The diocesan Offices of Pastoral Life and Mission and Communications will post information, inviting the participation of as many as possible priests, deacons and lay parish leaders as well as parish respect life comittee representatives and youth pro-life leaders. The Knights of Columbus and supporters of pregnancy support organizations like Birthright, Madonna House, Good Counsel Homes, St. Vincent de Paul conferences, diaper drive and food pantry volunteers who are supporting the "Walking with Moms in Need" initative will be invited.
“The necessary work to build a culture of life at the national level is not finished,” emphasized Archbishop William E. Lori of Baltimore, chairman of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Committee on Pro-Life Activities. “Rather, it is focused differently.
“The goals of these important efforts are not only to change laws, but to change hearts and minds to usher in a culture of life,” Archbishop Lori continued.
