Join us in Missouri on March 7: 3rd Annual Trivia Night!

February 6, 2025 in Administrative, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Hi all – I’d like to joyfully invite you to SPL’s 3rd Annual Trivia Night! Most pro-life fundraisers are formal, somewhat serious events, often with specific political and religious themes. We designed SPL’s trivia night differently. It’s nonpartisan, nonsectarian, casual, lighthearted, and entertaining. People have been resonating with it: we’re located in Missouri and last year […]
