CalendarA Youth Challenge for 2007
Abortion -- The killing of an unborn baby from the time after conception to even moments before birth.
Pro-Life - Believing that all life is sacred from conception until natural death.
What do you do on Saturday mornings? Are you willing to stand up for life, for God, for your faith? Are you willing to speak for those who do not yet have voices for themselves and represent those youth of your age who never got a chance to live? Be a public witness to the sacredness of human life from conception until natural death. Be at the forefront of what you know in your heart to be right. Join other youth on the 1st Saturday of every month beginning February 3rd, 2007 at the Helpers of God's Precious Infants prayer vigils for life. The opening vigil on February 3rd starts with an 8:00 AM Mass celebrated by Cincinnati Archbishop Daniel Pilarczyk at Holy Name Catholic Church (2448 Auburn Ave. Cincinnati, OH 45219) and then leads into a rosary procession of fifteen decades. Most of the time is spent praying on the sidewalk in front of an abortion facility nearby before returning to the church for benediction. In past years, the vigils have been only the 2nd, 3rd and 4th Saturdays of each month. 2007 will be the first year that the 1st Saturday vigils are included, with these vigils being specifically for the youth and sponsored by the youth. Members of all denominations are welcome and encouraged to come. For more information, please contact Debbie Cappel at (513) 922-9270 or at email: cappeldl@email.uc.edu
