“Now CHOOSE LIFE, so that you and your children may live and that you may love the LORD your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him.” ~Deuteronomy 30:20
“Lifesavers” is St. Ignatius’ Junior Pro-Life Club. Its purpose is PRAYER, EDUCATION and SERVICE, focusing on building a Culture of Life. Membership is open to all 7th and 8th graders who attend St. Ignatius School or Parish Religious Ed.
The Lifesavers participate in the twice-yearly 40 Days for Life campaign. During the campaigns, they will meet at the Women's Resource Center parking lot across the street from Planned Parenthood to pray the Rosary and listen to a brief talk each Friday at 6:30 a.m. Parents are invited to join them. (Please note that the clinic is NOT open during this time.)
Students will receive one service hour each time they go. They can also wear Lifesaver shirts with uniforms on the days they go to pray.
In addition to participating in "40 Days for Life," the Lifesavers also help with various service projects like the Mother's Day Carnation Sale for Life.
