PRO-LIFE CATHOLICS

Our Catholic Church believes that all life is sacred, even the most vulnerable...

Human Life must be respected...

Human life must be respected and protected absolutely from the moment of conception. The Catholic Catechism teaches us that "from the first moment of his existence, a human being must be recognized as having the rights of a person - among which is the inviolable right of every innocent being to life"

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you” (Jer. 1:5). “My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately wrought in the depths of the earth” (Psalm 139:15).

WILL YOU STAND AGAINST ABORTION?

Official Church Response to Abortion

“God, the Lord of life, has entrusted to men the noble mission of safeguarding life, and men must carry it out in a manner worthy of themselves. Life must be protected with the utmost care from the moment of conception: abortion and infanticide are abominable crimes” (Vatican Council II, Gaudium et spes, n.51).

The church teaching on abortion has not changed...

Since the first century the Church has affirmed the moral evil of every procured abortion. This teaching has not changed and remains unchangeable.

Direct abortion, that is to say, abortion willed either as an end or a means, is gravely contrary to the moral law: “You shall not kill the embryo by abortion and shall not cause the newborn to perish” (Didaché, 2:2).
