Respect Life means to recognize every human person as a special creation of God, made in His image, and to value every human life from the moment of conception to natural death.

On January 22, 1973 abortion was made legal in our country. Since then there have been over 60 million abortions. Every day there are about 2,700 abortions in the U.S, and over 100,000 world wide. In Fort Bend County, there are about 25 abortions every week, about one for every 6 births. In Harris County, there are about 50 abortions every day. If we do not do something, if we do not stand up for those who cannot stand up on their own, who will?
In addition to the children killed by abortion, additional millions of children have lost their lives from "emergency" and hormonal contraception, when a new life begins but the child is prevented from implanting in the uterus to obtain nutrition from mom.
Even more millions of children have also been created by way of In Vitro Fertilization and then discarded, donated to research (to die) or frozen indefinitely. These children are still created by God, in His image, and for His purpose. Reproductive technology treats children as products to be manufactured, with "extra" embryos as disposable by-products of the production of one wanted child, rather than respecting the human dignity of every child. Fewer than one of eight children created with IVF can expect to be born.
Please consider including pro-life organizations in your charitable giving.
