The Respect Life Workshop for Parish Pro-Life Coordinators, Co-Coordinators, and pro-life leaders within the church parishes of the diocese is held annually each fall. Traditionally, the workshop includes a presentation, which provides an overview of current pro-life information and resources in support of the four major areas on which the office focuses:
- Prayer and Worship
- Public Education
- Pastoral Services
- Public Policy
Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic social distancing guidelines, we will not have a meeting, but will be available for curb-side pick up from 9:00 a.m. – 10:30 a.m. for pro-life coordinators to pick up their annual Respect Life Packet prepared by the USCCB. Representatives from LA Right to Life will also be available with “Love Life-Vote Yes” materials. Items can be picked up on the east side of the building at Immaculata Center, 1408 Carmel Dr., Lafayette, LA 70501-5215.
Respect Life Packet, prepared by the USCCB, is different from year to year. Each year, the packet contains new materials which have been produced to help Catholics understand, value, and become engaged with supporting the dignity of the human person. Additional information on the USCCB's Respect Life program, as well as the 2020-2021 "Live the Gospel of Life" - “to imitate Christ, and follow in his footsteps” (EV 51) Respect Life Packet, is available through the USCCB website.
