2007 Pro-Life Conference in Moncton to Feature Fun and Special Events!
Moncton Right to Life is hosting the 2007 national conference next October 25 to 27 at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in downtown Moncton, New Brunswick. Here is the latest news from conference organizers about what to look forward to:
•• Besides a host of 13 top speakers, our 2007 national pro-life conference will feature a number of special activities.
•• Since Moncton is situated by the Atlantic coast, and nearby Shediac is the "lobster capital of the world," Thursday morning will feature a 2.5 hour seaside cruise around beautiful Shediac Bay, with onboard lobster lunch. The boat is heated and sheltered from the elements, the crew will regale us with lobster tales, so come on board! The cost is $60. Limited seating.
•• For early bird registrants (by Sept. 25), you will have a chance to win a cold pack of Atlantic lobster for you to bring back home (6 or more lobster, $100 value)!
•• Since Moncton and region is home to a large Acadian population, our conference will have a certain Acadian flavour. Some Acadian singers, Chorale Ste. Therese, will perform on Friday evening. Renowned Acadian singer, poet and philosopher Donat Lacroix will sing at the Saturday banquet. And the nearby (walking distance) spiritual centre for Acadians, the Notre Dame de l'Assomption Cathedral, will be the site of daily masses for pro-life intentions.
•• Another special activity is the Friday prayer vigil at nearby Georges Dumont Hospital, one of two hospital abortion sites in New Brunswick.
Weather note: Fall is one of the most beautiful times to visit the Maritimes. Typically lots of sun, and our fall colours are spectacular!
