The Virtue Media pro-life television ads that you viewed or heard about in your parishes a month ago have begun to hit our airwaves as of March 3, 2008. The donations from the Archdiocese of Omaha to date amount to $110,000 and broke all previous campaign records conducted by VirtueMedia in other dioceses and locations. Our Archdiocese broke records in terms of the number of donations, total of donations, and the average gift. Congratulations, good people of Omaha! If you like what you see, consider donating more to VirtueMedia so the ads can continue to air: see http://www.virtuemedia.org/ and be sure to indicate that your donation is for the Archdiocese of Omaha Campaign.
