St. Francis dedicates Memorial to the Unborn

St. Francis dedicates Memorial to the Unborn

The Rev. Anthony Yates, pastor of St. Francis Of Assisi Parish, recently dedicated a Memorial to the Unborn on the south side of the church at 4556 Telegraph Road. The memorial was made possible from donations by St. Francis of Assisi parishioners, the Pro-Life Committee and the parish Knights of Columbus Council. ‘Thank you to everyone who participated in the purchase and the planning of the Memorial for the Unborn. The Pro-Life Committee hopes the monument will increase awareness and prayers for the sanctity of all life, including families who have had miscarriages, families struggling with an unplanned pregnancy and reconciliation of families who have had abortions,’ St. Francis of Assisi Pro-Life Committee Chair Jan Whitman said. ‘We are also hoping the monument can serve as a reminder to thank God for your life and for the life of your children and family members.’
