Walking with Moms in Need: A Year of Service

The 25th anniversary year of Evangelium Vitae gives us a wonderful opportunity to assess, expand, and communicate resources to pregnant moms and families in need. Parishes across the country, through the support of their bishops and pastors, are invited to join a nationwide effort entitled, Walking with Moms in Need: A Year of Service.

The Archdiocese of Miami will be officially participating from July 16, 2020 through October 31, 2021. Through this initiative, parishes are asked to complete a simple inventory of the resources currently available in their assigned Archdiocesan Pregnancy Help Centers, assess the results and identify gaps, and plan and implement a parish response based on their findings. The Year of Service for the Archdiocese of Miami is broken up into 7 phases of parish action. The seven phases include:

• Phase 1: Announce the Year of Service and Build a Core Team (July 16, 2020)
• Phase 2: Launch the Parish Inventory Process (by September 26, 2020)
• Phase 3: Share Inventory Results and Begin Assessment and Planning ( November 1, 2020)
• Phase 4: Announce and Commit to your Parish Response (December 12, 2020)
• Phase 5: Implement Parish Plans (January 22, 2021)
• Phase 6: Measure and Evaluate the Implementation of Parish Plans (June 11, 2021)
• Phase 7: Celebrate Parish Plans and Respect Life Ministry at the National Congreso pro Vida in Miami! (October 29-31, 2021)

As a follow-up to the February 2-3 Virtual Catholic Days at the Capitol 2021, and as part of Respect Life Ministry's ongoing Walking with Moms Monthly webinar series, Rebecca Brady and Angela Curatalo present Advocating for Moms. 

A PDF of the presentation is available above under Parish Resources.

Como resultado de la Conferencia de Obispos Católicos durante los Días Católicos en el Capitolio, discutiremos las prioridades legislativas de una perspectiva pro-vida para darte las herramientos para comunicarte con los oficiales electos y abogar por las madres y sus niños nacidos y no nacidos.
