The Planned Parenthood facility in St. Louis, Missouri \u2014 the only surgical abortion facility in the state \u2014 got new neighbors in 2017, when two religious sisters moved into a home that had been converted into a convent directly across the street. And this convent has a pro-life mission.<\/p>\n

According to the National Catholic Register<\/a>, the idea for the convent was first sparked in 2015 when Catholic couples proposed building a chapel near the Planned Parenthood location. The plan was for the chapel to be a place for pro-lifers to gather for prayer and fellowship, and it was dedicated to Our Lady of Guadalupe, the patroness of preborn children. Instead of building a chapel, however, the Archdiocese of St. Louis purchased and renovated a home, which is now run by the Respect Life Apostolate. Sisters Sue Ann Hall and Delores Vogt, Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity, live there.<\/p>\n

“People always say, ‘what do you do all day?’ And I say, ‘answer the doorbell.’ The doorbell dictates what we do or what’s going on,” Sister Hall explained.<\/p>\n
