PRO-LIFE
PETITION DAY
SPUC's Child Protection Petition Day is 4/5
July petitioning the Prime Minister is
seeking to stop secondary schools being used as
abortion referral centres. There are a number of
concerns: (1) school nurses, and other advisers
of schoolchildren, are being given a clear remit
by the government to refer for abortions without
informing parents (2) the government is insisting
that information on how to get an abortion is included
in sex education lessons, and (3) it wants to establish
school-based sexual health clinics in secondary
schools. Many schoolgirls will be persuaded to do
something they could regret for ever. SPUC is aiming
to gather half a million signatures and bring pressure
to bear on the Government to reverse its policy.
Please add your name to the petition at the back
of the church and help stop this unjust attack on
the rights of schoolchildren, families and the unborn. |

Mass with the children on Tuesday 30 June
