Patricia Bainbridge, Director of Respect Life Activities for the entire Rockford Diocese, is speaking at Wonder Lake’s Christ the King Church on the east side of Wonder Lake on Saturday at 10 AM.

Bainbridge, a former professor at Michigan State University currently serves as director of the Respect Life Office for the Diocese of Rockford.

Local organizers say,

“She will have an excellent talk about the value of all life and miracle babies and the achievements of those with great disabilities.  It should be OUT OF THIS WORLD GOOD!  She plans on having a powerpoint presentation to accompanying it, too.”

Bambridge is co-founder and executive director emeritus of Life Decisions International and presently serves as chairman of the board for Human Life International—the largest pro-life, pro-family, and pro-woman organization in the world. She is on the board of advisors for a number of organizations including: Pro Vita Advisors, The Women’s Center, Life Decisions International, Gianna’s House, The Haven (a perinatal hospice), and Love From Above/Time to Speak.

She has been interviewed by numerous media outlets and writes a monthly column for The Observer, the official newspaper of the Diocese of Rockford.

Refreshments will be served before the event and there is a Mass and Adoration starting at 8 AM.

No cost, of course.
