Gospel of Life

Our Mission

The Mission of the Catholic Pro-Life Committee is "to organize, educate, and mobilize all Catholics in the Dallas Diocese and North Texas on Pro-Life issues, to effect their action and to witness to God's intention: the sanctity of life."

Pray to End Abortion

Pro-Life Prayer Vigil every Saturday morning from 8-11am on the public right of way outside of the Southwestern Late Term Abortion Center. Located at 8616 Greenville Ave, Dallas. If you are interested in carpooling, we meet at 7:30 AM in the Southeast corner of the St. Jude parking lot and return to St. Jude by 11:30AM.

If you are not able to participate in the entire vigil, please consider giving any amount of time that you can spare whether it's 20 minutes or an hour, your prayers DO make a difference.

For those travelling to the vigil site on their own, take 75 South to Royal Lane exit, then go East to Greenville ave. Parking is available at Gaston Oaks Baptist church on the Northwest corner of Royal Lane and Greenville Ave.

Please contact Deacon Al Karcher if you wish to help in this enriching culture of life ministry.
