All are invited to attend “The National Mass for Terri's Day” on Friday, March 30th, 2012 at 5 pm at the Ave Maria Oratory.
The oratory has been the site of the annual mass, which is normally celebrated on March 31 -- "Terri's Day" -- since 2009.
The International Day of Prayer and Remembrance for Terri Schindler Schiavo, and All of Our Vulnerable Brothers and Sisters (“Terri's Day”) was established in 2007 and is observed each year on or around March 31, the date of Terri's death.
The purpose of this day is to foster education, prayer, and activism regarding discrimination against the cognitively disabled, and advocacy for people in situations similar to what Terri and her family faced.
