Dallas March for Life

This year’s Roe Memorial Events praying for an end to abortion will be held on January 21.

Buses

Our parish has rented two buses to take us to the events.  In addition to the teens who are going there is room for 80 people to ride the buses and attend.  Please call or drop by the Parish Office to sign up to ride on the buses.

Schedule

8:00 AM – meet in the parking lot at St. John Nepomucene to board the buses to go to the Roe Memorial Mass and walk

10:00 AM – Roe Memorial Mass: In memory of the more than 52 million babies who have died and in prayer for the mothers and fathers who have been hurt by abortion, a bilingual Mass will be concelebrated by the Most Reverend Kevin J. Farrell, Bishop of Dallas; the Most Reverend Kevin W. Vann, Bishop of Fort Worth; Dallas Auxiliary Bishops Doug Deshotel and Mark Seitz; and diocesan clergy at the Cathedral Shrine of the Virgin of Guadalupe, 2215 Ross Ave. at Pearl St., Dallas, with homilist Fr. Jason Cargo and music led by Curtis Stephan.  Following Mass will be Eucharistic Adoration and the annual Dallas March for Life and Ecumenical Rally outside the Earle Cabell Federal Courthouse, housing the district court where the Roe v. Wade case was first filed in 1970.  Bishop Farrell would like for as many families and young people as possible in the Diocese to participate in this great witness for Life!  Bring your family-friendly signs and club or school banner for the Dallas March for Life!
