The USCCB has recognized October as Respect Life Month.
In Respect Life Month we are asked to renew our commitment to proclaiming, defending, and upholding the dignity of all people, at every age, station, ability, and identity. As Saint Thomas Aquinas articulates – the most excellent of Christian virtues is “caritas,” the call to love others not because of what they can do for us, but simply because God called them to exist.
