Dear David,
It's been a while since the Jerome Lejeune Foundation in the United States has communicated with you personally and with the public at large. Early last year we decided to slow down, reflect on our work in America, and assess our next steps. I'm humbled to inform you that I have been appointed the President of the Foundation in the United States.
News and announcements will follow, but today I'm very excited to inform you about two upcoming events which will involve the presence of Madame Jerome Lejeune with us in the United States.
Join us at the University of Notre Dame on Saturday, April 29th, 2017 for the Notre Dame Evangelium Vitae Medal ceremony!
Every year the University of Notre Dame Center for Ethics and Culture confers the Notre Dame Evangelium Vitae Medal. And this year, the award will be granted to the Jerome Lejeune Foundation.
"The Evangelium Vitae Medal is our nation's most important lifetime achievement award for heroes in the pro-life movement, honoring those whose outstanding efforts have served to proclaim the Gospel of Life by steadfastly affirming and defending the sanctity of human life from its earliest stages. Announced annually on Respect Life Sunday (the first Sunday of October), the Notre Dame Evangelium Vitae Medal consists of a specially commissioned medal and $10,000 prize, which is presented at a spring banquet."
