ABOUT

Walking with Moms in Need

wwmin-flowers.png

Pregnant and parenting moms in need are in our parishes and our neighborhoods. As Pope Francis reminds us, our parishes need to be “islands of mercy in the midst of a sea of indifference.” Everyone in the parish community should know where to refer a pregnant woman in need.

​

The 25th anniversary of Evangelium vitae gave us a wonderful opportunity to begin to assess, expand, and communicate resources to pregnant moms and families in need. Parishes are invited, through the support of their bishop and pastor, to join this nationwide effort entitled, Walking with Moms in Need.

 

To support this initiative, the Pro-Life Committee is developing educational, pastoral, and action-oriented resources for parish use, including:

​

  • Tools for documenting an inventory of local resources for pregnant mothers in need.

​

  • Ideas for improving parish responses.

​

  • Prayers for building a culture of life and a civilization of love.

​

  • Reflections on the teachings of Evangelium vitae,
    Evangelii gaudium, and Laudato si'.
