The St. Raphael ProLife Committee passionately believes in these words of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI:
"We are not some casual and meaningless product of evolution.
Each of us is the result of a thought of God.
Each of is willed.
Each of is loved.
Each of is necessary."
May God bless us all as we strive to Stand for Life at all times and in all circumstances.
