The Saint Catharine Respect Life Ministry works to promote the dignity and value of every human person from conception to natural death. We strive to do this through prayer, education, and practical support to women facing unplanned pregnancy.
The Ministry is lead by Pam O’Neil, Ursula Sarko, and Gina Hinterschied, and we invite all parishioners to join us in this mission.
If you would like to get involved and be added to our email list of “ helpers” please contact Ursula Sarko, ursulasarko@gmail.com

40 Days for Life is an internationally coordinated 40 day campaign that aims to end abortion locally through prayer and fasting, community outreach, and a peaceful all-day vigil in front of abortion businesses. We pray that, with God's help, this will mark the beginning of the end of abortion in our city- and beyond.
