I think we can learn a lot from the man in his front yard. He keeps prayer as his focus and relies on his faith to keep on doing what he does, asking God to be with him on his front lawn, no matter what he might face that day.

It is about seeing people who have demonstrated how to respect and cherish all lives, offering an invitation to live out prolife values in ordinary and small ways.” Our newest blog comes from Katie, a support crew missionary, who invites us to be pro-life in the “small things.”

With eyes now opened to the need and Christ-centered solutions of problems, these young adults are sent forth as “missionaries” into the rest of the formation program and into the rest of their lives, committing to live with the truth of the Gospel of life as the lens through which they see every relationship, every decision, and the world at large.
