(Haverstraw, N.Y. – December 15) – On Saturday, December 14, the Marian Shrine in Haverstraw-Stony Point hosted a Concert for Life, an annual benefit concert in support of the Good Counsel Homes. This network of homes in New York and New Jersey offers young mothers and their newborn children a safe, loving, and nurturing place to live. Fr. Steve Ryan, SDB, was the event’s guest of honor. He was recognized by Rockland County’s various pro-life associations for his tireless zeal in building a culture of life and empowering young people to promote and live the joy of the Gospel.

Fr. Steve is a member of the Haverstraw SDB community (the Marian Shrine, Don Bosco Retreat Center, and Reborn Young Christ) and serves as vice provincial of the New Rochelle Province.
