Missionary Servants of the Gospel of Life
The Helpers of God’s Precious Infants are a group of people committed to maintaining a loving and prayerful presence outside of the abortion mills, where God’s children are put to death. We unite ourselves with these victims in solidarity with their pain, as they are put to death at this modern day Calvary. We pray in reparation for the injustice being performed on their tiny bodies. Just as Mary and John lovingly stood and prayed beneath Jesus’ Cross as he died, we wish to remain with these children in the hour that they are crucified. Most of all, we love the unborn children who will be brought there that day. These children have been rejected by their parents, and are doomed to die. The only human love they may ever encounter in their short lives may be from those of us standing outside. www.helpersny.org

Car Parade for Life
2021-01-29 13:00 - 14:00 | Fairbanks Park
LOGISTICS ARE BELOW THIS MESSAGE
————————————————–
Brothers,
On Friday, January 29th at 1:00 PM EST we are tentatively planning a “Car Parade for Life.” Because of the pandemic the Knights of Columbus’ active role in Pro-Life and other activities has come to a screeching halt this year. The 12th consecutive Indiana K of C bus trip to the March for Life in Washington D.C. has been cancelled. .
Indiana K of C Pro-Life has come-up with an alternative plan. They intend to conduct state-wide car parades to be operated by each council. By remaining in our own vehicles we can send our message to all communities and yet remain safe from the virus.
We need drivers for this initiative. We will be planning out a route(s) depending on how many Knights step up to join in this effort. We’ll promote this parade in their our Parish bulletins.. Signs will be displayed on and in the autos. On the 29th, we’ll meet at a predesignated area and leave at 1 pm Eastern time coinciding with the National March.
This idea is very unique to say the least, perhaps even CRAZY! However, it can bring all of the Catholic/K of C beliefs to the public which the media does not present. But it requires YOUR participation!
My brothers, this project will take just an hour or less of your time but will mean a great deal to fight the culture of death that has gripped our nation! The Knights of Columbus have carried the Catholic message for years and now we have a program that can reach ALL Americans! We ask you to join in this parade and make it a success.
More details will be made available as all the planning comes together. But, for now, we need to know if you are willing to participate. We’ll need to either order or make signage for the vehicles in the car parade. Please respond to this message asap so we can get an idea of how many we need to plan for.
Thank you,
Bret Ridgway
Grand Knight
