In October, the Catholic Church in the United States celebrates Respect Life Month, and the first Sunday of October is designated as Respect Life Sunday. Materials to help Catholics understand and value the gift of human life and help build a culture that cherishes and protects it are available at: https://www.respectlife.org/respect-life-month.
