OCTOBER is RESPECT LIFE MONTH

In observance of Respect Life Month and the 40 Days for Life, the Respect for Life Ministry invites all of our parish family to pray for an end to abortion. You should have received a Memorare pledge card (if you have not copies are available in back of Church) inviting you to pray the Memorare (suggested 10 each day – a Saint Mother Teresa Flying Novena) for 40 Days for the following intentions: 1. For all women in unplanned pregnancies to choose life, not to travel for an abortion, and to seek help at local pregnancy resource centers; 2. For protection of all pregnancy resource centers; 3. For courts to uphold Louisiana’s Pro- Life laws; and 4. For an end to abortion everywhere. Please fill out and return one copy of the pledge card to us at Mass or the Church Office and keep the other copy as a reminder. At the end of the 40 Days, we will add up the pledges and announce how many Memorares for Life we prayed! Also, we invite all to come and pray at the Fatima Shrine on Saturday, October 15, at Noon, to participate in the Fatima Public Square Rosary Rally as a public act of reparation for the sin of abortion, and to remain to pray a Rachel’s Rosary.
