Walk for Life Rally at EL Paso High School Jones Stadium

Our annual prolife ecumenical prayer service begins with Praise & Worship at 1:00 p.m. at El Paso High Stadium on January 22, 2012. Bishop Armando X. Ochoa will host the annual event. We will have two guest speakers Fr. Rafael Garcia from the Archdiocese of Santa Fe and Rev. Bill Francis, Associate Rector of St. Clément’s Anglican Church. Our youth and families will celebrate Mass with Bishop Ochoa. Each year we come together on the anniversary of the Supreme Court decision in Roe vs. Wade to reflect on diverse life issues.
