Our parish hosted a Life Chain Event last Sunday.
Our parish has 1725 registered families. We sent out 123 letters to local churches. We had volunteers calling the churches as well.
Out of 235 people who signed in (out of 273 participating):
211 Catholics (157 from our parish)
24 protestant/non-denominational.
Of the 14 churches represented:
7 Catholic
7 protestant/non-denominational
That is a SAD statement.
Getting anyone involved gets more difficult with each passing day.
I know the feeling... :(
Tell me about it. We only had 50 people show up for 40 Hours, this week.
