RESPECT LIFE CORNER
Perseverance is the Key – The brutal statistic of around 57
million children being denied the right to life in the over 40
years since abortion was legalized in the U.S. is not only
overwhelming, but there is the temptation to despair and
wonder whether the struggle is winnable. Learn, Act, Connect, Pray: The answer is a resounding “yes” providing we
are prepared to make some sacrifice, commit ourselves
and persevere. Young adults and high school students are
increasingly more pro-life than ever before. Pray for all
who do not embrace the rights of the unborn that they
come to know and treasure the value of every person
Worldwide Marriage Encounter
In today’s second reading St Paul talks about the fact that
married couples have to deal with the anxieties of the
world. Sometimes those stresses can really have a negative
impact on our marriages. Get away from all those worldly
anxieties and take time to just focus on God and each other
by making a Worldwide Marriage Encounter Weekend. The
next Worldwide Marriage Encounter Weekend is February 6
– 8. To register or for more information call 314-469-7317
