The
Virginia Society for Human Life has sponsored the first "Sign
of Life" which has been hung outside Blessed Sacrament School.
As the Roe V Wade Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion enters
its 27th year, the Alexandria chapter of VSHL has started a program
of placing pro-life signs across the area. Blessed Sacrament was the
first to host such a sign, which recalls the words of the late
Mother Teresa, "Every unborn baby is a beloved child of
God."
The sign asks those who need to help to
call the parish at (703) 998-6100. In a statement to the Arlington
Catholic Herald, Father Cregan stated that "We are willing to
help any woman who is afraid or needs help or services. If we get
one call from a woman who needs help, then this sign is worth
it."
