Roe vs. Wade Anniversary


Today marks the 37th anniversary of the historic Roe vs. Wade Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion which has resulted in the death of over 50 million pre-born babies. The victims are not only the innocent children whose lives have been ended even before they came to see the light of day, but the mothers and fathers of these children who live with the emotional and spiritual wounds which are the consequences of the decision to abort.  

A further consequence of this legal decision is the continued unraveling of respect for human life and the dignity of the human person.  When the most innocent and the most vulnerable are left without legal protection we have taken the decisive step on a slippery slope leading inevitably to further violations of human dignity and even more widespread disregard for the sacredness of human life.

There are people in our parishes, in our communities, perhaps in our families and even fellow UW Oshkosh classmates who carry the burden of their own participation in an abortion.  They need our compassion and understanding. Rachel’s Vineyard is a weekend retreat experience offered in a confidential setting whose entire focus is healing and reconciliation.  We encourage those who are bearing the wounds of abortion, or those who may know somebody who is carrying these deep hurts to consider this opportunity to heal. http://www.rachelsvineyard.org/
Do not continue to live in the shame, fear or numbness – call Rachel’s Vineyard toll-free on their national hotline: 877 HOPE 4 ME (877-467-3463)

The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has established January 22 as a day of penance for violations to the dignity of the human person committed through abortion and of prayer for the full restoration of the legal guarantee of the right to life. Through prayer and penance, let us further build a culture of life in which the dignity of every human person is valued and every human life is protected from conception to natural death.
