This month is Respect Life Month
and this is Respect Life Sunday
To commemorate these events, our group is giving you the opportunity to express your love for life. After mass, stop by our table, say hi, and pick up a free wristband. Although the wristband is free we are asking that if you take one, you wear it as often as possible during the month. If someone asks you about it, you have to say something positive about life. If you don’t want a wristband, stop by anyway and check out the information we have about saving life, one life at a time, or you can show your support through your donation
Para conmemorar estos acontecimientos, nuestro grupo le da la oportunidad de expresar su amor por la vida. Después de la misa, en nuestra mesa, decir hola, y recoger una pulsera gratis. A pesar de que la pulsera es gratis lo que estamos pidiendo es que si usted toma una, trate de usarla lo más que pueda durante el mes. Si alguien le pregunta por la pulsera hay que decir algo positivo sobre la vida. Si no desea una pulsera, pase por nuestra mesa de todas maneras y tome la
información que tenemos acerca de salvar una vida, una vida a la vez, o puede mostrar su apoyo a través de su donación gracias.
