As Catholics, we believe that human life is sacred from the moment of conception until the moment of natural death.  And, as the unborn are unable to defend themselves, they are the most vulnerable members of our society and we have an obligation to protect them.  Please consider joining us in our effort to protect life in all its stages.
 
Talk With Your Children
The sight of thousands of crosses can be very confusing for children, and many are too young to hear about the specifics of abortion.  However, they are never too young to be taught about the precious gift of life!  Please talk with them about how God knew them and loved them since before they were born, while they were still in their mother’s belly.  Talk with them about how God has a plan for every person He creates, a plan that will make this world a better place.  Talk with them about how these crosses remind us of those babies who died before they were given a chance to live out God’s plan for them.  This is a wonderful opportunity talk about the amazing gift of life and God’s love for all of us!

Pray
Please pray to rebuild a culture of life in our world!  Pray for the unborn, for mothers, for fathers, for families, for an end to poverty, for an end to abuse, for an end to abortion and euthanasia, for our leaders, for our lawmakers, for a conversion of hearts.  This world needs prayers!
