Nativity of John the Baptist: the Lord say there is no one greater than St. John in the Old Testament era and the Church honors him with several Feasts.  He is said as an unborn baby to have leaped in his mother’s womb when the Theotokos came near.  Grace can only act on a soul: what a strong argument against abortion.
