Mary's Shelter in the News

Thank you to our great friend and President of the March for Life, Jeanne Mancini, for the Mary's Shelter shout out on Fox News last night.

Through her work and heart for life, Jeanne is an inspiration. Also, in the video which aired last night, is one of our most beloved past residents, Keiana. Keiana has remained a close friend of Mary's Shelter and an advocate for the pro life mission. She was also one of our past resident speakers at our Soiree. Thank you Jeanne and Keiana for all you do for the sake of the unborn.

LIFE IS SACRED

An example of the traditional magisterial teaching which indicates that it is never morally licit to intentionally kill a child through abortion in order to “save the life of its mother” comes from the teaching of Pope Pius XII:

“Every human being, even the infant in the mother's womb, has the right to life immediately from God, not from the parent or any human society or authority. Therefore, there is no man, no human authority, no science, no medical, eugenic, social, economic or moral ‘indication’ that can show or give valid juridical title for direct deliberate disposition concerning an innocent human life-which is to say, a disposition that aims at its destruction either as an end in itself or as the means of attaining another end that is perhaps in no way illicit itself. Thus, for example, to save the life of the mother is a most noble end, but the direct killing of the child as a means to this end is not licit.”
