Exciting news from 40 Days for Life Fall Campaign on its KICKOFFRALLY Anyone who viewed the outstanding pro-life film Unplanned is familiar with the heroic folks at 40 Days for Life.   ( Unplanned is currently to the top film onAmazon , so grab a copy and watch it again, or even purchase multiple copies and donate it to a Catholic or Christian school.)  But did you realize that there is a very active chapter of 40 Days forLife right here in Cleveland ?  Well, it is time to get involved.

According to the good folks at the Cleveland TLM Friends Blog , there will be an 8 am Latin Low Mass on Labor Day at the Immaculate Conception Church in Cleveland. And you got to love this, the Latin Low Mass will be  at St. Joseph's side altar.  Very nice! Most people are off Labor Day.  The Mass is at 8 am - - not a lot of conflicts at that time of day.  No other Latin Mass scheduled elsewhere in Cleveland that day.  Immaculate Conception is conveniently located to all sides of town,   Are we nuts to expect that a couple hundred people to show up? Not judging (really) but we here at the Restoration Review have never understood why so few Catholics go to Mass on federal holidays.   If anyone could shed some light on the topic, feel free to share your insights. But seriously, are we really the only Catholics in Cleveland who get this excited about the use of a side altar?

One of Cleveland's most beautiful and historic church's will now be offering a Saturday Latin Mass only one mile away from Ohio's biggest abortion center.  St Elizabeth of Hungary Church recently announced that  THE TRADITIONAL LATIN MASS will be offered every 2nd, 3rd, 4th, & 5th (if there is one) Saturday every month at 9 A.M. at St. Elizabeth of Hungary.   The Saturday Latin Mass has now been in place for several months and attendance has steadily grown with as many as 40 to 50 showing up on recent Saturdays, The Mass's proximity to Ohio's largest abortion center has led many to offer extra prayers for the unborn lives at risk nearby.  Indeed, on July 27  a special Latin Low Mass for the Remission of the Sin of Abortion was offered.  Over 100 turned out including representatives from the heroic local 40 Days for Life chapter  and of course the good folks from Cleveland Right to Life.   The Saturday Latin Mass at St. Elizabeth has be...
