Fr. Norman Weslin is the founder of the Mary Weslin Homes for Pregnant, Unwed Mothers.
He is also the founder of the non-violent direct action rescue group, The Lambs of Christ. As such, he was on the "ten most wanted (hated)" list of the National Organization of Women (NOW), back in the late 80's and early 90's. He was listed, along with people like Joan Andrews.
After the last two posts detailing American Catholic Bishops with no backbones, it was good to see the following in the December 2006 "Mary Weslin Homes... " newsletter.
FURTHER UPDATE ON FATHER WESLIN'S COURT TRIAL
You may remember that Fr. Norman Weslin was arrested in April at the Bellevue, Nebraska abortion mill for entering the clinic, getting on his knees and saying the rosary for the babies that were scheduled to die in the killing center there that day. His purpose was to try to stop the killing of a human person not yet born. The hearing was held in November and the Judge ordered a transcript of the hearing for further study. Not trial date has been set yet by the Federal Judge. Please pray that the outcome of his trial is pleasing to Jesus.
Since Father is appearing before a Federal Judge, it's almost certain that he is being prosecuted under the Federal FACE law (Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances). First time offenders can receive a sentence of up to one year in jail and a $100,000 fine.
Here's the quote appearing on the front page of the "Mary Weslin Homes..." newsletter:
Just as God became man at the miraculous moment of Christ's conception in the Virgin Mary... Every human life begins at conception and is a sacred and miraculous gift from God. -- From bishops' Pastoral Plan for ProLife Activities
Please pray for Father Norman. We will pass along any additional information we receive.
