Every October, we celebrate “Respect Life month”, and the first Sunday of October is designated as Respect Life Sunday. This year, our Respect life month is inspired by Saint Joseph, the defender of life. USCCB Respect Life resources can be found here: https://www.respectlife.org/ .
“Respect Life” champions throughout the Archdiocese are invited to join Fr. Matt Libra in a gathering on Wednesday, September 8th at 6:30pm at Our Lady of the Lake Parish Hall… first of all to pray, to connect with others, and to prepare ourselves for Respect Life Month.
