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.

Planned Parenthood Annual Report Shows It Killed 374,155 Babies in Abortions

It was another record year for the abortion giant Planned Parenthood. Although Planned Parenthood bills itself as a woman's health organization, in reality, it is little more than an abortion business. And its own annual report that that the nation's biggest abortion company received a record amount of taxpayer funding even as it killed almost 375,000 babies in abortions. [...]

Under Four More Years of Joe Biden Increasing Numbers of Unborn Babies Would Die and their Mothers Would Suffer

WASHINGTON - On Tuesday, Joe Biden announced that he is running for reelection because he wants to "finish the job." "Joe Biden wants to 'finish the job' which means the killing of more unborn children," stated Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life (NRL). "If Joe Biden wins, babies will lose."

Pro-Life Officials Have a Duty to Resolve a Crisis Pro-Life Laws Didn't Create

Those in positions of authority should make it clear that abortion laws allow immediate treatment of life-threatening conditions.

On August 23, 2022, Amanda Zurawski of Austin, Texas, went to the hospital with a life-threatening pregnancy complication. She received terrible treatment from medical providers. When an expectant mother’s water breaks just shy of 18 weeks of pregnancy — as happened to Zurawski — the standard of medical care includes immediately offering to deliver the baby because that condition places the mother at risk of death or serious bodily harm.

STORY HIGHLIGHT

We rejected abortion, and our son Edmund has been a blessing and an inspiration

On February 10, 2022, my husband and I were told that our 13-week old baby had a 5% chance of survival due to a cystic hygroma, a build-up of fluid most often found on the back of a baby’s neck in-utero.

And here we are at 9 months old and Edmund continues to be such a fighter! Through all of the trials that he has endured, he never fails to have a smile on his face and find joy in even the smallest things in life.

EDUCATION

What can men do to help end abortion?

Isn't abortion a "women's issue"? That's what people say. Many men feel powerless. They are often told that they aren't even allowed to speak about it. The truth is that men are absolutely essential. Abortion can't be stopped without them.

Here’s how men can make a difference:

(1) Support women and children.

(2) Tell stories.

(3) Get involved in the pro-life movement.

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.”
