The Mercedarian Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament Help Save the Unborn

Below a tremendous report on how the prayerful presence of the Mercedarian Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament outside of Preterm helped save an unborn baby's life!

Former abortionists and former abortion workers consistently report that when pro-life witnesses gather and pray outside abortion clinics it has a dramatic impact on reducing the number of abortions performed.  Please get out and pray at Preterm.  One pro-life hero is at Preterm every Wednesday and Friday from 2 to 6.  Please join him when you can.  And there are always a pro-life warriors at  Preterm on Saturday mornings.



Below is a great story on how a prayerful presence can save a life:

A very encouraging report from the folks who help organize the Cleveland Chapter of 40 Days for Life:

"It was a very busy day, reports Rosary for Life. At least 15 pro-lifers were at Preterm praying  and counseling and those missing faithful Saturday prayer warriors had been excused for more time to unwrap their Christmas presents. (LOL) But behold, an army of angels appeared on the battlefield! It was 14 members of the Mercedarian Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament in their white habits from Mount Carmel Convent on Detroit Ave! They were singing, shouting praises, praying the rosary, and counseling. The four escorts leaned over the wall watching the Sisters the whole time stunned and amazed."


"A baby was saved from abortion! Credit the powerful intercession and witness of the Mercedarian Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament to God for saving this child! A woman entered the abortion mill as the Sisters were chanting the Divine Mercy Chaplet and other reverent songs and prayers. The man who had brought the woman called himself a friend and not responsible for the child in her womb. He further said that he had two daughters and did not believe in abortion. It was pointed out to him that he was an accomplice to this evil by providing the transportation and that the child in the womb was no different than his daughters. He expressed that he would lay down his life for his daughters and could do no less for the child in the womb! With the Mercedarian Sisters praying out loud in the background, the man entered Preterm.  Within a few minutes he exited the building with the woman he had brought. As they drove past, they held up the pro-life literature and joyfully smiled and waved as they fled from death! Please share the good news with the Sisters and thank them for this end of the year "SAVE" following the celebration of the birth of Christ."

5 Great Eucharistic Adoration Sites in Cleveland

Image
The world has gone mad, no doubt.  But how should we respond?  Since we are basically only on this Earth for a nanosecond when compared to eternity, perhaps we should find time to talk to God, to discern His will for us, and then to try to do his will…make time to talk with our Lord, to listen to Him, and to beg Him for mercy.  One of the best ways to do this is at Eucharistic Adoration.   "Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration is the adoration of Jesus Christ present in the Holy Eucharist. In the many Churches that have this adoration, the Eucharist is displayed in a special holder called a monstrance, and people come to pray and worship Jesus continually throughout the day and often the night. Christ’s great love for us was shown when he was crucified on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins and give us eternal life. He loves us without limit, and offers Himself to us in the Holy sacrament of the Eucharist. Can we not give Jesus a few minutes of love and adoration in return?"

Cleveland Latin Mass Community Reacts to News

Image
  It was a match made in Heaven. The Traditional Latin Mass and some of Cleveland’s most beautiful, historic churches.  Immaculate Conception, St Stephen’s, St, Rocco’s and more recently Mary Queen of Peace, St. Elizabeth of Hungary and St. Ignatius of Antioch.    In many ways it was the fulfillment of former Bishop Pilla’s excellent Church in the City initiative.  Catholics from all over Northeastern Ohio gathering together in some of our older urban neighborhoods and worshipping Our Lord.  Obviously, the very positive financial impact on some of these struggling parishes can not be overstated.  It is significant and probably saved a parish or two.  But there is more.  Far more. Friendships were formed, volunteer efforts initiated, lives were changed, neighborhoods revived.  There were many conversions to the Faith, and perhaps even more reversions to the Faith. And as  Pope Benedict has noted about the Latin Mass: "young people too have discovered this liturgical form, felt its

They came for the Beauty, They Stayed to Give Back - The Latin Mass Community Rolls Up Its Sleaves!

Catholic Tradition is more than Latin, incense and bells; it is feeding a neighbor, clothing a stranger, and rescuing the unborn.  And so, when more and more young adults started returning to the beautiful, historic Catholic churches in urban Cleveland and attending the timeless Traditional Latin Mass, these same young adults found neighborhoods in need of their love, kindness and Christian Charity.        Thanks to these young Catholic traditionalists, last month we were able to witness Cleveland charity at its best.  And when the Cleveland Latin Mass community, the pro-life community, the Benedictines and people with good hearts all work together amazing things can happen.  In mid-March, on the eve of the Feast of St Joseph, friends of Father Bede OSB joined together to supply residents in the Buckeye/Shaker Blvd neighborhood with 100 free fish dinners from the Benedictine HS fish fry.  The idea started with the Oliver Plunkett Young Adult Club as a way of thanking Father Bede OSB fo
