Our mission is to foster a Culture of Life by: being a prayerful presence, providing emotional, spiritual and practical assistance to local pregnant women, and participating in life-affirming legislative advocacy.
Gabriel Network
We are a Gabriel Network pastorate dedicated to helping local moms in crisis pregnancies.
Through our Angel Friend Team, we help our moms by providing friendship, emotional and
spiritual support, and practical support such as transportation to doctor's appointments. Most
post-abortive women say that if one person had offered to help, they would have chosen life for
their baby. We would love to have you join our team!
You can also support our Angel Team as a member of our Superheroes Club. The Club needs
people who can provide occasional assistance such as tutoring/GED help, handyman services,
meals after the baby is born, and more. Please lend your talents to a mom in need!

40 Days for Life
We participate in our local 40 Days for Life spring and fall campaigns by praying for one hour
each week outside Planned Parenthood on West Street. Statistics show that up to 75% of
abortion appointments are "no shows" when faithful people are praying outside a clinic. 40 Days
for Life is a worldwide mobilization of God's people to Pray, Fast and Stand Vigil to end abortion.
Please join us and be a voice for vulnerable pre-born babies and their mothers!
Support our Local Pregnancy Resource Centers
We support Wellspring Life Ministry by participating in their annual Walk and Run fundraiser.
We hold diaper drives to support Birthright of Prince Frederick.
Education on pro-life issues
We recently held a seminar on end-of-life issues. Topics included how to choose a health care
agent and how to write an Advance Medical Directive that is consistent with our Catholic faith.
We also educate the pastorate on bills before the Maryland Legislature and lobby our local
legislators to vote pro-life.
Movie Nights
We also host an annual pro-life movie night! Free popcorn, drinks and candy!
Please Join Us!
Meetings are held monthly at either OLOS or OLPH. All are welcome to attend.
