Connecticut's First March for Life Coming April 15

Posted on March 05, 2020 in: News, ProLife

Connecticut's First March for Life Coming April 15

The National March for Life organization, in cooperation with the Connecticut Catholic Public Affairs Conference and the Family Institute of Connecticut, are holding Connecticut’s first official March for Life event on April 15, 2020 at the State Capitol.

The March will be a time for Connecticut citizens to express their support for the life of the unborn and their opposition to euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide. Although the issues which the March will address are controversial in our society, people of faith must speak the truth and follow the Gospel imperative to be a light unto the world. We will be joined by our brothers and sisters of all faiths in this major demonstration.

SCHEDULE:

9:30 a.m.: Doors Open – Bushnell Theater, 166 Capitol Avenue, Hartford, CT 06103
Assemble for a Pre-March Short Program
10:00 a.m.: Pre-March Short Program begins at the Bushnell

VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- Pope Leo XIV will not need further cancer treatment, the Vatican announced. Final examinations of the tissue removed during his lung surgery confirmed that the cancer was lung adenocarcinoma and it was localized; an oncological evaluation determined that no additional therapy was necessary, according to a Vatican communique released late Oct. 21. The news came just over a week after the pope underwent surgery Oct. 13 at Rome's Gemelli hospital to remove the lower lobe of his right lung. Medical tests had detected a suspicious growth that was ...

Among Friends: Encountering the Saints in Baltic

At the Motherhouse of the Sisters of Charity of Our Lady, Mother of the Church, an extraordinary collection of relics offers more than a glimpse into Catholic history. It makes tangible an ancient truth of the faith: the saints are not distant figures of the past, but friends who remain very much a part of the Church today. To walk the hallway leading to the chapel at the Motherhouse in Baltic, Connecticut, is to pass through centuries of Catholic history. Behind glass, reliquaries bear the names of men and women who lived in different countries, embraced dif...

Join the Diocesan 40 Days for Life Campaign in Prayer

We still have 10 days to get out and pray at one of the two Planned Parenthood locations during our Diocesan 40 Days For Life Campaign! This past Wednesday, three parishes were out praying and witnessing at the new New London Planned Parenthood on 467 Ocean Ave. At one point, 12 prayer warriors stood together on the sidewalk, offering their presence and prayers even as the facility was quite busy with clients coming and going. Imagine the impact—just one mother deciding to cancel her appointment and choosing Life! Throughout Scripture, Jesus and the ange...
