Saint Rita Students Participate in Advocacy Day
Over four thousand Catholics converged on the Texas Capitol April 4 with bishops from the fifteen Texas dioceses to rally, pray, and meet with legislators. The goal of this event is to represent the Catholic perspective on many of the bills in legislation including pro-life issues, immigration reform, improving mental health services and the state’s foster care system, addressing human trafficking issues and other social justice concerns.
