Culture of Life Conference: October 18-19, 2024 in Orlando, FL
The 37th Annual Florida Culture of Life Conference took place at the Basilica of the National Shrine of Mary, Queen of the Universe in Orlando, October 18-19, 2024.
Stay tuned for announcement of the 2025 conference dates.
Speakers delved into an array of topics - including abortion, the death penalty, end of life care, natural family planning, and walking with moms in need - aiming to enhance comprehension of the Church's teaching on the inherent dignity and worthiness of protection for all human life.
The theme for this years conference is inspired by Luke 1:38: "Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word." The Angel Gabriel's message troubled Mary, leading her into uncharted waters and a life of unimaginable risk. Yet, she was willing to embrace the risk and trust in God's invitation.
