Appropriate for the Entire Family!   Meet Lisa Marianacci & Her Family      Lisa Marianacci is a devoted wife and mother of three (so far), witnessing to the sanctity of human life through her vocation.  She spent six years working as a crisis pregnancy counselor at two local clinics. After the birth of her third child, her schedule made counseling unsustainable. Through openness to hearing the Lord's calling in this season of her life, she has been pleasantly surprised with how much opportunity she has found to share the pro-life message. From new friends, to acquaintances, to her children, to casual encounters at the super market, she has come to realize that the opportunity to support and advocate for the sanctity of human life is all around us. Lisa says that her current inspiration for her work in the pro-life movement follows the example of Saint Teresa of Calcutta, "I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples." Meet Sara Yarrington & Her Children After working many years as an engineer, Sara Yarrington was able to stop working to be a Stay At Home Mom.  She found much more fulfillment doing children's ministry, and babysitting for a women's bible study. Once she had her third child, and joined the bible study herself, she realized how much she didn't know about God. She always knew she was pro-life, but did not know how passionately she wanted to be involved until having her 4th child and recovering from severe post-partum depression.  Her 5th child is coming next April. Sara is a parishioner of Our Lady of Good Counsel Catholic Church.    Why a "Jericho March"?  In the first chapter of Joshua, God commands Joshua to cross the Jordan and take possession of the promised land, saying He would never leave or forsake the Israelites and for them to be "strong and courageous" in conquering the land. When they came to Jericho, a highly fortified city, God promised to deliver the city to the Israelites. They were commanded to march around the city once a day for 6 days without any war cries. On the 7th day they marched around the city 7 times and on the 7th lap they all shouted at the trumpet call as God had instructed, and the walls of the city collapsed. They were able to easily take the city. We will march around Planned Parenthood once for 6 Sundays and then walk 7 laps on the 7th Sunday. We pray for God to break down the spiritual walls in people's hearts in Planned Parenthood and for the evil of abortion to collapse. Like the Israelites we must be strong and courageous as God calls us to fight His battle against abortion.   Our Great Lineup of Pro-life Speakers!
