Be Part of the Pro-Life Solution

  • Our parish participates in 40 Days for Life 365 — an initiative that provides YEAR-ROUND peaceful prayer vigils outside Planned Parenthood or other abortion facilities.


  • Our parish’s assigned day is the second Thursday of each month. We gather to pray outside the Sarasota Planned Parenthood (736 Central Ave.) between Noon-5pm, with most of us taking one-hour shifts. If you have questions or would like to participate, please call Joelise at (941) 730-8335.


  • We are a positive, prayerful presence showing God’s love and mercy to those who visit and work at the abortion centers. We are not confrontational and do not use graphic images of abortions. Through our own prayer, fasting and spiritual discernment, this peaceful approach is what we have been led to embrace, and it has produced positive, measurable results.
