I understand that there is to be a prayer vigil at the University of Notre Dame as a kind of reparation for the choice to invite one who is the world’s greatest defender and proponent of abortion – who coincidently is also President of the United States.
I wonder if the local bishop, His Excellency Most Rev. John M. D’Arcy of Fort Wayne-South Bend, has been petitioned, perhaps, to consider the concession of an indulgence, even a partial indulgence, for those who participate in such a prayer vigil.
It may be that someone who knows His Excellency might with humility ask if he considers it opportune to consider such a gracious pastoral concession.
I’m a student at ND; I don’t know that any prayer vigil has been officially scheduled. Keep checking up on ndresponse.com for updates on events. We might get a blog started up.
