St. Matthew’s Respect Life Ministry focuses on promoting and cultivating a culture of life and witnessing to the dignity of all human life, from conception to natural death. All are invited to attend the monthly rosary procession which will be held on Saturday, February 16 after the 8am Mass. We will pray the rosary as we walk to Planned Parenthood, the abortion facility on 16th Street, NW. Rosary processions are held on the fourth Saturday of every month. This month’s procession was rescheduled to this weekend due to the fourth Saturday falling on the same time as the Parish Listening Session (February 23 at 8:30am.
