Hi Folks,
One day cold, one day wet, one day hot—as usual, Michigan can’t seem to make up its mind what it wants to do!
First of course, we mourn the death of Charlie Kirk. I listened to a number of his sessions on college campuses and on his internet posts and while no one gets everything right all the time, he came pretty close. He loved his Lord; he loved his wife and children and loved encouraging his audience to think clearly on issues of grave importance. It is clear from some of the very nasty and uncharitable remarks by many people that thinking clearly was not anything they wanted to do! Rest in peace Charlie.
If you have not put your Christmas card order in, please do so as soon as possible. November is filling up fast!
October is really busy with pro-life activities. October 4th is the Cider Walk—a 2-mile walk starting at St. Rafka Maronite Church in Livonia. October 5th is Life Chain Sunday. We have signs here at the office and locations can be found on the front cover of the newsletter or on our website, milifespan.org. October 18th is the annual LIFESPAN Legislative Breakfast, being held at St. Genevieve-St Maurice Activity Center in Livonia. Our speaker is Karen Moore, executive director at Sanctum House, a safe place for victims of human trafficking
Please try really hard to board one of our buses to Lansing for the Michigan March for Life on November 6th and encourage your family and friends to come also. There is no charge for the bus, and there are several pick up places. This is a first for Michigan and we would like it to be a great success. You can use the link found on the poster attached to this memo or call the office for more information, 248-816-1546.
We are sending a letter to our members to encourage them to donate to our youth activities. It has never been more important than now to provide pro-life opportunities t0 high school and college students. The social media they use and, unfortunately, the obvious positions taken by many of their teachers provide only one side of our pro-life story.
I have attached flyers for all of these activities. If you have questions, as always, call us.
Guess that’s all for now (unless I think of something else later!)
Love Life, Diane T
