Respect Life Prayer
Dear God,
We see life cheapened every day through abortion and other forms of abuse, through terrorism, and other acts of violence, and through neglect of children, the poor, and the elderly.
In a world of plenty, we can forget that there is nothing more precious than human life.
Give us the grace to see how we can make a difference, and encourage change in our culture.
Inspire us with the stories of Mary and other mothers of unexpected pregnancies, who knew that every child is a gift of God's grace and is wanted by you in this world.
Encourage conviction in the hearts of those who do not yet know or understand that a desire for choice is no reason to end any life and that you desire that all life come only to a natural end in you.
Amen.

Subject: Fwd: HANDS AT THE CAPITOL
Hi Everyone!
As most of you are aware by now, multiple pro-abortion bills are being proposed for Governor Mills signature, including abortion up to birth and making Maine an abortion sanctuary state. Hands at the Capitol is an opportunity to let our voice be heard and be the voice for those who cannot speak!
It is also very important that we have a massive crowd there so please take the time to share this information by emailing a friend, on social media or in your church bulletin. If anyone needs a ride, I am sure we can find you one so please let me know.
God bless and thank you! See you on the 4th.

EVENT PURPOSE
For nearly 50 years, we gathered AROUND the capitol to memorialize the January 22, 1973, Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision. Under Roe v. Wade, the federal government ruled the land on abortion policy. The only thing that individual states could do was to work AROUND the supreme court decision. More than $63M innocent, voiceless, unborn babies were killed since the Roe v. Wade decision. On June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court reversed the Roe V. Wade decision, via Dobbs v. Jackson, declaring that abortion was not constitutional. Thus, abortion policy was rightfully returned to the individual states to decide. Now, abortion laws are determined AT the State Capitol â under the dome of the Peopleâs House. This means the people of Maine have a voice. Now, we are calling on the people of Maine to bring their voice to the Capitol on Tuesday, April 4th , 2023, to show your support for LIFE in Maine. The legislature needs to hear your voice!
PLEASE jOIN US!!

Dear Brother Knights,
Within 36 hours of the Russian invasion on Ukraine last February, the
Knights of Columbus established the Ukraine Solidarity Fund to support
humanitarian aid. To date, over $20 million has been raised, we have
distributed over 5.5 million pounds of food and supplies through our Charity
Convoys, and more than 160,000 care packages have been delivered to
those impacted by the war.
While we have been able to provide much hope and support over the past
year through our Ukraine Solidarity Fund, there is still much that needs to be
done both now, and in the years ahead. We continue to work with our
councils in Poland and Ukraine, both the Latin and Greek Catholic Churches
in Ukraine, as well as international humanitarian aid agencies to address
ongoing needs.
Released on February 26 and running for six consecutive weeks across
ABC affiliates in the U.S., Knights of Columbus has a produced a
documentary, In Solidarity with Ukraine. This impactful film demonstrates
how our work and support continues to provide hope and light.
Learn more about the documentary and see how our work in Ukraine
continues at KofC.org/Ukraine.
We still need your support to stand in solidarity with Ukraine. Please
prayerfully consider supporting our Ukraine Solidarity Fund today.
Fraternally,
RONALD F. SCHWARZ
