Building The Culture of Life

In her post on the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops blog, Kim Daniels, spokesperson for Cardinal Timothy Dolan of New York, president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, echoes the words of Blessed John Paul II:

Today I believe the Lord is saying to us all: do not hesitate, do not be afraid to engage the good fight of the faith (cf. I Tim 6:12). When we preach the liberating message of Jesus Christ we are offering the words of life to the world. Our prophetic witness is an urgent and essential service not just to the Catholic community but to the whole human family.

Daniels reflects on the late Holy Father’s call to build a culture of life, and this is especially important to remember as we embark on Respect for Life Month.

Blessed John Paul II, pray for us, that we may build a civilization of love by being people of life.
