Dear Pro-Life Supporters,

We are hosting an evening information session to equip YOU about PRO-LIFE this coming Wednesday and you need to be here!

https://www.itstartsrightnow.ca/vancouver_2022_6_1

St. Anthony of Padua Parish in Vancouver
Wednesday Evening, June 1, 7-8 pm.

The speaker is Gaby Fernandes, Director of Growth and Development of the "RIGHTNOW" pro-life movement in Canada. With so much happening in the political sphere regarding abortion and euthanasia, both here and south of the border, this is an excellent opportunity to get up to speed on how each of us can be an influence for good in the public domain.

In Christ,

St. Anthony Pro-Life Ministry

Sunrise Disco is a spiritual conversation focused around the St. Anthony's Faith Studies program. Join our hosts as they chat, laugh, and generally have a good time discussing life's greatest questions
