Walking with Moms in Need
On January 22 we commemorated a tragic anniversary—47 years since the U.S. Supreme Court rendered its landmark decision Roe v. Wade. I dare say it is impossible to name a judicial decision over the last half-century that has been more divisive or impactful at almost every level of our culture.
Ponder for a moment what 62 million additional people in this country over those years would look like. What good we would have encountered and experienced from the presence of those precious lives! 62 million masterpieces of God’s creation revealing to the world the depths of God’s love for us—each of us.

Montana Catholic Conference Advocacy Alert Network
During the legislative session, the Montana Catholic Conference sends out an electronic newsletter to all those who have joined the Alert Network.
The newsletter highlights bills the Conference is actively working on or is following and lists upcoming hearings of interest. If there is an issue with which the Conference needs assistance, a Call to Action Alert is sent out to network members so that they can easily contact their legislators using their Catholic voice to advocate on the issue.
You must subscribe to the Network to receive the newsletters and "Calls to Action." Join the Network by clicking HERE. You may opt-out at any time.
