I went back to Dr. Emily's recently to pray outside and hopefully speak a woman or two trying to enter. When we arrived, there was a large group of people praying the rosary in front of the door. After an hour or two, I got into a conversation with the woman leading the prayers. She said they had been praying at another abortion clinic in the Bronx, and it had finally closed. She looked at me with such energy and said they had hurried to the next clinic on the list.
Shortly after our conversation, she began to lead us in another rosary. She hailed a woman on the street and invited her to pray with us. The woman was a complete stranger, not known to any of us, but she took a rosary in her hand and stayed with us through the next hour. It's a beautiful thing to witness Christian solidarity like this.
