The objectives of the Parish Respect Life Committee are to:
* Coordinate parish implementation of the annual Respect Life Program, promoting it to agencies and organizations in the parish, especially the school and religious education programs; and encourage parish discussion groups to use the program as a basis for their discussions.
* Promote and assist pregnancy counseling and comprehensive maternity services, as well as post-abortion counseling and reconciliation programs, and make these well known in the parish and local community.
* Develop or adopt, where feasible, a parish based ministry to pregnant women and their children.
* Encourage and support parishioners’ involvement in services to help those who are chronically ill, disabled, or dying and their families.
* Sponsor programs of prayer in the parish to pray for mothers of the unborn children, for those who are dying, for those who are disabled, for prisoners on death row and those they have harmed, and indeed for all who are in need, that the culture of death that surrounds us may be replaced by a culture of life.
* Foster awareness of the need to restore legal protection to the lives of unborn children to the maximum degree possible and to safeguard in law the lives of those who are chronically ill, disabled, or dying.
* Keep parishioners informed of upcoming important legislation; and, at the direction of the diocesan pro-life director, organize letter writing, postcard campaigns, or similar appropriate activities when important votes are expected.
