Respect Life Ministry

" The Gospel of life is at the heart of Jesus' message. Lovingly received day after day by the Church, it is to be preached with dauntless fidelity as "good news" to the people of every age and culture."

- Saint Pope John Paul II in
Evangelium Vitae
 

Central to Catholic Social Teaching is the respect for the life and dignity of the human person from conception to natural death.   

At St. Andrew's, our Respect Life Ministry offers an opportunity for persons to get involved in active pro-life ministry through prayer and outreach. Some of our activities include: 

1. Annual Baby Bottle Campaign for the Blue Ridge Women's Center
2. Annual Trip to the National March for Life and the Virginia March for Life
3. Participation in  40 Days for Life, a prayer campaign held twice a year
