Pray For and Support Life!
January 22 is the Day of Prayer for Legal Protection of Unborn Children
While the Catholic Church celebrates life every month of the year, the month of January is especially important in the celebration of life, because this is also the month when we are reminded of our challenges. It was on January 22, 1973 when the Supreme Court ruled that the constitution of the United States protects a pregnant woman’s liberty to choose to have an abortion. Since then, countless lives have been lost and ruined. As followers of Christ we can be a place of refuge through our words, the care we provide and by sharing the gospel that brings life. Below are some suggestion on how you can pray for and support life!
