 At the origin

of every human life

there is not something

haphazard or chance,

but a loving plan of God.

~ Pope Benedict XVI

Your students showed a tremendous amount of enthusiasm and interest in protecting the vulnerable. It was clear to me that they were deeply interested in understanding the scope of abortion's effects on a national and international level, and wanted to work to help expectant mothers in the Twin Cities give life to their unborn.

-Maria (Weiring) Pedersen

of The Catholic Spirit      

 

"Human rights are not

a privilege conferred

by government.

They are every

human being’s entitlement

by virtue of his humanity.

The right to life

does not depend,

and must not be declared

to be contingent,

on the pleasure

of anyone else, not even

a parent or a sovereign.


~ Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta
