RESPECT LIFE MINISTRY
Respecting God's greatest gifts, from Conception to Natural Death.
This ministry promotes the sanctity of human life from conception to natural death through prayers, education and support for crisis pregnancy homes and centers. The members also participate and promote the Annual WALK FOR LIFE event in San Francisco. The unifying goal of the Respect Life office is to serve as a loving witness to the fundamental truth that every human life is sacred and worth living.
Meetings of the Respect Life Ministry
The Respect Life and The Gabriel Project Ministries currently have combined meetings on the 2nd Thursday of each month, from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., via the "Lifesize" video conferencing platform.
Events and information relative to the Respect Life Ministry alone will be presented and discussed on a quarterly basis, during the combined meetings.
Please contact the Rectory Office to express your interest in joining us.
We look forward to meeting you!
UPCOMING EVENTS
The fall 40 Days for Life prayer Vigil Campaign starts on Wednesday, 9/23/20 and continues through Sunday, 11/1/20.
St. Mary's Respect Life Ministry members are partnering with the Respect Life Ministry members of Holy Spirit Church in Fairfield to pray at the Planned Parenthood abortion business, 1325 Travis Blvd. (Fairfield), between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m., during the 40-day period.
The Church teaches Catholics that we must be faithful supporters of human life in prayer and action. Please join us to pray for and defend the Unborn persons in the womb, who have no voice to put a stop to the violence waged against them at and by abortion centers, such as Planned Parenthood.
Please click on the link below to sign up for prayer vigil slots of one hour each. (You will need to set up a login and password first; this is easy.)

Then, bring your Rosary, a face mask and a favorite pro-life prayer book to the vigil (if you have one).
Some pro-life signs will also be available to those interested in wearing/carrying them while at the abortion business.
If you have questions about the above, contact Debra Thomas of the Respect Life Ministry at (707) 761-2414
Join our "PRAYER CHAIN" with Alpha Clinics of Northern California
"No-Not-This-One" campaign....
Every time we learn of a woman considering abortion we send an anonymous text asking for prayer. Don't worry - it's not a group text so nobody else will see your number and you won't be bothered with incessant buzzing.
