St. Margaret of Scotland Parish in Morristown on Aug. 3 hosted its monthly Mass and Rosary Procession for Life. Bishop Kevin J. Sweeney celebrated Mass with several concelebrating priests serving the Paterson Diocese, including Father Duberney Villamizar, St. Margaret’s pastor.
After the Mass, Bishop Sweeney led congregants — clergy, religious, and laity — in a procession to Planned Parenthood on Speedwell Avenue. A few of them carried signs in English and Spanish that promoted respect for life as they prayed the rosary for an end to abortion.
A Mass and procession for life is held on the first Saturday of the month at 8 a.m. at St. Margaret’s. Priests, religious, and faithful from around the diocese are invited to join.
