Day for Life 2023

 

Day for Life is celebrated this year on Sunday 18 June. The theme is ‘Listen to Her’ and focuses on the experience of one Catholic woman in the aftermath of abortion. It tells of her journey towards healing.  The hope is that this will help people to listen, to understand and to respond with compassion.  You can read the message in full on www.councilforlife.ie
