The Eleventh Annual Archbishop’s Gospel of Life Prayer Breakfast
will be hosted by the St. Louis Chapter of Legatus on Wednesday, May 6, 2020, at the Ritz-Carlton in Clayton.
Archbishop Robert J. Carlson will be the keynote speaker in concurrence with his 50th anniversary of his Ordination to the Priesthood. Ordained in 1970 for the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis, he earned a master’s degree in divinity from St. Paul Seminary in 1976 and a licentiate in canon law from the Catholic University of America in 1979. His episcopal Ordination was as an auxiliary bishop for his home archdiocese in 1984, and he went on to serve as Bishop of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, (1994-2005) and the Bishop of Saginaw, Michigan, (2005-2009), prior to being installed as Archbishop of St. Louis on June 10, 2009.
The morning will begin with the Regina Coeli and the Rosary at 6:00 a.m., followed by Holy Mass celebrated by Most Reverend Mark S. Rivituso, a full-service hot breakfast, and the keynote address. The final blessing by Archbishop Carlson to conclude the event will be at 9:00 a.m. Your organization, parish or school is encouraged to purchase a table of ten for $350 to join Archbishop Carlson, Bishop Rivituso, and various members of the Archdiocese of St. Louis to participate in this prayerful and life-affirming event.
