Fr. Norman Weslin

Last week we received a call from a nice lady in Omaha, Nebraska asking us to pray for Fr. Norman Weslin, as his District Court trial was scheduled for Holy Thursday. He was accused of blocking access to an abortion clinic.

Of course, my family prayed for him. He was found not guilty, Deo Gratias.

My wife has known the good Father for over 15 years. She has worked beside him on many occasions, and was a House Mother for one of the Weslin Homes for Unwed Mothers here in Colorado Springs.

Weslin, who was not available for comment, became teary-eyed after hearing the verdict and began singing "Ave Maria" with his supporters, Cannon said.

Thanks be to God for prayers answered, and thanks to Our Lady.
