Walking with Moms in Need is a nationwide, yet parish-based, initiative to increase outreach and support to pregnant and parenting mothers in need.
The goal of Walking with Moms in Need is not to reinvent the wheel or turn parishes into pregnancy centers; rather, it is about building relationships with and enhancing referrals to various local pro-life pregnancy centers.If you would like to help your parish establish a Walking With Moms in Need program, contact the
Marriage & Family Life Office at 707-566-3305.
Go to Walking With Moms in Need for more information.

An updated, in-depth Q&A on chemical abortion explains what it is, how it works, maternal risks, the FDA's actions, and the ongoing controversy surrounding it. A designed handout version is in development and will be posted soon on the same webpage. |
