Immaculate...February 6, 2010<br /><br /><br />Rev. Thien X. Nguyen<br />Immaculate Conception<br />59 Walnut Street<br />Fitchburg, Ma 01420<br /><br /><br />Re: Proposed Planned Parenthood Office In Fitchburg<br /><br /><br />Dear Fr. Thien,<br /><br /><br />The purpose of this letter is to inquire as to whether or not you would be interested in leading a prayer-procession across Fitchburg to both the proposed site for a Planned Parenthood Office as well as City Hall. It is my idea that all three mysteries of the Holy Rosary could be prayed and holy water and blessed salt could be used to cast away this evil which threatens the fair city of Fitchburg.<br /><br />I believe now is the time for robust spiritual action. We Christians need to pray and fast as never before since some demons are cast out only by this means (Mark 9:29). The Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World, No. 2, states that the Vatican Council “…gazes upon that world which is the theater of man’s history, and carries the marks of his energies, his tragedies, and his triumphs; that world which the Christian sees as created and sustained by its Maker’s love, fallen indeed into the bondage of sin, yet emancipated now by Christ. He was crucified and rose again to break the stranglehold of personified Evil, so that this world might be fashioned anew according to God’s design and reach its fulfillment.”<br /><br />Planned Parenthood’s arrival in Fitchburg would constitute yet another stranglehold of evil. But our hope is in the Crucified One who shatters such strongholds and liberates us. Now is the time for us to invoke His Holy Name and to pray for deliverance. Sacred Scripture (e.g., Daniel 10) testifies to the truth that evil can infect not only people but cities, countries and entire regions. Fitchburg has been infected by evil. And while pro-life demonstrations and letters to the editor of the local newspaper can be very useful, still, as Jesus taught so clearly, some demons are only driven out through prayer and fasting.<br /><br />I believe our Catholic community can, and will, triumph over this evil through such means. Fr. Thien, will you lead such a procession and deliverance prayer? Perhaps other area Churches could participate? Please let me know if you are willing and I will do everything I can to coordinate such an endeavor. <br /> <br />I am, Yours in Christ,<br /><br />Paul Anthony Melanson<br /><br /><br />This letter was mailed out today. If Father Thien agrees with this proposal, would you be interested in joining the procession? Your friends and contacts? If so, I may be reached via my email: cleghornboy@juno.comPaul Anthony Melansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08455719838570381999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25979603.post-58733034801276092572010-01-31T15:53:35.045-05:002010-01-31T15:53:35.045-05:00Just found out previous number is incorrect, Joel ...Just found out previous number is incorrect, Joel Kaddy is 978-804-0010, please call him and educate him on Planned ParenthoodJayGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08584273551952709483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25979603.post-69800551844029204992010-01-27T22:58:03.784-05:002010-01-27T22:58:03.784-05:00If you can't call Fitchburg City councilors th...If you can't call Fitchburg City councilors then email them and urge them to keep Planned Parenthood's promiscuity out of town: Tom Conry – 978-348-1799 (nezza@comcast.net); Rosemary Reynolds – 978-345-7583 (Smile57@verizon.net); Marcus DiNatale – 978-790-3595 (marcusdinatale@gmail.com); Stephan Hay – 978-348-1263 (shaychay@verizon.net); Dean Tran – 978-353-8726 (dean@deantran.net); David Clark - 978-343-0895; Norman Boisvert – 978-342-9860; Joel Kaddy – 978-342-1442; Kevin Starr – 978-855-8033 (kstarr22@verizon.net); Joseph Solomito – 978-342-4108 (prog1954@verizon.net); Jody Joseph - 978-343-4539JayGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08584273551952709483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25979603.post-57118248564390441782010-01-25T23:13:22.514-05:002010-01-25T23:13:22.514-05:00Jay,

I am sickened and appalled that a Federal Grant was given to planned parenthood for this, and at the thought of this coming to our town. Not on my watch! I will fight this. This is a fight worth fighting for!skierBrianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18022756429100013307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25979603.post-86844158250454623692010-01-24T18:47:47.761-05:002010-01-24T18:47:47.761-05:00Dean Tran is one of my Facebook friends.

I read of this matter in the Sentinel & Enterprise and am heartened that Planned Parenthood is meeting such opposition in a town already plagued with so many problems. The Holy Spirit is moving.<br /><br />Pray for the good people of New Hampshire who are seeking to amend the State's Constitution to define marriage as the union of one man and one woman. And for the success of Karen Testerman's campaign for Governor of the Granite State. I will be talking with her this week about her campaign and have already endorsed her at my Blog.<br /><br />God love you,<br />Paul.Paul Anthony Melansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08455719838570381999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25979603.post-69787703878552093842010-01-24T17:42:53.390-05:002010-01-24T17:42:53.390-05:00Please call Fitchburg City councilors and urge the...Please call Fitchburg City councilors and urge them to keep Planned Parenthood's promisquity out of town:<br />Tom Conry – 978-348-1799<br />Rosemary Reynolds – 978-345-7583<br />Marcus DiNatale - 978-790-3595<br />Stephan Hay - 978-348-1263<br />Dean Tran – 78-353-8726<br />David Clark - 978-343-0895<br />Norman Boisvert – 978-342-9860<br />Joel Kaddy – 978-342-1442<br />Kevin Starr – 978-855-8033<br />Joseph Solomito – 978-342-4108<br />Jody Joseph - 978-343-4539<br /><br />State Rep Steven L DiNatale government webpage: <br />http://www.mass.gov/legis/member/sld1.htm<br /><br />Please contact.
