St. Patrick's Respect Life Ministry

Life! What A Beautiful Choice!

Ministry Goals:

• The continuing educating of the parish members on Life issues; that all parish members will acquire or enhance their basic attitude of respect for all human life and the belief in the inherent dignity of that human life, regardless of the age, race, sex, abilities, dependence or health of such human individual.


• The ongoing informing of parish members on current protective legislation and/or additional attacks upon human life regarding which individuals may take such action as lobbying lawmakers by letter or phone; or letters to editors or corporations.


• The encouragement of parishioners to participate in public activities, such as: praying in front of Planned Parenthood; attending prayer rallies, educational forums; also, parish or diocesan functions which support Life.


• The encouragement of parishioners to increase their knowledge of the facts surrounding the Life issues; offering private prayers and fasting on a regular basis on behalf of Life.
