Right to Life Banquet Lake County Right to Life will host its 44th annual fundraising banquet on Friday, May 19, at the Avalon Manor in Merrillville. The event will begin at 7 p.m. and conclude at 9 p.m. The keynote speaker will be Andrew Mullally, M.D., of Credo Family Medicine in Fort Wayne. Dr. Mullally will address the topic of euthanasia, specifically physicianassisted suicide, and its impact on society. “I feel compelled to resist the push for physician-assisted suicide because it not only undermines the moral legitimacy and fundamental ethic of the practice of medicine, but also grossly marginalizes the vulnerable in our society,” said Dr. Mullally. “I firmly believe that as a physician it is my duty to fight against this for the good of my patients and our country.” Attendees will receive dinner, dessert, and be invited to help support pro-life efforts in Northwest Indiana. The banquet is LCRTL’s primary fundraising event, and serves to reach out to new donors and sponsors, as well as recognize outstanding achievements within the pro-life community. Seats are available for both organizational sponsors and individual donors. Gifts are appreciated, and can be made one time or monthly. Ad space in the program book is available to sponsors and underwriters. Requests for ads must be received by May 10. The registration deadline is May 12. Reserve your seats today by calling the LCRTL office at (219) 838-1138 or via email to office@lakecortl.org Don’t miss the opportunity to learn about this critical issue of our time, and how it can affect all of us.
