I would therefore give a general welcome to what he was suggesting, albeit without wishing to express any view on the particular methodology that he advanced. Deputy First Minister Seamus Mallon also thanked the Bishop for his proposal to save the peace process. He is a man for whom I have enormous admiration. Many of these people actually believe they are doing something good. These people need our prayers for the conversion of their hearts.
Organizers report that the first two weeks of the campaign have met with enormous response.
HLI is providing calendar cards to participants, who will mark the days they say the rosary for the pro-life cause. Then the cards are mailed in every 3 months for tallying. The goal is a million rosaries during the Jubilee year. The campaign will end with a ceremony at the site of Marian apparition at Knock, Ireland. Everyone in Ireland needs to pray that we hold firm against the many attacks which seek to undermine the Catholic faith, the rights of the unborn, and family life.
