CV NEWS FEED // Men of Christ Madison, a Catholic men’s group based in Wisconsin, has begun stationing men overnight at their local crisis pregnancy center to ward off vandals amid a nationwide rash of attacks on pro-life clinics.
“Various radical groups, in reaction to the U.S. Supreme Court recently overturning the infamous 1973 Roe vs. Wade… are threatening churches and organizations that provide direct help to women with distressed pregnancies,” wrote Men of Christ Madison President Dave Yanke in an email to members.
“Now that unrestricted abortion across the land has been overturned, crisis pregnancy centers have become a target,” Yanke told CatholicVote. “The Women’s Care Center, located directly across the street from Planned Parenthood… is an obvious potential target.”
One of the first pro-life organizations to be attacked after the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe was leaked in early May was Wisconsin Family Action, located in downtown Madison. On May 8, criminals firebombed the group’s property, leaving behind the words “If abortions aren’t safe, then you aren’t either” scrawled in graffiti.
Men of Christ is an organization of Catholic men whose mission is to equip men with the competence and confidence to become better Catholics and better disciples of the Faith, according to its website.
Yanke is assisting in organizing a group of 60 Men of Christ, each committed to staying “inside the care center overnight to discourage vandalism and sabotage” once a month. Men are taking turns guarding the center in pairs.

That’s the kind of men we need.
Lord Jesus protect them.
Amen
We need men like this in my neighborhood.
I’ll be surprised if the cops don’t harass, intimidate and try to arrest them.
Yes that’s the spirit.
Well, they are there… And that’s a damn good start.
And I hope they’re all carrying too
Real men doing what real men are supposed to do. God keep them safe. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I am friends with two guys in this group - they have guts. The guys pulling the night shift have been harassed and threatened by the Madison Radicals. There is a real fear that one of the nuts will fire bomb the center.
