Benoit Turpin (NY) helps with the preparation of the steel beams being used for the Holy Innocents center.

In America, the “Pro-Life” movement complains about the existing legality of abortion.  In Jamaica, things are different.  Abortion is not yet legal there…but it soon will be.  To keep abortion out of Jamaica, the Missionaries of the Poor are volunteering to care for the mothers and babies who are considering abortion.  They are building a 200-resident care center called the “Holy Innocents’ Center”.  This will be a ministry that makes almost every reason for abortion unnecessary. 

The CLAA fathers had the privilege of helping with the construction of this facility.  A group of 30 volunteers came from Georgia and New Jersey to get the giant support beams in place for the construction.  Our men were able to help prepare and move the beams during the crew’s visit.  How exciting to think that when we see this ministry flourishing in years to come, we can look back and say, “We had a part in buliding that ministry!”.
