Archbishop Aymond of New Orleans on the Holy Innocents, then and now

Archbishop Gregory Aymond

 

• Today is the Feast of the Holy Innocents: Herod ordered all baby boys killed in search of Jesus. Do we have holy innocent children today?? The 20 children of Newtown, Cn, the baby aborted because of disabilities, the 6 year old girl killed by a stray bullet on the streets of New Orleans......Lord, give them a special place in heaven. May their innocence help our society to have a change of heart and value all human life from conception to natural death.

 

>>>  This is but one of many refelections I have seen today relating this Feast Day to our modern day killings of innocent youth, most especially related to the tragedy in Newtown.  And everyday we know of the tragedy of abortion.  May God continue to bless and protect our precious chldren!
