Alex, Jaden, Jordan, Jacob, Nikki, Katie, Suzanne, Dayna, and myself were at this meeting. 
There is one more week in the Fall 40 Days campaign, on Saturday, November 3rd.  Forms are on this blog. Remember: there is only a meeting on November 7th for Officers and Class Reps.  The next meeting for everyone is November 15th. Reminder: one of our benefactors is asking that before they give us money to defray the cost of our DC trip for March for Life in January, they want to see our commitment to prolife causes.  Therefore, the more prolife evens you attend between now and the March for Life, the more money you'll earn towards the trip.  There's a post on the blog for event information. 
Political News Briefing: Every person is entitled to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of happiness. LIFE is THE fundamental right that we've all been given.  LIFE is THE most important issue that we must use when we enter the voting booth.
This week's reading was Mark 10:46-52.  Jesus can save even the lowest of people.  People are going to hate you for your faith but once you get the courage it's not going to matter, only your faith will matter to you then.  Even a blind man became a disciple.  Hist faith saved him and he had true faith, not fake faith.  If you have faith then you can be changed too.  Just like the man who kept trying, if you be persistent then you will be rewarded too. We decided that if you have real faith then you will be saved.  Always remember, "If our God is for us, then who can be against us? And if our God is with us, then what can stand against?" ~Chris Tomlin. Our God.

Scholoarship Money for DC Trip

Our benefactor is asking that you attend as many prolife events as possible between now and the DC trip. We will keep track of who is in attendance and those who attend will receive scholarship money to defray the cost of the DC trip. The more events you attend, the more money you earn towards the cost of the trip. I hope you're able to take advantage of this generous offer of support.

Upcoming Events:
40 Days for Life vigil at Family Planning of NE Ohio, in Painesville, (Nov. 3) from 4-5 PM. Rides are available as long as you let Mrs. Cicchella know by Thursday of each week so she can make sure we have a seat for everyone who needs one.
 

First Saturday: Mass and Confession at St. Andrew's Abbey/Benedictine, pray the Rosary at the abortion mills on Shaker. We carpool from St. Helen's upper parking lot and we leave at 8 AM sharp. If you need a ride, let Mrs. Cicchella know so she can make sure we have enough seats for everyone. (Nov. 3, Dec. 1, Jan 5)
