From the Desk of Father Ed:
Dear Parishioners:
It seems that we don’t have to wait too long to hear or see some tragic event on the news; another terrorist attack, or a natural disaster where there is a great loss of life.

40 Days For Life Campaign Monday’s during Lent

March 11th– April 15th  9:15 am to 10:15 am
 

Come & Join us for an hour of prayer each Monday in the Season of Lent.  We will gather at Our Lady Queen of Peace Parish at 9:00 am and car pool to Planned Parenthood in Newton to pray The Rosary and then return to Our Lady Queen of Peace.

40 Days for Life is a community-based campaign that takes a determined, peaceful approach to showing local communities the consequences of abortion in their own neighborhoods, for their own friends and families. It puts into action a desire to cooperate with God in the carrying out of His plan for the end of abortion. It draws attention to the evil of abortion through the use of a three-point program: Prayer and fasting, constant vigil, Community outreach. 

There is a signup sheet at the entrance of the Church.  If you can not join us please support the 40-Days for Life Campaign through your prayers, especailly by praying the Rosary.
