40 DAYS FOR LIFE
CONCLUDING MASS

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 31ST
5 PM

ST. ANDREW’S CHURCH, COLCHESTER

It’s been one more meaningful campaign this year. The 40 Days For Life Team thanks you very much for your peaceful witness and heartfelt prayers for the moms and their unborn children. Despite the continued pandemic, we once again had excellent parish participation. We are most grateful to all the people who came out to witness their faith and pray to soften mothers’ hearts. Faithful examples inspire all of us to join in and continue in this most worthy cause. May our prayers be answered, may the victory be won.

We invite and encourage you to join us at the concluding 40 Days For Life Mass being held this
Sunday at 5 PM at St. Andrew’s Church, 128 Norwich Ave., in Colchester.
 

Praying for the end of taking of innocent life by showing our care for all life - and for the life of everyone, we pray for the sanctity of human life -
The Gospel of Life!
