Memorial Service for Victims of Abortion 

On Saturday, September 14, 2019, pro-life Americans honored the memory of the more than 60 million unborn victims of abortion during the National Day of Remembrance for Aborted Children.  Several members of St. Joseph Church/Homewood’s Respect Life Ministry gathered in front of the St. Joseph Church ‘Memorial for the Unborn,’ which is one of three Memorial Sites in Illinois.   Our ‘Memorial for the Unborn’ was donated to St. Joseph Church by the Marion Council 3761 Knights of Columbus and dedicated by Bishop Joseph Perry on June 7, 2008.  The Rosary and Divine Mercy Chaplet were prayed at our Memorial Service.
