On January 22nd 2009 the Catholic Daughters of the Americas
Padre Pedro Bard #2016 (Regent: Tina Saenz) asked the community
and parish members to join them and the Fourth Degree Knights of Columbus
and all Catholic organizations to march from the First State Bank
of San Diego to St Francis De Paula Catholic Church in complaince with
our National Catholic Daughters cry for support on the same day they marched on
Washington D.C. Many joined us and the support for saving unborn children in our
community was unbelievable. While we marched with our banners, Father Benito
Retortillo (our parish priest) led the followers in a rosary dedicated for the saving
of the lives of so many unborn babies. Mass was held after the march and each
organization came forward and made resolutions to help save lives.
Pictures of the march which were published in the Duval County Picture
Sunday Newspaper will be avaiable soon. Thank you
people of San Diego and surronding areas for a successful event.
On March 16, 2009 the Padre Pedro Bard#2016 Catholic Daughters assisted with
the Healing Mass brought to us by Reverend Glenn J. Fontana. Information for
