Pray to Defeat Florida’s Abortion Amendment
The Florida Supreme Court heard oral arguments on February 7 and then convened privately to decide the fate of the Pro-Abortion Amendment, specifically whether or not the wording is misleading and should be blocked from inclusion on the November 2024 election ballot. By law they must release their opinion by April 1.
Please pray that they make the right decision so that voters will not be misled into voting for this dangerous amendment. Florida does not need to have abortion enshrined in the constitution forever, preventing any laws that will protect women and their children. To learn more, go to TooExtremeforFL.com

Mothers are invited to join the St. Zélie Mother’s Group of Corpus Christi, meeting Saturday March 16th at 9:30am in the St. James classroom. Lauren Solorzano will be speaking about making your house a home.
Under the Patronage of St. Zelie Martin, The Corpus Christi Mom's group, aims to build a community of women. With the guidance of our priests and the example and encouragement of our fellow mothers, our community seeks to cultivate spiritual growth as well as practical competence in the demands of family life.
Our mission is to answer the dual call of wife and mother with unwavering faith, true humility, and lasting joy for the sanctification of our families.
Opportunity for volunteers at the St. Zélie Mother's Group
St. Zélie Mother’s Group is looking for a few volunteers to supervise the playground on the first and third Saturdays of each month from 9:30am-11am, while the mothers meet. We need 6 Saturdays covered through May; we will not need volunteers during the summer months. Volunteers will need to have their fingerprints taken and Safe Environment Training completed through the diocese to be eligible to supervise children. Please contact Brian at [email protected] if you’d like to volunteer.
