Annual March For Life
This year’s “March for Life” at the New Brunswick Legislature will take place on Thursday, May 17th. This year the theme is “Pro-Women, Pro-Child, Pro-Life”. Heading the line-up are women speakers who are staunchly pro-life and proud of it: singer-songwriter Kathleen Dunn, who has her own pro-life group “Voice” and will perform a number of songs, and Elisha Lakin will share her moving testimony on how she is alive today only because her birth mother chose adoption.
Schedule of Events
10:00am — Mass at Dunstan’s Church with our Bishop Robert Harris
11:00am — Gathering music at the New Brunswick Legislature
11:30am — Formal program begins
1:00pm — Walk to Mother and Child House for closing Prayer Vigil followed by a reception at St. Dunstan’s Parish Hall
All Catholics are encouraged to make plans to attend this annual event. This is our one opportunity to stand up and witness to our faith as Christians by letting the government and MLA’s know we are looking to them to support the most basic human right: “Life”. You may wish to bring a lawn chair for the program at the Legislature. Buses are available for those who need transportation. For further information call NB Right to Life at 459-8990 or 1-888-796-9600.

Please also write “Mother’s Day” somewhere on the envelope. Envelopes can be dropped in the collection. You may also choose to place a donation for the Debt Fund in the same envelope, but this is not required. Deadline for submission of names is Sunday, May 6th.

Correction
The Holy Week Schedule that was inserted in last weekend’s bulletin incorrectly listed Holy Trinity as the location for this year’s Easter Vigil. The Vigil will be at St. Joachim’s, not Holy Trinity. We apologize for any confusion.
