Prayer For Conversion Helps to End Abortion

Picture: The Conversion of St Paul

As I have said a number of times there is no possibility of ending abortion in this country or any other without prayer and conversion.

In the past, at Benediction, the prayer for our separated brethren would be recited, and when one looks at the number of people who entered the church in England over the last hundred years it is clear that the recitation of this prayer bore fruit. The effects of the widespread dropping of this prayer are also clear for all to see.

We try to have Benediction every day at The Good Counsel Network’s chapel. I was quite struck while reciting this prayer a few days ago at Benediction in our chapel, as the deacon was from Africa, the server was of Irish decent and I myself am from Wales. But it mattered not. We are all perfectly aware that this country needs conversion. Be it our separated brethren in the Orthodox churches, C of E, or post-reformation secularists if we do not pray for them regularly we cannot hope to end Abortion.

'In my name they shall cast out devils' Mark 16:17

“I don’t need to pray outside the abortion clinic. I can pray in my parish, I can pray in my car, I can pray in house, I can pray in my Bedroom.”

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.
