A special Vigil for All Nascent Human Life will be held Saturday, Nov. 27, at 7 p.m. in the oratory with Fr. Robert Tatman presiding.
The vigil is a response to a call from Pope Benedict XVI, who has asked for prayers at the start of Advent from all pro-life people against abortion. The Holy Father himself will be celebrating a solemn vigil for all nascent human life at St. Peter's Basilica on Nov. 17.
As the vigil will be a celebration of First Vespers with Benediction for the First Sunday of Advent, the Diocese of Venice has prepared a worship aid for the service which can be downloaded in PDF form here. ---
