Calvery. When we pray there, we are praying at the foot of the cross
where the innocents who cannot speak for themselves are put to death. Some have asked would Jesus pray at an abortion 'clinic'? The answer is that He does day in day out, 'For where there are two or three gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.' (Matt 18:20)
He has, on occasion, gone there in procession. I have been to Bedford Square (abortuary)when Benediction was given by Fr. George Roth of the Franciscan Friars of the Immaculata. One could wonder where Demons would flee to when confronted by the Real Presence of God… On the day of that Benediction, the largest peace time explosion in Europe, took place a few miles away in Buncefield Oil Refinery. My Mother who is an Agnostic would say this is just a coincidence.
