An Iraqi nun who has lived through four wars is the keynote speaker of a pro-life event Sunday in Boston marking the 44th anniversary of the court decision that legalized abortion.
Every year, Massachusetts Citizens for Life organizes an assembly to coincide with the anniversary of Roe vs. Wade and the legalization of abortion in all 50 states. It's a time of sorrow for participants, but also of renewed fervor as they commit to another year of defending the unborn. Perhaps that's why this year, MCFL chose for its keynote speaker a woman who began her life of service to the vulnerable in the midst of a warzone.
WASHINGTON D.C. — The much-ballyhooed "Deplore-a-Ball" pre-inauguration party went off without a hitch Thursday night, despite protesters' best efforts to disrupt access to the downtown event, as America's capital city braces itself for Republican Donald Trump's incoming administration.
An evening that saw thousands descend upon the Lincoln Memorial for a grand welcoming concert featuring the likes of country music star Toby Keith also featured a massive fireworks display, as Trump addressed a crowd of supporters, telling them they wouldn't be "forgotten anymore."
