October is Respect Life Month. As human persons blessed with the gift of life ourselves we also maintain that every conceived human being has a right to life, and that life must be respected from the first moment of conception until natural death.As Christians we value human life because every human being is created in God’s image and is redeemed by the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore we oppose all efforts to promote abortion, euthanasia, and other threats to human life, including the death penalty and human trafficking. These threats to human life and dignity are directly opposed to our Christian and Catholic faith.
We begin our observance of Respect Life Month this weekend with our “Pennies from Heaven” campaign. Our extra change adds up to benefits for pro-life centers throughout Orange County. Thank you for your generosity.
Here are some examples of pro-life activities you could participate in:
Conference: Dialogue about the miracles God is working today in the pro life movement with Kathleen Eaton, founder and CEO of Birth Choice, and Dr. Paul Selecky of Hoag Hospital
Where: St. Bonaventure Parish Center
16400 Springdale St.Huntington Beach, CA
When: Oct. 13, 7 PM
40 Days for Life: Pray and fast for an end to abortion during the period Sept. 23-Nov. 7
Fr. Hildebrand
