Culture Of Life
Our Culture of Life ministry handles anything and everything to do with promoting a culture of life in our parish and community. We receive program guidance and inspiration from the San Diego Diocese and function as the local organizers striving to galvanize popular support for our mission.
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I dedicated you, a prophet to the nations I appointed you.” (Jeremiah 1:5)
Our Aim
We strive to raise awareness and gather support in building a culture of life in our parish and community.

How We Serve
40 Days for Life Vigil
We participate in the 40 Days for Life Vigils at local abortion clinics and solicit signatures in favor of pro-life political initiatives.
Invite Speakers
We also invite speakers to describe their own experience of living through an abortion, thereby providing our parishioners with insight to the trauma and after effects of abortion.
Participate in Regional Initiatives
We also participate in other regional initiatives to promote a culture of life. For example: the COLFS (Culture of Life Family Services) annual fundraiser, COLFS Gala in the fall, the COLFS Family Picnic in the summer, and the Life Perspectives LifeWalk in the fall, all to raise awareness and gather support in building a culture of life in our parish and community.
Interested in Giving Online?
Many of our parishioners find it very convenient to process their giving and monetary contributions online. These donations go a long way to help the people at St. Stephen Parish serve our community.
