Sanctity of Human Life Week is Jan. 16 - 23, 2022!
Every January, as the anniversary of the legalization of abortion comes up on Jan. 22, we pause to recognize the sanctity of every human life, especially those who are still in their mothers' wombs.
We reflect that, from the moment of conception, every human life has infinite value. "Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father" (James 1:17).
There is nothing that can take away this infinite value - not any disability, not being unwanted, not being inconvenient, nor anything else.
The US Bishops invite us all to join in the 9 Days for Life Novena:
-

40 Days for Life
Knowing that “with God, all things are possible,” people of faith and conscience unite in 40 days of prayer and fasting. Christ told us some demons can only be driven out by prayer and fasting. The two go hand in hand. Prayer keeps us rooted in the fact that it is our desire to carry out God’s will. Fasting is a sacrifice that helps us reach beyond our own limitations with God’s help.
