"There is a wonderful
unity, a unity of conviction that life is a gift from God and we must
do everything to protect it. To be a pro-life Catholic is a task for
us all, but also a great gift because we recognize that life is indeed
a pearl of great price given to us from the loving hands of our Creator. "
The Respect Life Committee at Sacred Heart of Jesus proclaims with "Gratitude
and Joy...the incomparable dignity of man (and) share(s) this message
with everyone... We (aspire to) bring the Gospel of life to the
hearts of every man and woman and to make it penetrate every part
of society." (The Gospel of Life JPII)
We
proclaim the Gospel of Life to the parish and the Boulder community
through legislative awareness, prayer (especially the rosary and
Eucharistic adoration), and by being a liaison between Sacred Heart
parish and various pro-life organizations. We side with the dignity
of man in opposition to abortion, euthanasia, capital punishment,
cloning, and embryonic stem cell research.
Everyone is invited to participate in monthly meetings and/or monthly peaceful, non-confrontational prayer hours outside Boulder area abortion clinics.
"With humility
and gratitude we know that we are the people of life and for life
and this is how we present ourselves to everyone."(JPII)

Respect Life effort, please contact the Parish Center at 303-442-6158.
