Bishop Feehan High School junior Juliana DeSimone of Mansfield was named winner of the annual Diocese of Fall River???s Pro-Life Apostolate essay contest.?? The contest was open to the 5 Fall River diocesan high schools.??

??The theme of the contest, ???Every Life is Worth Living???, is the title of DeSimone???s essay which will be published in the diocesan newspaper, the Anchor.?? DeSimone will be formally recognized at the Diocesan Pro Life Mass on March 11 at St. Julie Billiart Church in N. Dartmouth, MA.?? As part of this honor, she will also be dining with Bishop Edgar da Cunha for lunch.

??In her 500-word essay, DeSimone writes, ??????All children of God, from the unborn to the elderly, from the weak to the broken, and everyone in between, deserve to exercise their humanity and to enjoy the precious gift of life given to them. What a seemingly complex thing, yet what a simple thing. Sharing life, enjoying life, living life. Life is deliberate, life is a gift, and every life is worth living.???????
