Hike for Life 2022 – Several Dates and Locations

Hike for Life is still needed to assist our Pregnancy Centers, Maternity Homes, and we need to keep the heat on those who are pro-abortion – so that means our Pro-Life Ministries still need to be supported so that the correct message is sent out and heard. If we become quiet – someone else with a different message will be heard.

Dates we have set for this year’s Hikes

• Dallas Flag Pole Hill – Saturday October 15^th (Click Here to Register)

Form a team with your Pastor, Priest or Deacon – Make it an exciting day to remember.

40 Days for Life

This year there will not be a coordinated 40 Days for Life at an abortion mill – since they have closed – thank Goodness.

However, there is still a need. Prayerfully consider adopting a day at your Parish and have a 1 to 24 hour Adoration for Life.

The Fall 40 Days for Life is Sept 28 to Nov 6

There are still too many abortion clinics in this country and there are those that are working to make Texas open to them again – we must never stop praying.

Consult with your Pastor and see if he would like to adopt a day, or even just a few hours – to dedicate to the unborn.

Monthly Events:

Spend some time with Jesus – and help shut down an abortion clinic while doing it

Adoration is each First Friday of the month at Birth Choice with the intention that Southwest Surgical (in the same complex) stops performing abortions.

Our Pregnancy Resource Centers need your help:

• I have received notes from both the White Rose and Birth Choice requesting assistance – Any financial assistance is appreciated – Summer is always a tough time  – perhaps you can assist with the following:

 White Rose:

• Size 5 diapers
• Size 6 diapers
• Toddler clothes sizes 2T – 4T (new and used)
• Baby Shampoo
• Baby Lotion

Birth Choice:

• We have 22 life decisions that are having their babies this month and each receives a layette filled with items they need (These are the first clients post SB8 to have their babies).
  • This is a long list – follow this link

Please help as you are able – or arrange a Baby Shower at your Parish to help both of these fine life affirming institutions.

And finally – this from Bella House!!

“We want to welcome Andrew Smith as the new Director of Outreach for the Bella House, a local maternity home with two houses, one in Dallas and the other in Plano.  Andrew would love to discuss opportunities with the Councils to partner with Bella House in their mission of empowering mothers and providing shelter and healing and long term transformation.  Especially now in the post-Roe era when misunderstandings about the kinds of assistance and support that is available are misrepresented or under attack, it is essential we step up and provide for the needs of all mothers and babies. 

Please contact Andrew at 972-955-8402 or at andrew.smith@bellahouse.org and ask him how your Council can be involved.”

Thank to all! God bless,
