CELEBRATE LIFE LUNCHEON Sunday, October 22, come and hear the words of a man who lives his life to serve God and man as a physician. Dr. Adams remembers the first patient he treated at the Focus Pittsburgh Free Health

Clinic. She was 19 years old and had a serious condition but no money, no insurance and no idea how to care for her condition. Dr. Adams provided tests and discovered a life-threatening situation. Today that woman is alive and well. She was the first of hundreds… Come and hear more about the life-saving, life enriching work Dr. Adams has done. Source: Pittsburgh Business Times See reservation form on page 8.

GET YOUR PRO-LIFE NEWS EARLY Mary Lou Gartner maintains our email list, and she often sends mass mailings to tell us about an upcoming event or to ask us to contact our local lawmakers about an important pro-life bill. If you would like to be on our list, send your email address to mlgartner@comcast.net. Recently many emails with “Verizon” or “aol” as part of the address have been returned as un-deliverable. Be sure to check your address to be sure it is up to date. If there has been a change, send the new address to mlgartner@comcast.net.

MAGEE PROJECT PROGRESSES Meredith Parente reminds us that as the 40 Days for Life campaign moves along, we should continue to pray for the success of the Magee Project. We have prayed for all members of the Board of Magee as well as for the President of Magee, Leslie Davis and the Chairman of the Board, William Pietrogallo II, Esq. Of course, a major change like the one we are asking is not likely to happen with agreement of UPMC President, Jeffrey A. Romoff. Also, sign up for a time to fast and pray during the 40 Days for Life from September 27 to November 5. If you have questions or comments, please contact us via The MageeProject@comcast.net or on Facebook at The Magee Project.
