The Office of Family/Respect Life provides Christ-centered ministry, resources, training, programs and workshops for families through the diocesan parish structure. Information on state and national Respect Life issues is directed through the diocesan Respect Life Office to parish representatives to organize programs of education, pastoral service, spirituality/prayer, and public policy for their parish community. The goal of our ministry efforts is to intentionally accompany people to conversion and growth in mission and holiness.
