Pro-Life Committee

Our group promotes the pro-life teachings of the Catholic Church.  We seek to foster an appreciation for the dignity of human life by praying for the protection of all human life from conception to natural death, educating parishioners on issues pertaining to the right to life, supporting parishioners to face the challenges that threaten the dignity of the human person, most especially their most precious God-given gift of life.  We assist agencies which support pregnant unmarried women in their choice to keep, rather than abort, their babies and poor families during the first few years of life.  Some activities include:  Pro-Life Rosary, March for Life, Baby Shower, Carnation Sale and participation in Diocesan Pro-Life Gatherings.
