CV NEWS FEED // Kansas City’s Archbishop Joseph Naumann will offer the closing Mass and the opening prayer for the gala at the 54th National Right to Life (NRL) Conference in Overland Park, Kansas, June 20-21.
The NRL website states that Archbishop Naumann has “consistently challenged pro-abortion Catholic politicians and spearheaded pro-life efforts and ministries in Kansas and throughout the country.”
When serving as the pro-life coordinator in the Archdiocese of St. Louis from 1984 to 1995, Archbishop Naumann helped establish a Project Rachel ministry and the Lifeline Coalition, the website adds.
The NRL conference organizers say the event prepares participants to advocate for life.
“Across two dynamic days, we’ll spotlight developments on the medical, scientific, political, legislative, and grassroots fronts, giving attendees a comprehensive view of the challenges and opportunities ahead,” the website states. “You’ll hear directly from national leaders to local advocates from those shaping the conversation in courts, classrooms, communities, and the media.”
After the closing Mass, the conference will conclude with a gala, where the NRL will present a pro-life leader with the Proudly Pro-life Award.
