PORT CLINTON—The Respect Life ministries of Port Clinton Immaculate Conception and Marblehead St. Joseph are sponsoring a program to explain the science behind stem cell research.

The event begins at 6:30 p.m. March 8 with wine and cheese refreshments at the Immaculate Conception gymnasium at 414 Madison St. The audio-visual program features radio and television host Bill Schneeberger.

A native of the Cleveland area, Mr. Schneeberger is a board member of Hail Holy Queen Communications and Walking On Water Radio and is a frequent guest on Catholic radio and television shows. He is a member of “Do Not Harm: The Coalition of Americans for Research Ethics.”

After learning of the plight of frozen embryos that would likely be used for embryonic stem cell research, Mr. Schneeberger discovered the life-saving and life-giving benefits of adult stem cell research (ASCR) and began lecturing about the benefits of this research and therapy.

Child care is available during the program.
