Adult Baptisms Grow 20% in France

French Catholics Demonstrate Against Gay Marriage on
April 6, 2013, Saturday
In France baptisms have grown in the last five years by 20 percent. There were about 5,000 adults baptized on Eastern Vigil in France.

This is from a press report of the French Bishops Conference on March, 25 2013.

The photo above was taken at a stations of the cross in France, protesting against gay marriage. This quote was from a commenter on the Facebook site of a defense of marriage site in France:

Peace will return to the world when the White Flower against sits on the throne of France…” 
 XII century, Prophesy of St. Hildegarde. 
 Note: In many professes, the Grand Monarch will be called “Flower of the Lilly” or “white flower”. The florentine lilly is a symbol of the monarchy of France.

Very interesting that reference is made to the Great Monarch. Also - of course - it is good to see the rise in the number of baptisms.

I felt the need to spice it up a bit by pointing out that the French are very much against this fake marriage thing the Socialist party is pursuing.
