Dear brothers and sisters,

I am in Ireland, after a two day travel nightmare to get here.  Last night I met with a lady who is one of the most sold out people for God, country and pro-life I’ve met.  My wife Karen, Jessica our daughter, Margaret House, and myself are here joining the Ireland folks in a major pro-life battle.

They are where we were in the 50's in America.  As in the USA, American money is being spent in huge amounts over here to turn minds in favor of abortion.  These noble people in many ways stand as the last great obstacle to abortion on demand throughout the world.  If Ireland falls, there will be no countries in the world who view the CRIME of abortion as that, a crime.

Please pray for us and the others here; Bp. Ortiz and Cathy are here with us and of course Fr. Terry.  The people of Ireland deserve our support and prayer.  I'll admit, until I got here and met with these people, I never got it, why Fr. Terry brought young people here to teach them about the pre-born war. I now understand.

Also, this is the first time Fr. Terry has come to Northern Ireland.  We are in Belfast and it is amazing.  It is the only thing in which the Catholic and Protestant worlds will work together over here. The cooperation isn't like America.  The pro-life movement is being used by God to bring some healing here between the divided church.

 

Yours and His,

+Bp. Doug
