THE BASICS OF EVERY EVENT

3rd Fridays of the month. Locations will vary.

There is no cost for the luncheon and no asks for donations and it is not a platform for political agendas. While there is always a guest speaker, the best part of the program is when we pass the microphone to any one of the Spirit inspired audience.

Project Joseph Facilitator & Speaker, Silent No More Awareness Campaign

More about the Mission

Project Joseph is a Catholic Charities ministry offered to men who have experienced abortions. The ministry is groundbreaking in that it cuts through the stereotype that only women suffer the effects of abortion.

One of the reasons some men feel guilty over an abortion is because they have sometimes pressured their partner into intercourse and then to abort when their partner got pregnant. They might also feel guilty because they may not have wanted an abortion, but felt unprepared for fatherhood. And while these men find themselves initially relieved when their partner chooses abortion, they are later beset by feelings of guilt.
