We are very excited to be honoring Monsignor Philp Reilly at our Lumina fund raising dinner on December 6th in White Plains, NY. Monsignor has faithfully prayed and fasted outside of theBrooklyn Ambulatory Surgery Center abortion facility since 1990.
Praise be to God, the clinic has now closed.
One of the things I love the most about Monsignor is his desire to save the souls of those involved in abortion as much as his desire to save the unborn. He clearly sees the devastation and as a priest has always sought healing for those who have been involve din abortion. He loves them as much when they come out of the clinic as when they went in.
This is from an article on LifeNews:
“This was the oldest and largest abortion clinic in New
York City and for many years, in the United States,” said Msgr. Reilly.
“I believe more than a quarter of a million unborn children lost their
lives there.”
Msgr. Reilly and the Helpers were accompanied by then-newly appointed
Bishop Thomas V. Daily in the summer of 1990 when they first prayed at
the site. They were met by a vicious band of pro-abortion supporters who
tried to drown out their prayers and hymns of praise. For years, the
pro-aborts continued to harass the Helpers during their monthly Rosary
vigils there. Mostly young, they would blow whistles and hurl
obscenities at the Helpers who held their ground as they prayed. The
N.Y.C. Police always were on hand to assure safety and maintain peace.
“The Helpers are present outside of abortion clinics not simply to
save babies but to save souls,” reminds Msgr. Reilly. “Indeed the
Helpers are present not simply to witness to the truth but to convert
people to the truth and change hearts. After so many years of good lay
people, religious, priests and bishops praying and fasting outside of
the Ambulatory abortion clinic … after so many years of dedicated
laypeople offering help by sidewalk counseling to the pregnant women
entering the clinic, the Lord has granted a complete victory.”
