Father Stephen Imparrato of Priests for Life will speak on “The Eucharist as the Basis for Pro-life Activism” at UD’s Science Center Auditorium.  A priest of the Diocese of Sante Fe, Father Imbarrato is a well-known speaker and pro-life activist. Involved in procuring a girlfriend’s abortion as a young man, he was an activist and speaker with Lifenet of New Jersey before entering the seminary. As a seminarian, he founded  St. Gerard’s Center for Life in Hartford, CT, and was national coordinator for Seminarians for Life. While a deacon, he was the first man to offer testimony for the Silent No More Awareness Campaign. Since his ordination, Father Imparrato founded Project Defending Life and many of its associated ministries, including the Holy Innocents Chapel, which holds Mass and a Eucharistic procession to a Planned Parenthood abortion business twice a week. The founder of ProtestAbq, he has worked full-time for Priests for Life since 2015. Earlier this fall he was arrested for a pro-life protest in Virginia.
