THE
EXTENSION OF THE ABORTION ACT TO NI.
– this October British pro-abortion MP’s
will attempt to extend the 1967 Abortion Act
to Northern Ireland. The human cost of the legalisation
of abortion, virtually on demand, will be unimaginable
for the whole of Ireland. Please pray that this
disaster is averted. Abortion kills children
but also hurts women. Anyone who wants to fight
the introduction of the Abortion Act can get
information on how to help and a free “Little
Feet” badge by contacting the Society
for the Protection of Unborn Children at 2 Veryan
Gardens, Newtownabbey, BT36 7HG. Tel 02890778018
or email Belfast@spuc.org.uk

FEASTS
THIS WEEK
Monday
is the Feast of St Clare, born at Assisi, Italy
in 1193 and died 1253. She followed St Francis
in his life of poverty and was founder of the
Poor Clares. They have a convent in Belfast.
Prayer
to St Clare: Whose beauty all the heavenly hosts
behold forever, whose love inflames our love,
the contemplation of whom is our refreshment,
whose graciousness is our delight, whose gentleness
fills us to overflowing, whose remembrance makes
us glow with happiness, whose fragrance revives
the dead, the glorious vision of whom will be
the happiness of all the citizens of the heavenly
Jerusalem. Happy the soul to whom it is given
to attain this life with him, to cleave with
all one’s heart to him.
