Dominican Forum: The Gospel of Life presented by<br />
Br. Dominic David Maichrowicz, O.P. The series will be<br />
given on Mondays in October 5, 12, 19, and 26, 2009 at<br />
7:00 pm in the Church. Poverty, hunger, disease, violence,<br />
and war have threatened human life since the<br />
Fall. But our own time has both elevated these ancient<br />
threats to previously unimagined levels and found new<br />
ways to imperil and destroy life. How do we respond to<br />
these ever changing threats to human life especially at<br />
its most vulnerable stages?<br />
