Western Washington Pro-Life Update December 16, 2010
"The only differences between the Herod of old and the Herods of today are in the weapons used and the number of victims. Herod used swords and spears to kill the Holy Innocents. Today's Herods use abortion, "The Pill" and other chemical weapons. And whereas Herod killed a relatively small number of babies, today's Herods have butchered literally hundreds of millions ... with no end in sight!" ~ Msgr. Ignacio

Washington state priest brings natural family planning to Peru's highlands By Benjamin Mann Puno, Peru, Dec 8, 2010 / 04:28 am (CNA).- Fr. Philip Bloom's medical missionary work aims for more than just healthy bodies. He's helping Peruvians cultivate a healthy respect for marriage, fertility, and new life, through natural family planning. The Mary Bloom Center, in the highlands city of Puno, near Peru's Lake Titicaca, is named after Fr. Bloom's mother. He began the center's work during his years as a Maryknoll priest associate in Peru, in conjunction with the Canadian lay missionaries Denis and Liane Bruneau. They wanted their work to pass on what Mary Bloom taught her son about valuing “marriage, family, children, and faith in God.” The center began in 1994, while Mrs. Bloom was still alive.

EVENTS 1st Annual Empty Manger Caroling in Tacoma Please join 40 Days for Life Tacoma for their 1st Annual Empty Manger Caroling. Thursday, December 16 from 1:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. And Saturday, December 18 from 12:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. We will meet at the Tacoma Planned Parenthood to gather around an empty manger, which symbolizes both the hope that new life can bring as well as the emptiness left behind when an unborn child is killed by abortion. As we sing Christmas carols, pray, and raise up the name of the LORD, we can shine a light on the hope that is needed during times of great doubt and despair. What a beautiful way to welcome our Savior’s birth. ***If you have some favorite songs, bring the lyrics or e-mail a request for them to be added to the song book - john@tacoma40days.com For directions CLICK HERE For more information contact: Thursday – Anne: director@tacoma40days.com Saturday – John: john@tacoma40days.com or Julie: julie@tacoma40days.com March for Life You are cordially invited to attend 10:00 a.m. Mass celebrated by Archbishop J.
