Fox News analyst, author to address at Pro-Life Banquet Wednesday
An
international celebrity and author will give the keynote address at the
fifth annual Bishop’s Pro-Life Banquet, which will be held at 6:30 p.m.
Wednesday at the Bossier Civic Center, 620 Benton Road.
The
Rev. Jonathan Morris, author, analyst for FOX News and program director
for The Catholic Channel on Sirius Radio, and priest in the Catholic
Diocese of New York, will speak on the theme for this year’s event –
“Witness for Life.”
Morris, whose latest book is, “The Way of Serenity: finding peace and happiness in The Serenity Prayer,” also wrote “The Promise: God's Purpose and Plan for When Life Hurts,” and “God Wants You Happy: from self-help to God’s Help.”
“We
are excited to bring Father Morris to our diocese to promote our
pro-life efforts and energize the faithful on how to continue uplifting
the sacredness of life in our region,” said Most Rev. Michael G. Duca,
bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Shreveport. “I am truly pleased at
how our banquet has grown over the years and I am hoping to see one
thousand people in attendance on March 11th.”
Duca won’t be disappointed – more than 800 tickets had been sold two weeks ago according to organizers of the event.
The
Pro-Life Banquet is open to people of all faith traditions who support
the sanctity of life. Project organizer Dr. Bernadette Boyd said,
“Father Morris is well known to so many people because of his media
outreach. We’re hoping that his presence with us that evening will give
us continued momentum in the witness for life in this area.”
Just
today, Morris posted the following comment on his Facebook page, “Come
be with me tomorrow (Wednesday) in Shreveport, LA, to support pro-life
efforts in that great city and diocese.”
