The Respect Life ministry seeks to spread the Catholic Church’s teachings on issues that are pervasive threats to human life, such as: abortion, infanticide, euthanasia and capital punishment. In so doing, we seek to protect all stages of human life and to promote human dignity. We do this by implementing the efforts of the U.S. Bishop’s Pastoral Plan for Pro-Life Activities, which include: prayer, educational events, campaigns and charitable activities.

Lord God, you appointed Paul your apostle to preach the good news of salvation to the nations. May his example and prayers inspire the faithful of our parish to be more fully Alive in Christ.
Fill our hearts with the spirit of your charity so that we may please you in our thoughts, words and deeds and be witnesses to hope that does not disappoint.
May the prayers of St. Paul and all the saints be our constant encouragement so that we may walk worthily as disciples of your Son.
