I'm With the Band
I'm reposting this entry because the bands are now officially available, distributed by the St. Louis Archdiocesan Pro-Life Committee:
Roman Catholic seminarian Jeff Geerling and his sister Maria have come up with a bright way to display support for the cause of life: thePROLIFE wristband. Details from Jeff's site:
The color blue was chosen for these wristbands for a variety of reasons:- Blue stands for sprituality, grace and truth
- Blue is the color used by Catholics to represent Mary's humanity—her dependence on God*
- Blue is the color of the seas and of the pure sky, signifying the innocence of all the babies who are aborted daily and the hope they will attain eternal rest in Heaven
- Blue is the color for healing*; it is important for us to work towards healing the hearts of those women who have had abortions
Features of the PROLIFE Wristband
Made of the same durable silicone rubber as the LIVESTRONG wristbands
Won't easily wear or break
Completely waterproof
Stretchable, so it can fit most any wrist
Boldly proclaims you are standing up for the basic right to life for all people!
Not bad for $1. Ordering information is at the bottom of the PROLIFE wristband home page. It's a beautiful idea and I hope it takes off.
