This group seeks to bring
greater awareness to parishioners about the
sanctity of all human life. They do so by
PRAYING individually and with others for the
restoration of respect for all human life
from conception to natural death. With the
assistance of the pastor and deacons, the
group attempts to EDUCATE within the Parish
on the key life issues of abortion,
euthanasia, and assisted suicide. This
organization brings attention to the
unfortunate abortion-related decisions of
the Supreme Court and of the consequent need
to restore legal protection for the unborn
through protective legislation at both the
state and national level. This ministry ACTS
to encourage such legislation and to
encourage the election of Pro-Life
candidates. Every other year, this ministry
sponsors a 9 month long Spiritual Adoption
Program that provides information monthly on
the growth of the unborn baby, encourages
prayers for the unborn children and their
mothers, and culminates with a "baby shower"
at which gifts are collected and later
distributed to women and infants in need by
the Access Program of the Archdiocese.
