On Saturday 6th September over ten thousand Pro-Lifers joined the March for Life in London. You can read a report here.
Now Richard
Keane, a former Good Counsel intern, will run a half marathon to help raise
funds for our life saving work. Here is what Richard had to say in a talk he
gave in his local Parish, please read what he said and then support our work
and his efforts.
“I'm running the Potters Half Marathon to raise £2,000 for the Good Counsel, a remarkable Pro-Life organisation where I was proud to intern.
For over 28 years, the Good Counsel Network has provided life- changing support to mothers and families in vulnerable situations- offering compassionate counselling, practical financial and housing aid, spiritual care through Masses, and even essential baby items to help mothers choose life.
Their work has
helped save over 4,000 babies, and every donation goes directly to helping
their mission. Walking alongside women in crisis with love and dignity, the
Good Counsel Network offers a beacon of hope where it's needed most.
I spent nearly
eight months as an intern for the Good Counsel Network, finishing in May this year.
During that time, I witnessed the incredible efforts that staff and volunteers
go to fulfil their mission, and I had the privilege of being involved in the
day to day running of the Good Counsel. I prayed outside abortion centres,
offering leaflets to passers-by, with a particular focus on vulnerable mothers.
I also offered counsel to these mothers and their families during sessions in
the Good Counsel office. As I mentioned before, they provide practical, as well
as psychological and spiritual help.”
