Face of Pro-Life #119: Jill Sackidovitch – Reaching out to Youth
Ave Maria!
Jill Sackidovitch director of the Westbrook, CT branch of Birthright offers her insight of how to reach out to youth with a Pro-life message in this modern, changing, materialistic world, making use of her ample experience working with young teenage mothers coming to her local Birthright facility. She also set up a booth at a local fair and had much more contact with youth in general. She believes that the joy of life message has been received very well by youth. She believes that youth are increasingly pro-life and describes the free materials that she offered to the youth. She also mentions how ultrasound images of their little babies is very powerful for young mothers and how the youth and even young children understand the sanctity of human life very well. The youth are also very quick to notice a lack of sincerity and are quite skeptical in general so it is important not to talk down to them. They want to hear the other side of the story as opposed to the line they get from TV etc. We must provide them with this other side, the culture of life that raises the dignity of humanity and leads to eternal life.

Variety #161: Marian Parish Procession in Italy
Ave Maria!
Here™s a glimpse of the procession that was held on the outskirts of Rome for the feast of Holy Mary of Nazareth parish, one of the parishes that our Franciscan Friars have care of here in Italy. We™ve added to the footage a few reflections from the book Devotion to Mary, written by our founder, Father Stefano M. Manelli, to add some depth and reflection to this short, catholic-culture film. Included are also some piano pieces played by Sister Maria Settima Manelli, a hymn or two from our Friars, and also some faint but beautiful hymns taken from the monastery of our contemplative Franciscan Sisters here in Italy at Città di Castello.

Face of Pro-Life #144: Adopting Today
Ave Maria!
Michael Smith relates his experience with adopting two children, one from Korea and one from China. He explains the reasons for deciding to adopt and then the process for actually doing it. He also explains how the adopted kids interact with their two older biological children and the rest of the family. He also works to help his adopted children to learn more about their respective native cultures. He highly recommends adoption and if someone is a parent they are already able to adopt. It is a very pro-life action and a great way to spread the faith to new lives. The obstacles are mostly the high cost and red tape that has to be slogged through.
Ave Maria!
