This month’s WORD OF LIFE includes the ST.

2 | Podcast on Down Syndrome 

In recognition of Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month and World Down Syndrome Day on March 21, this month’s BEING PRO LIFE podcast explores abortion and Down syndrome. Bob speaks with Ann Poirier — mother of a child with Down syndrome and a board member of GiGi’s Playhouse Cincinnati — about the joy and challenges of raising a child with Down syndrome and the importance of helping families see that abortion is not the answer to a prenatal diagnosis.

3 | 9 Months with Christ in the Womb

Invite your parish family to participate in 9 MONTHS WITH CHRIST IN THE WOMB​, a prayerful meditation series running from March 25 to Christmas morning (updated for 2026).

Download the resources HERE in both English or Spanish.

4 | 40 Days for Life Sign Up

The Spring 40 Days for Life vigil is currently underway, and runs through March 29 (Palm Sunday.)  This is a wonderful way to enter prayerfully into the Lenten season, while praying for the unborn and mothers who feel like this is their best option. There are still many slots that need prayer warriors in both CINCINNATI and DAYTON.  Check out the 40 DAYS FOR LIFE page, choose your location and sign up!
