DEACON FOR LIFE

Were there to be no support in the whole history of ethical and moral thought, were there no acknowledged confirmation from medical science, were the history of legal opinion to the contrary, we would still have to conclude on the basis of God's Holy Word that the unborn child is a person in the sight of God. He is protected by the sanctity of life graciously given to each individual by the Creator, Who alone places His image upon man and grants them any right to life which they have.

From the Friars eLetter: The Day After the March For Life

The Day After the March For Life

Despite the snow and freezing temperatures, an impressive number of pro-life people made the trek to Washington D.C. for the annual March For Life. We marched on the anniversary of the tragic 1973 Supreme Court decision, Roe v. Wade. It is hard to describe the joyful and energetic spirit of the marchers as they stood up & spoke out in defense of the dignity of all human life - womb to tomb.

One thing you need to know is that this has become a huge youth event! I have attended every March since 1993 and at 41 years old I felt like an old man out there. It is only a matter of time... the future is ours because truth always triumphs over lies; good always triumphs over evil; the light always triumphs over the darkness.
