“There will be days that you may not want to do the work God calls you to do.  I have felt that way.  Do it anyway.  That is why the pro-life movement is as effective as it often is today – because of people who simply decided to do it anyway, whether or not they felt like it.  And that is how I believe that, ultimately, we will win this battle for life – by each of us doing it anyway.”

St. Ambrose Academy Faculty Lecture Series:  Wednesday, November 12th from 7p – 8:30p at Cathedral Parish (Holy Redeemer) 128 W. Johnson Street, Madison.

 

Guest Lecturer will be Vicki Thorn.

 

“The Biochemistry of Attraction”

 

Today, the prevailing view on sex is that it is casual

and carefree. Is that the case? Vicki Thorn has

disproven time and time again this faulty view of sex

in presentations across the country. Instead, in her

presentation, Vicki will demonstrate that

contraception, the key to “casual sex,” alters

relationships and the bonding between people. There

is, in fact, a “biochemistry” to attraction between men

and women. Men and women are made to be

complementary. Vicki will also answer the question:

“Are the Catholic Church’s teachings on sex and marriage outdated?”

 

This important lecture is free and open to the public.

Children are welcome to join their parents.

Refreshments will be served.

Prayer to End Abortion

By: Fr. Frank Pavone, Priests for Life

 

Lord God, I thank you today for the gift of my life,

And for the lives of all my brothers and sisters.

I know there is nothing that destroys more life than abortion,

Yet I rejoice that you have conquered death

by the Resurrection of Your Son.

I am ready to do my part in ending abortion.

Today I commit myself

Never to be silent,

Never to be passive,

Never to be forgetful of the unborn.

I commit myself to be active in the pro-life movement,

And never to stop defending life

Until all my brothers and sisters are protected,

And our nation once again becomes

A nation with liberty and justice

Not just for some, but for all,

Through Christ our Lord. Amen!
