From the moment of conception we are all \u201cfearfully and wonderfully made\u201d (Psalm 139) to know, love and serve God. From before birth God knows and loves us: \u201cBefore I formed you in the womb I knew you.\u201d (Jeremiah 1:5). The Church teaches that \u201chuman life must be respected and protected absolutely from the moment of conception.\u201d (Catechism 2270). In our Archdiocese, Pro-Life covers issues at the beginning and end of life: the unborn, their mothers, the disabled, the aged & dying. In our Parish we pray for unborn children and their mothers and support pro-life organisations with donations and activities.<\/p>\n
