Respect Life Sunday

Sunday, October 7th is Respect Life Sunday!  Pray that our country recognizes and affirms the dignity of human life from the womb to the tomb. 

The Church's Teaching on Life:  The sexual urge in man has a natural tendency to develop into love simple because the two objects affected, with their different sexual attributes, physical and psychological, are both people.  The sexual urge does not fully determine human behavior but leaves room for the free exercise.  (Pope John Paul II, Love and Responsibility, p. 49-50)

How to Help:  On Sunday, October 21st, MOMMAS House is hosting a baby shower from 1 - 5 pm.  Please bring a donation to 500 Adams St., West Hempstead. 

How to Get Help:  Interested in Natural Family Planning, the scientific, natural, and hormone-free methods to conceive or postpone pregnancy?  On October 25th, 2012 at St. Agnes Cathedral Parish Center from 10 am to 12 noon or Monday, October 29th, 2012 at the Seminary of the Immaculate Conception from 7 pm to 9 pm, the Respect Life Office is hosting a Natural Family Planning Overview.  For more information or to register, please call 516-678-5800 ext. 626 or visit drvc.org/respectlife
