by Nick Delgado

Guam - A mass of Christian Burial was held this morning at Pigo Cemetery for 15 to 20 unclaimed children whose bodies were retrieved from the Guam Memorial Hospital's morgue. The celebrant was Archbishop Anthony Apuron, who said, "We now commend our infant children to that same place of love in the hope that they will rejoice and be happy in the presence of Christ."

Today's ceremony was spearheaded by The Esperansa Project, which is a community group organized to effect pro-life legislation wherever possible.
