Fr. Pavone to Lead Alternate ND Commencement
While the news that Notre Dame will not yield on its disgraceful invitation of President Obama remains heartbreaking, some good news on the Pro-Life front was recently announced.
Fr. Frank Pavone, founder and head of Priests for Life, will be leading an alternate commencement ceremony at Notre Dame this weekend. Fr. Pavone will lead a group of seniors and their families in prayer at the grotto to Our Lady of Lourdes on campus. Fr. Pavone's service will be held at 2 p.m, the same time as President Obama will be speaking at the official University commencement. Check out this LifeSiteNews article.
I would like to ask all of you to once again pray. Pray for Father Jenkins, President of Notre Dame. Pray for President Obama. Pray for the Church. Pray for those catholics who have lost their way. Pray for this nation and for a change of heart on life issues. We can make abortion illegal but what this nation needs more than anything is for people to not want abortion because they see it for the lie that it is.
Come Holy Spirit and fill the hearts of the faithful!
