From January 13th through the 21st, Chapelle celebrates Pro-Life Week. We keep the lives of babies who have died as a result of abortion in mind during this week by partaking in activities such as guessing the faculty's baby photos, a scavenger hunt, a baby supply drive, praying the rosary in the grotto, and wearing our Pro-Life t-shirts.
Pro-Life Week allows Chapelle students and faculty to not only enjoy the many events but also take time to pray for babies who have died due to abortion. The activities that we do all have a meaning and reason behind them. Each of these experiences reminds us that all lives are valuable and made in the image of the Lord. For example, our chips can partake in events such as rosary in the grotto and a baby scavenger hunt. During the scavenger hunt, students search around the courtyard for the golden baby Jesus in the same way we search for him in our everyday lives. Also, our chips celebrate Pro-Life Week by praying the rosary in the grotto to pray for all lives taken by abortion.
Furthermore, we would like to mention some impactful quotes from faculty and students received throughout this week. Mrs. Lannan, Director of Campus Ministry, gave some insightful words, saying the importance of Pro-Life Week is "To educate our school on what it means to be Pro-Life and to encourage our students who are striving to fight for pro-life rights!"
Also, a quote we received from a Chapelle student is, "Pro-life is very meaningful to me because it is the protection of all human life. No matter how insignificant people may view the life that's being protected, it truly shows how valued and important every life is." Shelby Wells '27. In conclusion, Pro-Life Week allows students and faculty to become educated on Pro-Life, enjoy fun activities, and understand that every life is valuable.
