RESPECT FOR LIFE

“We are called to create a society capable of recognizing the dignity of every person and sharing the gift that each person is to the other”–  Pope Francis

This important pillar of the Catholic Church emphasizes our call at Catholics to respect, love, and protect every phase of life.

See Life Chain, Baby Shower or Mother's Day / Father's Day for more information.

Walking with Moms in Need is a nationwide, parish-based initiative to increase support for pregnant and parenting mothers in need. It works to ensure that any woman who finds herself unexpectedly pregnant, or parenting in difficult circumstances, can turn to her local Catholic Church and be connected with the resources she needs. Volunteers walk with moms throughout the motherhood journey, offering them authentic Christian friendship and ongoing support.

We ask each person/ family to name their baby and supply us that name and your
e-mail address or phone number so you can receive a monthly e-mail or text message reminder of what your baby is capable of and stages of growth.

If you did not sign up and would like to participate, you can sign up on the clipboard outside the chapel on the bottom shelf of our display. 

Our beloved, beatified Archbishop Fulton Sheen was known to have encourage spiritual adoption of an unborn child. This is done by praying for a particular but unknown child’s life to be spared abortion. This is a perfect opportunity for families and individuals to pray daily or weekly for nine months on behalf of an unborn child who is in danger of abortion. Churches worldwide host nine month spiritual adoption prayer programs that end with some type of celebration.

Bishop Fulton Sheen’s Spiritual Adoption Prayer:

Your witness really can make a difference!

“Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love, but to use any violence to get what they want. 
This is why the greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion…
And if we accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another?”  
St. Teresa of Calcutta
