For Immediate Release
ROCKY RIVER – Fred Sokol, chairman of Stop Abortion in Rocky River committee is calling for Rocky River and the Most Reverend Richard G. Lennon, Bishop, Diocese of Cleveland to pray with him and a prayer group. To support “Life” in Rocky River on the “Sidewalk of Prayer” in front of (Rocky River Planned Parenthood at 20800 Center Ridge Road where they offer medical abortion service.)
We peacefully gather in Rocky River – Tuesday from 6:30 P.M. to 8:00 P.M. and Saturday from 10:00 A.M. to 11:30 A.M. All are welcome to pray with us.
We pray the Chaplet of Divine Mercy and pray the 15 Decade Most Holy Rosary for the unborn, for our City and for the World. We also hold signs that state: ABORTION KILLS CHILDREN and THOU SHALT NOT KILL.
“We also call out to mothers and fathers who are now thinking about killing their unborn baby by abortion to allow the baby to be born alive. Then give us the unwanted baby. For we will take that baby that you do not want and we will find a loving home for that child,” continues Sokol.
Since I joined the prayer group in September/2007 and wrote about my initial experiences with the prayer group. God (not us) has transformed the front of Rocky River Planned Parenthood to a sidewalk of prayer. Allowing the prayer group through their trials and tribulations at prayer … to benefit others such as the following” says Sokol.
“A friend of mine had inoperable cancer. We as a group prayed for her and she is now clean of cancer. She had cancer that spread through her body. To try to remove the cancer, the doctors did radical surgery on her. The doctors were not able to remove all the cancer. The doctors told her she had inoperable cancer. That was in October 2007. At the time I just started to pray with the prayer group at the Sidewalk of Prayer. After six (6) months of praying with the group for her cure. She is now clean of cancer! Praise God,” says Sokol.
“Would you like to join us in prayer? For the Unborn, for our City, for Each Other while being screamed at and having fists and obscene gestures shaken at you by motorists as they race by you? Would you also endure sub freezing temperatures with blowing snow, and bone chilling winds off the Lake? Or can you stand in a torrential downpour of rain while praying the 15 decade rosary and reciting the Chaplet of Divine Mercy?”
If so, there is a place for you on the Sidewalk of Prayer with us and God will answer your prayers for others as well”, says Sokol.
Message to those who are now thinking about killing their unborn baby, by abortion.
“We also call out to mothers and fathers who are now thinking about killing their unborn baby by abortion to allow the baby to be born alive. Then give us the unwanted baby. For we will take that baby that you do not want and we will find a loving home for that child.”
