The Respect Life Ministry is committed to the preservation of all human life through promotion of the dignity and sanctity of all life. It provides education and information regarding life issues from conception to natural death and the quality of life each individual deserves to receive.

"We proclaim that human life is a precious gift from God; that each person who receives this gift has responsibilities toward God, self and others; and that society, through its laws and social institutions, must protect and nurture human life at every stage of its existence." — U.S. Catholic Bishops, Pastoral Plan for Pro Life Activities.

We know earthly death is not the end, but rather the door through which we must pass to gain eternal life. Because of our belief and hope in the Resurrection, we can face death not with fear, but with preparation. Although certainly not comprehensive, the considerations in this document are provided as starting points for understanding and preparing for this transition, whether it is imminent or not.
