Abortion is a hot-button issue for many.

We at Christ Our Light are mindful of that fact, and also of the reasons for it.  Issues of personal liberty, health, and reproductive freedom are not always just political buzzwords.  They can signify interest in the human freedom with which God has gifted us.

But our Parish is fully committed to the teaching of Christ’s Holy Church, which emphasizes that the human race has a special destiny, and that every human life is sacred from the moment of conception.

We are committed to the care of God’s children, from the unborn, to the newborn, to the unwed mother.   If you require counseling for an unplanned pregnancy, we are here to help.   The priest and deacons and many parishioners are anxious to talk to anyone for whom abortion may seem an attractive possibility.  We commit ourselves to recognizing the dignity that is in every human mother, child, father, and friend. We pray that you will let us extend the mercy of God to you in this time.
