Life
The Knights of Columbus remains firmly committed to defending the right to life of every human being, from the moment of conception to natural death. Countless councils and individual Knights conduct projects aimed to build a culture of life in their communities. What we choose to do, or not do, about abortion, euthanasia, human cloning and embryonic research impacts lives for generations to come. Take action now and support a culture that values human life at all stages. Here are some of the programs and activities that our council does to promote a culture of life. The closest will usually appear first in the list.
Here is the Life Line Pregnancy Center's Prayer Request and Praise Report for 9/20/24
Good morning Prayer Partners! Wow, what a week! We pray that you are all safe and dry!
We have seen three clients this week who are abortion minded with very similar stories. Financial reasons usually play a role, however in most cases an unplanned pregnancy can be so overwhelming that an abortion seems like a quick and easy way out. Of course, we know that it is anything but easy, often leading to regret. We encourage these women and men to take the time to look at all of the resources and options while pointing them to Christ!
Lastly, an abortion minded client that you prayed for recently decided to go through with the abortion and took the first abortion pill. She immediately regretted it, but thankfully we had given her the information on abortion pill reversal! After confirming that her baby still had a strong heartbeat, she was able to start the pills for reversal!
Prayer can change everything! Please continue to pray for these planted seeds! Thank you so very much for all the prayers and support!
The one who plants and the one who waters have one purpose, and they will each be rewarded according to their own labor. For we are co-workers in God's service; you are God's field, God's building. 1 Corinthians 3: 8-9

Wilmington is one of the sites for LifeChain, an international silent prayer vigil by Christians to communicate their opposition to abortion and for Catholics to show support for life at all stages. The 2022 date is Sunday, October 2. It runs from 2:30 till 3:30. Because fewer churches and individuals are participating, there will be new locations for some parishes. For Saint Mark parishioners we should gather in the old KMart and Burger King parking lots where signs can be picked up. We will then line up there along College Road.
LifeChain is a simple thing we can easily plug into. It's an international demonstration of ordinary families who stand alongside busy thoroughfares with Pro-Life messages. Is it worth one hour of your time to possibly save an unborn child? Is it worth one hour of your family's time to instill the values of the Culture of Life in your children?
40 Days for Life is a national inter-denominational program to become more aware of the issues affecting life from conception to natural death. 40 Days for Life (40daysforlife.com) has daily prayers and reflections online to guide us through the 40 Days devotion. Council members will be encouraged to avail themselves of this. The 2018 Autumn 40 Days for Life runs between 9/23 through 11/1.
