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.

News from Rimenze Refugee Camp in South Sudan, 2 Million Children starving
I just donated, how about you? 😎

Dear John,
We're
incredibly grateful for good friends like you. Today, I'm sharing an
update from the Rimenze refugee camp, where we're working hand in hand
with the local Catholic church. Our team on the ground says:
We
are providing children with life-saving treatment every day for
malaria, upper respiratory infections, malnutrition, and diarrhea. We
are caring for displaced pregnant women. We're tracing lost family
members, trying to locate relatives for many of the traumatized children
who arrived alone. By the grace of God, we're doing everything we can,
but the situation is critical and gets worse every day.
The reality of the refugee camp is heartbreaking. When we met Kazima she told us, "My baby is my hope. I don't want her to die."
I’m
reaching out to you because our faith calls us to stand with the
innocent, wherever they are. While your gift is helping many, two
million children are on the brink of starvation.
Your
support is saving lives in places like Rimenze. Our Catholic brothers
and sisters in South Sudan are counting on us. Please be as generous as
you can, and join us as we pray for peace.
