Pro-life work

In being visible as a pro-life priest we can be active in many ways. I'm blessed to be able to go to seminaries, visiting men who are already pro-life and give them practical knowledge about what works on the parish level from my experience and others I've known. Another way is by leading prayer for those who are counseling or protesting at abortion mills. Prayer is so important as the spiritual battle around abortion is so intense; we need to remain close to His heart so ours can be channeled in the right direction, not growing bitter, despondent, or vengeful. Also, once we are assigned to a parish it is not only important to preach the Gospel of Life from the ambo, but to hold meetings and discussions whenever possible to educate and energize parishioners to live this teaching.
