Former London Convent Now an Abortuary
LifeSite News ^ | 6/12/18 | K.V. Turley

TWICKENHAM, England, June 12, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) -- There is a large house on the southwestern outskirts of London. It is an impressive building set back from the road and towering over those who stand in front of it or those who enter.

Today, it is an abortion center run by the British Pregnancy Advisory Service.

This house, in a residential quarter of suburban London, is yet another monument to Britain’s culture of death.

It was not always so.

At one time, this building was a convent run by a Catholic order of nuns, the Daughters of the Immaculate.

In the 1960s, students from nearby St. Mary’s College at Strawberry Hill would come to this building to lodge there under the care of the nuns while they studied to be teachers. Within this Catholic hostel, there was, of course, a chapel where Holy Mass and Eucharistic Adoration took place.

Today, a different sacrifice takes place, however, one to a very different god.

How did this come about?

Some claim the sisters were unaware of the intended use of the former convent building when they came to sell it to buyers back in the late 1960s. In any event, by 1970, a forty-bed establishment had opened: The Richmond Private Clinic and Nursing Home.

How sad is that, murder of innocents right in the aura of women who gave up their innate childbearing instincts to serve Gd.

Evil is all about perverting what is good and defiling what is pure?

I'm sure they did this on purpose.

They're laughing their butts off about it, thinking what a cool, awesome trick they've pulled.

Maybe so, but there’s a day of judgement coming, and we’ll see just how much they’ll be laughing then, and just how “cool” it is when they’re facing an eternity of existence in pure hell; a never-ending fire that burns em forever and forever.

The main goal of the left is eliminating Christianity. Goal accomplished.
