The Respect Life Grant Fund is made possible by the Diocese of Ogdensburg Respect Life Second Collection held in our parishes in January, commemorating the anniversary date of the Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade decision of 1973 which legalized abortion in our nation. In 2022, this collection will be held the weekend of January 22/23. The purpose of the fund is to support & encourage efforts that affirm & promote the respect of human life from fertilization to natural death.

The following is a link to a letter issued by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith Samaritanus bonus (The Good Samaritan) which speaks to the care of persons in the critical and terminal phases of life. Further materials will be coming from the USCCB Pro-Life Secretariat this Fall. It is asked that pastors and parishioners are familiar with this document before the additional materials are released. Thank you.

In the Fall, more materials will be available from the USCCB.
