Pro-Life Ministry

At Our Lady of the Rosary, the Pro-Life Ministry is rooted in the Catholic Church’s unwavering belief in the dignity and sanctity of every human life — from conception to natural death. Guided by the Gospel and the teachings of the Church, we seek to build a culture of life through prayer, compassion, outreach and community support.

We believe that every human life is a precious gift from God and deserves to be treated with dignity, love, and respect.

How We Support Pro-Life

Our ministry participates in a variety of pro-life efforts that promote prayer, support, and outreach, including:

  • Weekly prayer and reflection at the parish
  • Participation in peaceful public prayer vigils
  • Support for local pregnancy resource centers
  • Parish-wide collections and outreach projects
