October is Respect Life Month
In the United States, the Catholic Church observes October as Respect Life Month. As Catholics, we are called to preserve all human life, especially those lives that are most vulnerable. Pray along with Fr. Mark Baron, MIC for an end to legalized abortion, and find out more about upcoming Rachel's Vineyard retreats here at the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy in Stockbridge, MA from Fr. Anthony Gramlich, MIC.
"40 Days for Life" is a powerful, peaceful prayer campaign that combines prayer and fasting, prayer vigils, and community outreach to help save lives of unborn children in danger of being aborted. Visit www.40daysforlife.com.
