Proclaiming life is a gift from God from conception to natural death
The mission of the Respect Life Office is to assist in promoting and implementing the United States bishop’s Pastoral Plan for Pro-Life Activities concerning abortion, infanticide, euthanasia and related bioethical issues. This is done in four ways: education, pastoral care, public policy and prayer.
"We proclaim that human life is a precious gift from God; that each person who receives this gift has responsibilities toward God, self and others; and that society, through its laws and social institutions, must protect and nurture human life at every stage of its existence. "
— U.S. Catholic bishops, Pastoral Plan for Pro-Life Activities, November 2001
