There was a presentation on Tuesday evening, October 24, 2017, at Church of Saint Leo the Great (Lincroft, NJ), to a young woman, Kerry Bates (student at Red Bank Catholic) for her design for “Respect Life”.

We converted the design to lapel pins, and working with the Knight of Columbus Father McGivney Council No. 6392, the Council has been selling the pins at some of the area Churches to raise funds for Monmouth County Birthright and awareness for respecting life of the unborn.
