Springfield Right to Life

"A Nation that kills its own children has no future." - Pope Bl. John Paul II, 1996

This coming weekend is the anniversary of Roe vs. Wade - the court decision whereby abortion was legalized in the United States.  This monsterous injustice needs to be opposed so that many millions of defenseless children of the future may actually have the chance to draw their first breath.

 

This cominging weekend, there is a Recommitment to Life Rally at the Howlett Building Auditorium - Sunday, January 22nd @ 2:00pm. This year's main speaker will be Rebecca Kiessling: an attorney from Michigan who will share her testimony as a child conceived in rape.

 

The following Monday, Janary 23 @ 7:30a.m. - 4:30p.m., there will be a Prayer Vigil outside of Planned Parenthood (the main provider of abortions in the U.S.).  Got to www.srtl.org for more information.

 

 

 
 
Work the Breadline, Help the Homeless!
Saturday January 28, we will be helping out at the St. John's Breadline.  It's a great opportunity to help some of those poor people during some of the coldest months of the winter.  This is our January service project, and we ask that participants sign up after Sunday YAM Mass by January 22.
 
Social Night
This coming Friday the 13th is GAME NIGHT in the social room.  There will be games, pizza, soda, and all sorts of fun people (but no guys named Jason Voorhees wearing hockey masks)!  Come on out to the Social Room @ the Pastoral center around 6:00pm and have some fun!
 

 
Welcome to the Online Home of the Young Adult Mass! PDF Print E-mail

Welcome to the online home for the Springfield Area Young Adult Mass!  Our purpose is to engage young Catholics from the greater Springfield area and prepare them for future parish life.


Our Mission is simple.  We want... 

1. To help young adults develop their spiritual life rooted in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. 

2.  To help young adults develop relationships with peers who share similar values and beliefs which nurture and strengthen their faith.

3.  To invite young adults to participate in the life of the Church through worship, faith formation programs, and community service.

 

We hope you will join us each and every Sunday evening at 8 p.m. for Mass in the St. Viator Chapel within the Catholic Pastoral Center.  All ages are welcome.
