WORD OF LIFE
“Without a foundational, practical formation, it is difficult
for our consciences to guide us well in concrete situations. As Catholics, we have the immense gift of the teaching authority of the Catholic Church and can turn to it for help forming our consciences. For example, learning about Christian moral principles, reading the Catechism of the Catholic Church, or researching what the Church says about a challenging teaching will help us grow in knowledge of the truth.”
USCCB Secretariat of Pro-Life Activities, “Understanding Conscience"
May the Holy Spirit strengthen God’s people to embrace and protect the precious gift of human life; We pray to the Lord.
“Do not abandon yourselves to despair. We are the Easter people and hallelujah is our song.”
~St. Pope John Paul II
