The plaque, which features the inscription “Saint Teresa, help us promote a culture of life,” was funded by the Knights of Columbus Council 9560.

Approximately 75 people attended the Oct. 16 blessing service, which was led by Father Mark Lawlor, pastor, and organized by the parish’s Respect Life Committee and Knights of Columbus council.

Two Missionaries of Charity sisters and Sisters of St. Vincent de Paul were among the attendees.
