The Glorious Dead

Remembrance Monument

They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old:

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them.

As Remembrance Services start to take place around the country and Commonwealth, we too here in Haverfordwest and Narberth call to mind and pray for those who have given their lives for our peace and freedom. We will remember them at every weekend Mass.

When you go home, tell them of us and say:

“For your tomorrow, we gave our today.”

We will remember them.

We will remember them.

Kenyan doctors speak out over mass sterilisation exercise

Injection
It seems UNICEF & the World Health Organisation have been involved in a clandestine attempt at mass sterilisation in Kenya.
Doctors in the country have gone to the Catholic Bishops after attempts to resolve the matter with the government were ignored. Now they have gone public in an attempt to address the situation. Kenya’s Catholic bishops broke the story, charging two United Nations organisations with sterilising millions of girls and women under cover of an anti-tetanus inoculation program sponsored by the Kenyan government. A statement from the Kenyan doctors can be found here.
