An outpost

[traillius]

since my house is in such close proximity to a place of evil, an abortuary, which by the way, the ‘doctor’ running it has been banned from practicing in 5 other states, what can I do as an ‘outpost’ to help combat this evil? I own my home, so private residence allows me some flexibility. I am not bound by laws ‘prohibiting dissent within x feet.’ I am strategically placed. prayers, group meetings, etc… Any advice from strategerists in this area?

Well, there are many things you can do. Prayer, penance, fasting, etc. But what came to mind is to get some blessed salt (I think rock salt might be best, but any plain salt should do - no iodinized salt). When they’re closed down, go sprinkle that blessed salt all over the walkways into the building, etc. Around the windows and entrances. The blessing that usually comes with the salt is a prayer of exorcism. Wherever that salt is, as long as it keeps its form, the prayer remains.

Any amount of salt may be presented to a priest for his blessing using the following official prayer from the Roman Ritual:

“Almighty God, we ask you to bless this salt, as once you blessed the salt scattered over the water by the prophet Elisha. Wherever this salt is sprinkled, drive away the power of evil, and protect us always by the presence of your Holy Spirit. Grant this through Christ our Lord. Amen”

Just another weapon.

I don’t live in the type of situation you describe, but I truly believe in the healing power of planting a Mary Garden. This would typically include statuary and plants that are associated with our Blessed Mother. If your front yard would allow for that (and depending on your resources), you could even provide a bench or seat for quiet reflection.

However, I suppose you would have to be prepared for vandalism. Or, on a more positive note, a change of heart.

Post a yard sign with the phone number of a reputable adoption agency.

The yard signs with pregnancy help numbers I would definitly do. Are you in contact with any local pro-life groups and do they know of your location? This could definitly be an advantageous for lots of pro-life activity, just depends on how far you want to take it. Just some suggestions.

You want to bury at least 4 blessed St. Benedict medals at the corners of your property. Will have good spiritual effect.
