SUMMARY:Tapas & Theology
DESCRIPTION:All women18+ are invited to 4 Son’s Brewery in Huntington Beach for fellowship and theology!  Tapas is for women who want to share their faith life in a fun\, relaxed\, and casual atmosphere. The evenings include casual conversation\, a speaker\, and small group discussion. Please RSVP!  \n\n\n\nSpecial Guest Speaker & SSJ Parishioner: Kelly Hudson first became involved in the Pro-Life movement following an incident while working on a reality television show that forced her to discover how simply standing up for our beliefs can be the difference between life and death. \n\n\n\nKelly is currently a Medical Advocate at Horizon Pregnancy Clinic\, where she offers pregnant women of all ages and backgrounds compassionate care and hope through education\, material assistance and resources\, community connections\, and spiritual guidance. \n\n\n\nIn addition\, Kelly leads a 40 Days for Life campaign in Costa Mesa\, aimed at ending abortion locally through prayer\, fasting\, community outreach\, and peaceful all-day vigils in front of abortion businesses. \n\n\n\nJoin Rhea and Kelly for a “fireside chat” as they discuss how the pro-life movement affects us all and how you can get more involved in Respect Life Month this October\, when the Catholic Church celebrates and promotes the dignity of every human life\, from conception to natural death. \n\n\n\n“I used to stand on the sidelines of the pro-life movement; now I stand on the sidewalk.” -Kelly Hudson
