DFL
gathers each First Friday for
Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament
between 7:00 - 8:00pm in the
Church. We say a Rosary
and the Chaplet
of the Divine Mercy.
Join us!
The
Disciples for Life Pro-Life Ministry
recognizes the sanctity of human life
from conception to natural death as
we are all created in the image of
God. The ministry’s mission is to
foster a pro-life parish environment
through prayer, education, support,
legislation, and action.
Prayer:
Members participate in First Friday’s
Eucharistic Adoration, Divine Mercy
Chaplet, and Pro-Life Rosary, petitioning
God to send the Holy Spirit to enlighten
all people to preserve human life.
Education:
The ministry seeks to expand Pro-Life
awareness, promoting Catholic values
by implementing the written messages
from our Holy Father Benedict XVI,
a s well as Pope John Paul II, the
U.S. Bishops, priests, religious and
other Catholic pro-life organizations.
Support:
Financial, material and spiritual
support is offered to mothers and
fathers who have elected to give the
Gift of Life to their children.
Legislation:
The ministry actively seeks pro-life
legislation, remaining informed on
impending pro-life legislation and
taking action at all levels of government
by making known the desire to protect
all human life.
Action:
Witnessing through “non-violent” activities,
members join other Catholic pro-life
organizations at abortion mills to
pray for a change of heart as mothers
move toward ending the gift of life
in their womb.
Morning
Has Broken... Thanks for Life!
To
women who have given life to their
babies and to those beautiful children.
Since
1987 the Center has been involved in creating
new approaches for nurturing family faith.
The Center's work has a two-fold emphasis:
to develop family-friendly parish communities
and to nurture family faith at home. The Center
works with parishes to develop effective ministry
with families that builds a partnership between
the parish and the home. The Center has created
training programs and resources to assist
congregations in developing programs and reaching
families at home.
