“We weren’t planning to move,” said Brenda Collins, executive director of Babies and Beyond of Wisconsin. “The space became available, so we figured ‘Let’s jump on it now while we have this opportunity.’” Collins said these words to Bishop Donald J. Hying of Madison who had come to their new facility on June 20 for a tour and to offer a blessing.

“We are called to proclaim from the housetops the Gospel of Life, to speak publicly as we are today,” said Bishop Donald J. Hying of Madison at the March for Life Wisconsin event held at the State Capitol in Madison on June 24. “That every single human life is sacred, made in the image and likeness of God to be respected, to be nurtured, and to be loved.”

As we begin October, which is Respect Life Month, the Church calls our attention to the dignity, beauty, and inviolability of the human person, created in the image and likeness of God. Every person is sacred from the moment of conception to natural death, deserving of respect, welcome, nurture, and love.
