Hi All!
I pray you are having a blessed week. It has definitely been a busy one for Respect Life with our Elijah Rising talk on Monday and our 40 Days for Life day of prayer at Planned Parenthood on Tuesday. We will top it off with our senior items drive this weekend!
THIS WEEKEND - I am in need of your assistance moving the senior item donations from the Narthex into the parlor after each mass. Please sign up to help at the mass you plan on attending this weekend. As of now the greatest need is for the 11am and 5pm masses Sunday. Sign up via link below. Thank you in advance for your service!
I've included pictures from our 40 Days for Life day of prayer this past Tuesday. Many thanks to those who attended! We had representatives from the Knights of Columbus, Divine Mercy Cenacle, Respect Life, and Adoration ministries.
Elijah Rising's presentation this past Monday was just as powerful as the first time I heard it last January when Respect Life participated in the Northwest van tour they offer. Houston is a hub for human trafficking and our children are key targets! We need to be educated and aware! Here are some big highlights from the presentation:
As always, contact me with any questions, concerns, or meeting topic ideas.
Blessings,

Houston is a hub for human trafficking and our children are key targets! We need to be educated and aware! Here are some big highlights from the presentation:
- Average age children are entered into trafficking is 12 years old.
- Foster children are prime targets for the grooming process.
- The grooming process consists of 6 steps: (1) Befriend, (2) Intoxicate, (3) Alienate, (4) Isolate, (5) Desensitize, (6) Capitalize.
- Elijah Rising works closely with Rescue Houston and discretely provide enslaved women with the hotline # 713-322-8000.
- Love People Not Pixels (https://www.lpnp.org/) offers a "Defend Home" course for parents on how to talk to kids about pornography.
- "I Am Little Red" is a short video for children 10 years and older to teach them about the warning signs of online child sex trafficking (https://www.iamlittlered.com/).
