Annual Adoption Mass

November is National Adoption Month. Every year, the RLA joins with Good Shepherd Children and Family Services to coordinate a celebration for those who have been involved in any way with adoption, a gift twice given.

  • women seeking options for unplanned or crisis pregnancies
  • people and couples seeking children to complete their families
  • foster families and agencies involved in the placement and protection of children
  • children who have been adopted

An annual adoption mass is celebrated by the Archbishop at the Cathedral Basilica each November. Visit the RLA Calendar for this year's date.
