A Rosary for Life prayer service will be held Wednesday, Oct. 5 at 9 p.m. in observance of Respect Life Month. Students, faculty, staff and the public are invited to pray the rosary together at Notre Dame’s Our Lady of Lourdes Grotto.
Handmade rosaries made by women in China who have escaped forced abortion will be provided.
“The rosary is a beautiful prayer to Our Lady, and it is fitting that we call on the patroness of our university to help us encounter the fragile and vulnerable in our midst with greater respect and love,” said John Cavadini, McGrath-Cavadini Director of the McGrath Institute for Church Life.
The event is co-sponsored by the Office of Human Dignity and Life Initiatives, the Office of Campus Ministry and Notre Dame Right to Life.
