Tech Tips for Catholics

If you ever get a chance to visit the campus of Franciscan University of Steubenville, Ohio, You will find a “Tomb of the Unborn”.  I go there and pray from time to time as do so many other young people.

Below is the history of the “Tomb of the Unborn” given by Franciscan University’s website:

One of the first in the country, the Tomb of the Unborn by its very presence challenges those who pray there to witness to the Gospel of Life. Dedicated on January 22, 1987, the fourteenth anniversary of the Roe vs. Wade decision that legalized abortion, this tomb stands as a memorial to the sanctity of life. On that snowy January day over 500 people walked in procession from Christ the King Chapel to the Tomb to witness the entombment of two aborted babies given the names Francis and Clare. Three other aborted children: Agnes, Jeremiah and Michael also rest in this tomb.

The procession to the Tomb is an integral part of the Annual pro-life memorial service held on the eve of January 21 as students and staff prepare to board the buses for the annual Pro Life March in Washington. As they stand and pray at the Tomb, an eternal flame burns brightly as a reminder of the devastation of Abortion, the slaughter of the Holy Innocents of our day.
