Honor Mother Teresa: Contribute to Her Life's Work
On August 26 at 6 p.m., the Catholic League will hold a rally in front of the Empire State Building to protest the decision not to honor Mother Teresa. That event is very much in keeping with the civil rights agenda of our organization. But as a Catholic entity, we also feel compelled to urge our supporters to make a contribution to groups which embody the principles which Mother Teresa fought for all her life. Mother Teresa was a champion of the culture of life. Crisis Pregnancy Centers, which address women contemplating an abortion, are very much in keeping with her mission. So are programs like Project Rachel: they work with women who have had an abortion. To find the name and address of these organizations in the tri-state area, see below. We urge everyone to make a donation to one or more of these groups; we have also listed Mother Teresa's order, the Missionaries of Charity, and an order of nuns dedicated to her work, the Sisters of Life.
