Thank you to everyone who came out on
St. Vincent de Paul Parish Adopted Day,
Wednesday March 8, 2023!
You all prayed peacefully in front of Planned Parenthood at 183/Burnet and watched as people engaged with our sidewalk counselors or stopped to find out why we were there! It was an amazing day filled with prayer, outreach and fellowship. We hope you will join us again in the fall campaign, or better yet, come out once a week (or month) by contacting Central Texas Coalition for Life or Catherine@centraltexascoalition.com
