Respect Life

“When some lives, including those of the unborn, are subjected to the personal choices of others, no other value or right will be long guaranteed.”-St. John Paul II

Respect Life

The Respect Life Ministry is a call to respect the human dignity at every stage of life. We are called to create the culture of life and work against the culture of death. God's creative action is present to every human life and the source of its sacred value. Each human life remains in a relationship with God, who is the final goal of every man & woman.

​Human life is sacred because from its beginning it involves the creative action of God and it remains forever in a special relationship with the Creator, who is its sole end. God alone is the Lord of life from its beginning until its end; no one can under any circumstance claim for himself the right to directly destroy an innocent human being.-CCC, no. 2258 ​

40 Days For Life

The next 40 days for life campaign begins at the ends of September 2018
In 2007, the original 40 Days for Life leaders launched the first ever nationally coordinated 40 Days for Life campaign, spanning 89 cities in 33 states. Before long, campaigns had been hosted in all 50 states.
  • Prayer and fasting
  • Constant vigil
  • Community outreach​
This is the mission of the campaign is to bring together the body of Christ in a spirit of unity during a focused 40-day campaign of prayer, fasting, and peaceful activism, with the purpose of repentance, to seek God’s favor to turn hearts and minds from a culture of death to a culture of life,
thus bringing an end to abortion.
What is 40 Days for life?

"Today… the greatest destroyer of peace is abortion… because if a mother can kill her own child, what is left but for me to kill you and you to kill me – there is nothing in between." 
​​- Mother Teresa of Calcutta

What is the Walk For Life?

The Walk For Life is a peaceful protest against abortion, walking through San Francisco every year on or near January 22, the anniversary of Roe v. Wade when the U.S. Supreme Court decided to legalizing abortion. Walk with us! Walkers of all ages, backgrounds, races, and creeds join us every year for a joyous celebration of life.

"Only with prayer - prayer that storms the heavens for justice and mercy,
prayer that cleanses our hearts and souls - will the culture of death
that surrounds us today be replaced with a culture of life."
​-Pastoral Plan for Pro-Life Activities, U.S. Catholic Bishops

Prayer is the foundation of all that we do in defense of human life.
​Here are some pro-life prayers
