Defend Life Day is Feb. 9th in Richmond, VA

On February 9, 2022, Virginians are gathering in Richmond to meet directly with their state legislators to encourage them to defend human life from the moment of conception to natural death. This is collaborative effort of the Virginia Catholic Conference, the Dioceses of Arlington and Richmond, and Virginia Society for Human Life to bring citizens face to face with representatives to advocate for pro-life legislation. Morning Prayer and Mass are included as part of the day's activities. Full details, and registration, are available on their website.
