It appears that yesterday President Obama said some words at the National Prayer Breakfast that betray his steadfast support for abortion rights which extends even to killing those children who happen to survive abortion attempts. He said: There is no God who condones taking the life of an innocent human being. This much we know. Pray that these words sink … Read More
Pray for our President and Pro-Life Pilgrims!
Now more than ever our new president, officially sworn in yesterday, needs to be prayed for. All indications are that, with the cooperation of Congress, he will work to actively advance the culture of death in the American government beginning with, many believe, an order to abolish the Mexico City policy, thereby allowing U.S. foreign aide to be given to … Read More

Everyone is turning to prayer this election year. That includes the new group Sacrifices for Life whose purpose is to promote the making of daily sacrifices to establish a culture of life in America – to help turn the tide against abortion and other anti-life practices that are threatening to destroy the family, and ultimately, society itself.

So she really fought to remain here as long as she could! And that’s just like her, too. Mom and I visited her … Read More
In Memoriam
I have said before that we cannot celebrate the great gift of life without also meditating upon the mystery of death. Today we remember those who have given their lives for the cause of freedom, the protection of their country and their fellow man. In a very special way today I remember Lance Cpl. Darin Settle, a very good friend … Read More

A Perfect Pro-Life Prayer
Last week’s Our Sunday Visitor had an excellent article (subscribers only) on the Angelus prayer and its possible contribution to the “pro-life arsenal.” The Angelus is a prayer typically repeated three times a day – 6 a.m., noon, and 6 p.m. – recalling the conception and birth of Jesus Christ.
