What's it all about... CHOICES!


Tim Tebow Commercial & Parents Tell Full Story at Las Vegas Bible Study (10:32 min)
So you would like to know the significance of the crosses. Afford me one minute to explain.



Some people who feel excluded from church are those who have suffered the trauma of an abortion. On the grim anniversary of Roe vs Wade, we will have 400 crosses on our property to demonstrate the weight of abortion. I have been told by our Respect Life Committee that there are over 400 abortions a month in Pinellas County alone.

As important as it is to make this statement and to fight for the life of the unborn, I am also aware that there will be many who will come to Church that weekend and will be upset by the reminder of abortion in their own lives. Whatever degree of culpability they may have had, and that is not as great for those who were forced into an abortion by those they respected, the sight of the crosses will make them feel as though they should not be here.

If you or anyone you know and love have suffered the trauma of abortion, you need to know that you do belong here. In fact, we need you to support life, protect the unborn, and keep others from suffering as you have suffered. If you need help to deal with the trauma of post abortion, our Pregnancy Center and our priests can provide or point you to the special counseling established for you which we call Project Rachel.

Please contact us for additional guidance.

God Bless You,

Father Joseph Pellegrino
