The Ministry seeks to promote the sacredness of life from conception to natural death within our parishes and our community. Members sponsor and arrange education on various issues and promote grassroots action by parishioners in cooperation with the Pregnancy Care Center, A Woman's Concern, the Knights of Columbus, the Massachusetts Citizens for Life, and the Archdiocesan Pro-Life Dicastery. The ministry regularly conducts a January Baby Bottle Drive in support of the Pregnancy Care Center and A Woman's Concern, and the Walk For Life in June.

“Life is sacred. Life is a mystery. Life must be protected, nurtured, respected. The Gospel of Life is the centerpiece of the Church’s social teaching…It is our task to witness to the truth that love, compassion and solidarity can build a just society that will be safer for the poor, the unborn and those on the periphery.” Seán Cardinal O’Malley, OFM Cap, Pro-Life Homily - 1/23/20
What does it mean to be “pro-life”?
In a special way, we are called to provide care to the most vulnerable and marginalized among us which includes the unborn, the terminally ill, those with severe disabilities, those on death row, and refugees and migrants around the world who have been displaced by war, famine and civil unrest.
