Vigil Mass for Life: 'Every human being, at every stage of life, should be treated with respect' (National Catholic Register)

Archbishop William Lori of Baltimore, chairman of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Committee on Pro-Life Activities, preached the homily (full text) at the National Prayer Vigil for Life at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington.

During the Mass, a pro-abortion advocacy group projected messages onto the National Shrine’s facade and bell tower. A spokesman for the organization said it had secured a city permit to do so.
