2271 Since the first century the Church has affirmed the moral evil of
every procured abortion. This teaching has not changed and remains unchangeable.
Direct abortion, that is to say, abortion willed either as an end or a means, is
gravely contrary to the moral law:
You shall not kill the embryo by abortion and shall not cause the newborn
to perish .
God, the Lord of life, has entrusted to men the noble mission of
safeguarding life, and men must carry it out in a manner worthy of
themselves. Life must be protected with the utmost care from the moment of
conception: abortion and infanticide are abominable crimes.
Catechism of the Catholic Church
Rebecca Madrigal will present
"Life
is Precious".
The presentation covers the history of human rights
abuses, science of the developing unborn child,
facts about
abortion, consequences of abortion to
the woman.
Presentation will be followed by adoration
of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament
"I believe that You, O Jesus, are in the most holy Sacrament. I love
You and desire You. Come into my heart. I embrace You. Oh, never leave me. May
the burning and most sweet power of Your love, O Lord Jesus Christ, I beseech
You, absorb my mind that I may die through love of Your love, Who were graciously
pleased to die through love of my love."
- St. Francis
