The above slideshow consists of photos taken by Jeff Geniesse at yesterday's pro-life vigil outside Marquette's Planned Parenthood. We were very pleased to be led in prayer by Bishop Alexander K Sample, bishop of Marquette.

It is striking how many motorists do honk in favour of Planned Parenthood as if to say: "Yes, kill the children!" I couldn't help thinking of the thundering cries of "Crucify Him" that Our Lord endured as his Mother and disciples stood helplessly by.
