On the eve of the first Sunday of Advent – Saturday evening November 27, 2010 – Pope Benedict XVI will lead a Vigil for Nascent (Unborn) Human Life at St. Peter’s in Rome, and he has asked the world’s Bishops and priests to do the same in their own dioceses and parishes.
The Sisters of Life We will be participating in the Chanting of Vespers at Vincent Ferrer Parish (Lexington between 65th and 66th Streets) at 7 p.m. with Reverend Walter Wagner, O.P. preaching
All are welcome!
The Pope describes the... intention of the Vigil as follows: “The time of preparation for Holy Christmas is a favorable moment to invoke Divine protection over each human being called to existence, also as thanksgiving to God... for the gift of life received from our parents.”
