The mission of the Respect Life Ministry at St. Vincent's is:

To represent the essence of Catholic teaching that all life is sacred and precious to God at every stage from conception to natural death. The Respect Life Ministry seeks to open hearts and minds through education, service, advocacy and prayer, helping people to choose life and give hope.

We invite you to join our mailing list so that you can be informed of our upcoming events. To signup and for more information please call Pauline Fijalkiewicz at 773-755-9598 or email her at respectlife.stvdep@yahoo.com.

40 Days for Life is an international campaign of fasting, prayer, and round-the-clock peaceful vigil outside of abortion clinics that has saved over 5,000 babies from abortion, spared mothers and families from pain and loss, converted 61 clinic workers, and closed 21 clinics.

Please join the Old Town Chicago 40 Days for Life campaign outside the Planned Parenthood on LaSalle. St. Clement parishioners are sponsoring the vigil on Saturday, March 3rd, and we are encouraging St. Vincent de Paul parishioners to support them on this date, to make sure all hours are filled.

For more information, St. Vincent parishioners should feel free to contact Cadey O’Leary at 773-710-4202 or email her at coleary@bujiproducts.com. Sign up for hours (on any date) at Vigil Calendar.
