Pro-life supporters prayed in front of the Planned Parenthood center on South College Avenue Monday, two days after the 38th anniversary of the Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade decision regarding abortion.
The group — made up of area lay and ordained Catholics — started in St. Charles Catholic Church on the east side of the IU campus at about 11 a.m. and marched down Third Street.
The marchers prayed all four sets of mysteries of the rosary during their walk. Once they reached the center, they said a Divine Mercy prayer and a litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Bloomington police officers informed the group that a business was complaining about the noise because their prayers were broadcast through an amplifier. The group turned off the amplifier in front of the center, but they used it during their walk back to St. Charles.
