40 Days For Life to Start September 28

Posted on September 14, 2022 in: 40DaysForLife, ProLife

40 Days For Life to Start September 28

This year, the 40 Days for Life Campaign runs from Wednesday, September 28 through Sunday, November 6. We hope you will join us again in praying and fasting during this peaceful prayer vigil for life throughout these 40 days. 

The Norwich 40 Days For Life Campaign will begin with a Vigil Mass at the Cathedral of St. Patrick on Tuesday, September 28, at 6:30 p.m. Bishop Michael R. Cote will be the principal celebrant and homilist. 

This year we are also inviting parishes to promote pro-life parish prayer vigils at their churches, and we also encourage participation in parish and diocesan efforts to help mothers in need by your prayers and support. Look for upcoming announcements as your parish rolls out its pro-life plans.

Please contact the Norwich 40 Days For Life Team at (860) 875-5770 or 40DaysNorwich@gmail.com with any questions.

Thank you and may God bless you, your family, and your future children and grandchildren.         

                                       Amen.

As opposed to being a sleepy sidestreet, Ocean Avenue has a tremendous amount of traffic. And the response was...
