“Respect Life” is more than just a catchphrase.

Today is Respect Life Sunday. “Respect Life” is more than just a catchphrase. It needs to be a way of living. Respect life. Not just in the womb, but everywhere, at every time, in all circumstances — within our families, our communities, our schools, and the places we work and do business. It means treating every life with dignity, and honoring every life as a gift. By changing how we talk about life, how we treat life, how we teach life to our children, we will begin to change hearts and minds. Doing that moment by moment, we will begin to change our culture. And heart by heart we can change the world.
