Rebuilding a Culture of Life

The Diocese of Superior's plan for rebuilding a culture of life follows the four sections of the USCCB's plan. Everyone can connect with at least one section, while many people are involved in all four:
 

• Prayer
  • Pray daily. This is most important and it can be done by everyone – from toddlers to the bedridden elderly. As we’ve often heard, never underestimate the power of prayer.
• Service
  • Serve those in need – the homeless, the elderly, prisoners.
• Advocacy
  • Stand up for those persecuted and who are not loud enough or do not have a voice.
• Education  
  • Read – and share – materials from the USCCB, the Catholic Herald newspaper and information from the diocese for the official Catholic stance and position on a topic.
  • Attend conferences and workshops to become better informed.

Each year materials are purchased for each parish and school by the Diocese of Superior’s Respect Life Office, in order to assist clergy, principals, directors of religious education, teachers, catechists and parents in teaching adults, youth and children to respect all human life. 

"Even in the midst of difficulties and uncertainties, every person sincerely open to truth and goodness can, by the light of reason and the hidden action of grace, come to recognize in the natural law written in the heart (cf. Rom. 2:14-15) the sacred value of human life from its very beginning until its end, and can affirm the right of every human being to have this primary good respected to the highest degree."
