Sacred Heart Parish Respect Life Committee Mission Statement

The Respect Life Committee invites you to join with us in praying for the sanctity of all human life. We invite you to our meetings and events. We ask for your input and ideas to help us become a large and active group promoting a culture of life in our community. We ask you to recommend our information to anyone experiencing a crisis pregnancy.
Madonna Ministry
Sacred Heart Church's Madonna Ministry participates in outreach to the community. We support organizations and centers that give help to women and their families experiencing a crisis pregnancy. We supply monetary and material donations to this cause. We collect baby and maternity supplies. We hold fundraisers to raise money for crisis pregnancy centers. Some of the fundraisers have included:The baby bottle campaign, The flea market table, and the children's game room at the parish Christmas Bazzar.
If anyone wishes to donate to these fundraisers or events, or would like to volunteer to help with one, they can call Gina Ruppert 410-526-6496.
