Original Post: This post will be dedicated to the issue of abortion in Mexico City. I will post updates as they become available.

Please pray!

i still have a bunch of ru486 literature that i hand out here in Michigan
i am constantly surprised by how many people have no idea what this is
Lord deliver us! Our Lady of Guadalupe pray for us and for the Mexican people!
