10/18/09 17:44:07 Administrator	October 24, 2009 Helpers' Prayer Vigil for Life and Rosary Procession Why a Helpers' Rosary Procession? We recently answered this question here: *Why a Helpers' Rosary Procession. We will pray the Joyful, Luminous, Sorrowful and Glorious Mysteries during this rosary procession. What is the route of this Helpers' Rosary Procession?* The rosary procession begins immediately after Mass and Benediction with Bishop Jaime Soto exiting St. Rose Catholic Church accompanied by Monsignor Philip Reilly, the founder of the Helpers of God's Precious Infants. Please maintain your reverence and silence and form a procession line behind Bishop Soto and Monsignor Reilly. We will process for one-half mile northbound on the sidewalk on the east side of Franklin Boulevard to the sidewalk in front of Planned Parenthood at 5385 Franklin Boulevard which is about 100 meters after crossing Fruitridge Road, a very busy and major traffic intersection. While at the sidewalk, face Planned Parenthood at all times with your rosary in hand and please remain silent, displaying piety and reverence as you would during Mass. Do not, and we repeat, do not enter the parking lot. Remain on the sidewalk at all times. Also, leave enough room on the sidewalk for pedestrian traffic and do not block the parking lot entrances. We will pray the Sorrowful Mysteries at the sidewalk in front of Planned Parenthood. We encourage all who are able to kneel during the Crucifixion Mystery. Afterwards, we will continue the rosary procession and return to the Monsignor Kavanagh Community Center following the same route. Again, the intersection of Franklin Boulevard and Fruitridge Road is a very busy and major traffic intersection. Helpers' pedestrian safety volunteers will be present to assist with pedestrian traffic control and safety. Please obey all of their instructions and orders, all intended for your safety, and quickly cross the intersection as instructed. What is the estimated time needed to process this distance? We estimate between 40 and 60 minutes round trip. What if I am physically unable to participate in the rosary procession? We invite you to remain at St. Rose Catholic Church for Eucharistic Adoration during the rosary procession. How should we dress? This is a prayer vigil for life and rosary procession with Bishop Soto so please dress appropriately, taking into account that the morning temperature will probably be in the mid 50 to low 60 degrees (forecast as of 10/21/2009). We must set an example for all who witness us in our peaceful and prayerful procession led by Bishop Jaime Soto. Leave your most casual attire at home and select clothing that showcases your modesty and reverence. Men, if you must wear a hat, please do not wear your favorite baseball cap. Women, we encourage you to wear a chapel veil during Mass. Also, our Helpers' public presence is a peaceful and prayerful one with rosaries in hand so please do not bring any graphic or other signage. Also, do not wear any t-shirts that exhibit graphic images or slogans that are inconsistent with the Helpers' peaceful and prayerful presence and Diocesan guidelines. The best rule of thumb we can offer is to dress as modestly, and reverently that day as our Bishop Jaime Soto. Additional written guidance is here: Recommended Dress Code for Helpers' Prayer Vigils for Life. Is talking allowed? The rosary procession is a religious ceremony so please do not talk. Remain silent just as you would during Mass, to increase the graces from our prayers for an end to abortion and the moral conversion of our nation. How long will we be at Planned Parenthood? About 15 minutes to pray the Sorrowful Mysteries. After completion of the Sorrowful Mysteries, we will begin our return procession to the Monsignor Kavanagh Community Center. What should we bring with us? Most importantly, bring your rosary. This is a prayer vigil for life and a rosary procession and not a fun walk so come with a sacrificial disposition. The distance of this rosary procession is only one-half mile each way so it is not likely than you will be hungry, thirsty or uncomfortable as you may have become during the August 22, 2009 Helpers' Prayer Vigil for Life. If you do, however, it will be an excellent opportunity to offer up your thirst, hunger and being uncomfortable as a sacrifice while maintaining a peaceful and prayerful presence. Please do not eat or drink during the rosary procession. Refreshments will be served after the rosary procession at the Monsignor Kavanagh Community Center. Will there be water available on the route? No. What should we do for bathroom access? Restrooms are located at the Monsignor Kavanagh Community Center so quickly take care of any business immediately after Mass and before the rosary procession begins. If you have toilet needs during the procession, there are business establishments that we will pass during the procession. Do what you need to do to take care of yourself. Those of you who have special needs will need to take those needs into account in deciding to process the entire distance. Where are optional shorter starting points for those physically unable to process the entire route? You can drive your car and enter the first parking lot entrance on Franklin Boulevard after you cross Fruitridge Road. Park as close as you can to the Auto Zone store. Exit the parking lot on foot at the same entrance you entered and walk northbound on Fruitridge Road until you are at the sidewalk in front of Planned Parenhood. At no time, and we repeat, at no time are you to enter the parking lot. Remain on the sidewalk at all times. What time will we get back to the Monsignor Kavanagh Community Center? On or about 11:00 a.m. What happens when we return? Please remain until everyone has returned so we can all receive a blessing from Bishop Jaime Soto. Afterwards, you are invited to attend a lecture to be given by Monsignor Philip Reilly inside the Monsignor Kavanagh Community Center beginning around 11:00 a.m. Refreshments will be served.
