OFF TO A GREAT START !

Posted on October 04, 2019 in: 40DaysForLife, ProLife

OFF TO A GREAT START !

Thanks to a number of parishes and churches, and hard-working pro-life reps, we began our 40 Days For Life campaign with a great turnout.

Following the kick-off Vigil Mass at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, prayer warriors were out and about at 12 Case St. early the next morning. Even though we didn’t have the first day adopted by a parish, we still managed to cover the hours. Many thanks to the parishioners from St. John’s in Uncasville, St. Matthias in East Lyme, St. Agnes in Niantic, St. Michaels in Pawcatuck, All Saints in Somers, St. Patrick’s Cathedral, St. Joseph’s in New London, Our Lady of the Lakes in Oakdale, Sacred Heart in Taftville, St. Joseph in Versailles, St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception in Baltic, Holy Family in Hebron, and St. Columba in Columbia ! A special thanks as well to all the individuals who come out and cover hours and hours, every week ! Saturday mornings are especially busy with many women coming and going. Please try to make it to Planned Parenthood on one of the Saturday mornings, as we witness to life, pray to change hearts, and hope that mothers will make the decision to keep their child, and choose life !

Thank you and  God bless,

Your Norwich 40 Days For Life Team 😊

Jesus Keeps on Loving You, No Matter What
As we approach Lent, please allow me to speak to all who carry the unbearable sadness and guilt of an abortion experience. Be assured that Jesus keeps on loving you, no matter what. The blessed ashes distributed on our foreheads on Ash Wednesday remind us that we are all sinners; broken, imperfect, yet very precious in the eyes of God and so well loved by Him. The ashes are both a reminder of our need for repentance and the graces that flow from our Lord’s death and resurrection. Some stay away from the Church because they fear judgment of past sins. Yet as Pope Franc...
