Abortion Mill CLOSED!

Sorry that I didn't foreworn everyone here, I kinda got caught up in the jobs at work and getting ready. Last week, I was on a mission trip to D.C. with the youth group from back home in the Archdiocese of Louisville. It was a very long and busy weekend, but fun and spiritually rejuvinating. I'll get around to posting some of the activities and lessons learned from the trip later on this week.

For those of you paying attention, you know that today there was supposed to be a hearing about the license of an Abortion Mill in Birmingham, AL that was temporarily suspended in the middle of May. Well, our prayers were answered sooner than expected, but alas, I was away from the internet last week, so I still didn't find out until today. Here is a segment of a news article from Thursday:
State health department officials announced Wednesday (June 14) that the clinic at 1801 14th Ave. South in Birmingham waived its right to a June 20 hearing in Montgomery and agreed to remain closed. Health officials closed the center on May 17, citing the violations.
You can read the whole story by using the link in the header. Unfortunately, there have been 4 death camps to open in the past month, bringing the total to 740 in our country. Let's keep those prayers going to get rid of this scourge.

Paix du Christ!

Sean I too have been discouraged to see the number of abortion mills going up. I do have a theory though.

A lot of these places aren't the traditional 5 day a week abortion mills, a lot of them are going to the South Dakota model of only being open occasionally and having a traveling doctor (few med students want to be abortion doctors.) It doesn't take much of a facility to do an abortion so places that 4 days a week just join the culture of death by supplying condoms and pills one day a week become abortion clinics. This also takes the pressure of protests off specific buildings. This is however a minor fluctuation, trust me they are on their way out!

Thanks for keeeping me up to date on the situation in Alambama!
