We stand at a cultural crossroads, the intersection of the Culture of Life and the Culture of Death. At this critical juncture, the choices we make matter, now and forever. Therefore, the members of Life is Worth Living, a lay apostolate, have chosen to promote the Culture of Life.
Our mission is to strive to affirm -- in thought, word, and deed -- the infinite preciousness of human life; to encourage service to others rather than radical self-interest; and to promote a climate of public opinion that recognizes the right of all human beings to life, respect, compassionate care, appropriate medical treatment, and equality under the law.

JUNE 7TH PRO-LIFE MEMORIAL PRAYER VIGILS IN CENTRAL WISCONSIN ON THE ANNIVERSARY OF GRISWOLD v CONNECTICUT
Stevens Point:
June 7th Pro-Life Memorial Prayer Vigil.
You are invited to join a nationwide witness for life on Saturday, June 7th--the anniversary of the tragic Griswold v. Connecticut Supreme Court ruling decriminalizing contraception and abortifacients in the US. We will gather at 3pm on the public sidewalk outside of the "Family Planning Heath Center" on the corner of Sixth St. and Division (near "Family Video"). We will pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet and the Holy Rosary for respect for innocent human life and God's plan for marriage and family life. Join in solidarity with numerous organizations throughout the country (e.g., American Life League), the state of Wisconsin (viz., Pro-Life Wisconsin), as well as our own Bishop Listecki who will be leading a similar prayer vigil in La Crosse on this same day. Be a witness for Life and true Love! This prayer vigil is sponsored by the Servants of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
