Participate in the annual Fast and Vigil to Abolish the Death Penalty. From June 29th to July 2nd, death penalty abolitionists (including CMN!) from around the country will gather at the steps of the U.S. Supreme Court to call for an end to executions in the United States.
More than 25,000 Catholics and people of faith have already pledged to educate, advocate, and pray for an end to the death penalty. Will you answer the call?
