Marie Stopes picket


Following our successful pro-life activity outside the London HQ of the British
Pregnancy Advisory Service in Bedford Square on 14th August, supporters of
Integrity and Action descended upon Marie Stopes London HQ in Whitfield Street
during the afternoon of Saturday 16th October.

Fourteen I&A supporters led by a chaplain, Fr. Matthew Clifton, SSPX,
arrived outside Marie Stopes House to find several courageous souls already
stationed there as part of the international 40-Days-for-Life campaign.

These, and other, brave souls are maintaining a prayerful presence outside the
Marie Stopes headquarters day and night for 40 days, ending on 31st October.

The unexpected arrival of our group during the 40-Days campaign was warmly
welcomed and Fr. Clifton led everyone for a couple of hours in the singing of
the rosary interspersed with some impressive polyphony from the assembled choir
in between decades.

Many pro-life leaflets were handed-out, as always, and pavement counselors were
on hand to speak with women on their way to the abortuary and to provide them
with hope and information about practical help that is available to distressed
mothers and their unborn children.

  1. Fantastic effort. Well done to all concerned and to the young lady who organised the event.

    A good number of us were missing from action due to another important engagement but we will be back!
