Holy hour for the Dignity of Human Life
Wednesday, 13 November, 5:30pm
Join the Catholic Bishops of England and Wales as they pause in the middle of their autumn plenary meeting to kneel in front of the Blessed Sacrament to pray for the dignity of human life and to uphold a culture of life in our countries.​
They will gather in the Chapel of the Holy Family at Hinsley Hall, Leeds, to unite in compassionate action in light of the bill passing through parliament that seeks to legalise assisted suicide. The holy hour will end with Evening Prayer before a concluding Benediction.

Pray with the Bishops
We would encourage Catholics, in their churches or in their homes, to join in prayerful solidarity with the Bishops to create a powerful moment of prayer throughout our lands promoting the intrinsic dignity of every person.​
