HOW CAN I HELP BUILD A CULTURE OF LIFE?

try the 3-Ps ... the three Pro-Life Ps~ 

Pray - Protect - and Promote...

PRAY

Join the Spiritual Adoption Prayer Program

The community of St. Rita prays for the unborn children in danger of abortion and their parents. We love them all! This program begins on the weekend closest to the Feast of the Annuciation, March 25th. Through monthly bulletin features over a period of nine months we witness the development of the beautiful gift of a child that is created in God's own image. And during the Advent Season a crib is set up in the vestibule to collect baby items to celebrate the lives of each spiritually adopted infant. The drive assists needy parents with infants and small children living in the Rockford area.

PROTECT

PROMOTE
 
Get involved in your parish pro-life group. Be proactive in building a culture that truly honors each and every life by becoming more involved...
How? Here's a few ABCs...
  • Assist with pro-life projects in the parish
  • Become a sidewalk counselor or a prayer partner at the local abortion mill
  • Challenge yourself (and others) to grow in a deeper understanding of the Church's beautiful teachings that promote the sanctity of life
