FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
 

 

 

On June 3, 2016,  the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus,
Brother Tyrone A. Davis,CFC, Director of the Office of Black Ministry Archdiocese of New York  and Fr. Jim Goode, OFM, President of the National Black Catholic Apostolate for Life invited the
Archdiocese of New York and the nation to join them in praying for 
the end of abortion and all acts of violence.

This is our 19th year in leading the
June Awareness Project for Life and we feel "no ways tired",
stated Franciscan Father Jim Goode.

 Our mission during the Jubilee Year of Mercy 2016, is to call on the world to end all violence that is destroying our homes and our community.

 

 

 Brother Tyrone Davis,CFC, Director of the
Office of Black Ministry Archdiocese of New York and one of the founding members of NBCAL is encouraging our faith communities during the month of June to take a bold step by entrusting our families
to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

 

 

"Sacred heart of Jesus, we entrust our family to you. Look down upon us and reveal to us the treasures of love, goodness, and grace in your heart.
Forgive our sins and fortify our weakness, that we may serve you faithfully
as you deserve. These favors we ask for ourselves and for every family in our neighborhood and homeland. Heart of Jesus, pierced by a soldier's lance on Calvary, be our refuge in life and our gateway to paradise." 
Amen.
