Ablaze for Life walks with families as they build the Culture of Life, promoting the dignity of the human person from conception until natural death.
Our Values
Led by the teachings of the Catholic Church, we believe in the Dignity of the Human Person from conception until natural death. We believe, as the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has emphasized, that abortion is the pre-eminent Pro-Life issue of our time. We believe in a multi-facetted approach to life issues including education, service, support for those in need, and political advocacy.
Our Vision
Our vision is to build a true Culture of Life starting in our families. We believe our children will go on to continue growing this Culture of Life in their own families or through vocations to the religious life.
Our Patron Saint
Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire. - St. Catherine of Siena
We are inspired by St. Catherine to find where God is calling us to build the Culture of Life and to help others to do the same.
