March for Life 2018

It is time once again to invite you to join people from our

Diocese and thousands of others in promoting the sanctity

of every human life by attending the annual “March for Life”

in Washington D.C. The dates for this pilgrimage are

Wednesday, January 17 through Saturday, January 20,

2018. On Sunday, January 7 in the Cathedral Undercroft,

there will be a mandatory meeting following the 11:00 AM

Mass at the Cathedral of St. Joseph in Jefferson City for any-

one who has not attended the Diocesan march for life

before. If you are new and plan to take part in the

march, please attend this meeting. We are holding it after

the 11:00 AM Mass so you can arrive in time to attend Mass

if you live a good distance from Jefferson City.

. The Shelby Co Right To Life has offered to pay a portion of

the cost for anyone going. If you are considering making this

pilgrimage as a youth, contact Eulynn Keller, adults please
