Our mission is to develop a culture of life in our parish and community consistent with the teachings of the Catholic Church. We evangelize respect for life at all stages from conception to natural death through prayer, service, and education. Our goal is to increase awareness in an inclusive, non-judgmental way that promotes healing and changing of hearts.

October is Respect Life Month
-
October is celebrated in the U.S. as Respect Life Month, and the first Sunday of October is noted as Respect Life Sunday. Every year, the Church uses this time to renew its focus on human life issues. The bishops have focused on many critical concerns of the day — abortion, euthanasia, marriage and family life, capital punishment, poverty, immigration issues, chastity, natural family planning, post-abortion healing and reconciliation, the culture of life, biotechnology, children, teens, persons with disabilities, the elderly, those who are dying, and more.
