Messages of support for Father Frank Pavone poured in from pro-life and conservative voices across America as news of the Vatican's decision to dismiss Pavone from the priesthood spread.
This latest development from the Vatican is the result of an abusive process to which I have been objecting for years and which has lacked both transparency and common sense.
According to the pope's U.S. representative, the order for dismissal from the priesthood was a result of 'blasphemous communications on social media' and 'persistent disobedience of the lawful instructions of his diocesan bishop,' but Pavone said he had no knowledge of the Vatican's decision.
Fr. Alan said Priests for Life is asking pro-lifers throughout the country for prayers and penance on Dec. 3, to make reparation for the sin of abortion, to honor this particular child who was so publicly dishonored, and to implore God’s mercy for the conversion of those who killed her.
Is it any surprise that a dissenting opinion that tries to uphold Roe and Casey and the 'right to abortion' is similarly devoid of Constitutional justification?
‘The government can restrict someone's religious freedom precisely out of an interest to protect others,’ the national director of Priests for Life clarified.
By participating in a vigil, ‘you are helping to humanize our aborted brothers and sisters and deepening your own commitment to ending the injustice of abortion.’
