In October of 2022, Greater Columbus Right to Life and the Diocese of Columbus' Office for Social Concerns held the Into Life Conference and helped launch Into Life in nearly a dozen churches.
In October of 2023, we are working like never before to help defeat a dangerous and extreme abortion amendment that, if successful, will force Ohioans to accept taxpayer-funded abortion through all nine months of pregnancy, gut parental notification and involvement before children access life-altering procedures like abortion and sterilization, and eliminate overnight hundreds of basic safety guardrails that protect women and unborn children in Ohio. As we approach this November election, we know two things. The first is that we must defeat this amendment, and the second is that regardless of how the political winds blow, pro-life Ohioans will wake up on November 8th with the same dedication to help pregnant women, born and unborn children, and families. On October 13th, we invite you to join us as we welcome members of the Sisters of Life, a Catholic religious order dedicated to contemplation, action, and the belief that we have each been made in the image and likeness of God. Come to be refreshed and renewed by the Sisters, their joy, and the beauty of their message, and stay to learn a little more about the campaign, pick up yard signs, literature, and tee shirts. This evening is free and open to the public. The talk will begin at 7:00 PM in the Church, and a reception will follow in the Klinger Center. While the focus of this event is not fundraising, we will gladly accept donations to help us continue to get the Into Life program in churches and communities across central Ohio and to defeat the Nov 7th Ballot Issue. If you would like to sponsor the event, please contact Beth at 614-445-8508. |

Into Life
Open to everyone, Into Life is of particular interest to pro-life leaders, especially those who are leading or feeling called to lead a pro-life small group, respect life committee, Knights of Columbus or Men's group, or Walking with Moms in Need, and those who are looking for prayer and renewal while resting in the beauty of the Gospel.
Into Life invites participants into a new vision of pro-life ministry, one grounded not in slogans, but in authentic relationships, genuine dialogue, and intentional accompaniment. The program is a 12-week series designed by the Sisters for Life, Notre Dame's McGrath Institute for Church Life, and Camp Campo films.
The program focuses on the foundations of what it means to be human, look at the "crisis" of crisis pregnancy, look inward to the qualities of our own mercy, and walk with those in need. It includes small group discussions, reflection, and silent and communal prayer. It aligns closely with the Love Approach and prayer model used by Greater Columbus Right to Life's Sidewalk Counseling Program.
