Dear St. Mary Parishioners,
As we begin Lent this year, we also begin “40 Days for Life,” a movement to “Help save lives by praying for an end to abortion in our Community”.
I would like to invite you all to join our St. Mary Parish effort for this 40 Days for life. We will be having a morning focused on Life on Saturday February 20th. We will begin with a Mass for LIFE, in the Church at 7:00am, and immediately afterward, drive to the Planned Parenthood clinic at 3825 Wolverine St. in Salem for an hour of prayer.
I would love to see us come together as a parish community to pray for an end to this abomination in our community, in our nation, and in our world.
Please mark your calendars and plan to join us. I hope to see you all there.
Fr. Ralph Recker,
Pastor
