Statewide pro-life groups welcome area state senators for a morning program to learn about pro-life legislation and issues in Nebraska.
The sixth annual “Pro-Life Coffee” will be held Saturday, Feb. 15, from 9 to 11 a.m. at the Riverside Golf Club, 2820 Riverside Dr., Grand Island. Doors open at 8:30 a.m.
This ecumenical event is free and open to the public. The Pro-Life Coffee is sponsored by the Diocese of Grand Island, Grand Island Right to Life, Nebraska Catholic Conference, Nebraska Family Alliance, Nebraska Right to Life, Shoot 4 Life, and South Central Nebraska Right to Life.
“State senators from our region have made it a priority the past few years to attend our pro-life gathering,” said Bishop Joseph Hanefeldt of the Diocese of Grand Island. “This is a great opportunity for us to thank them for their leadership and encourage them to continue to lend their support for the protection of our preborn children in Nebraska. As St. John Paul II, reminds us, ‘we have a duty to make courageous choices in support of life, especially through legislative measures.’”
Refreshments and a light breakfast will be provided. RSVP is requested but not required. To RSVP and for more information, visit https://gidiocese.org/pro-life.
