A Planned Parenthood abortion facility that once stood at the heart of Washington, D.C. \u2014just minutes from the White House and Capitol Hill \u2014\u00a0has been demolished<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Metropolitan D.C.\u00a0location, which closed last year,\u00a0was the center of many pro-life protests and prayer vigils. Today, it no longer stands.<\/p>\n

Rev. Patrick Mahoney, who shared images of the demolished building on Facebook, says it is his hope that every Planned Parenthood abortion facility will shut down. Mahoney, who demonstrated outside the location for almost three decades, says\u00a0the demolition is\u00a0an answer to prayer.<\/p>\n

“Here is the old Planned Parenthood today in Washington, D.C., completely in rubble,\u201d Rev. Mahoney wrote. \u201cMy prayer is that every Planned Parenthood will end up on the scrapheap of history like this!\u201d<\/p>\n

Mahoney says he hopes\u00a0abortion\u00a0will\u00a0be unthinkable in the United States, only to be remembered in the history books.<\/p>\n

“In 30 years I was never allowed past the front door of the Planned Parenthood in Washington DC. Today, on Palm Sunday, I took my first step inside and here is what I saw! My prayer is that every Planned Parenthood will end up on the scrapheap of history like segregation and slavery! On with the revolution!”<\/p>\n

Currently, Planned Parenthood\u00a0is directing women\u00a0to locations in Gaithersburg\u00a0and Silver Spring,\u00a0Maryland. A nearby abortion facility is currently\u00a0under\u00a0construction, and pro-lifers have protested that location, as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
