What is Walking with Moms in Need?
Walking with Moms in Need is a nationwide, parish-based initiative to increase support for pregnant and parenting mothers in need. It works to ensure that any woman who finds herself unexpectedly pregnant, or parenting in difficult circumstances, can turn to her local Catholic Church and be connected with the resources she needs.
Walking with Moms in Need was launched by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops on March 25, 2020, in honor of the 25th anniversary Pope St. John Paul II’s encyclical Evangelium vitae (The Gospel of Life). In that landmark encyclical, Pope St. John Paul II challenged the Church:
“With great openness and courage,
we need to question how widespread
is the culture of life today among
individual Christians, families,
groups and communities in our
Dioceses. With equal clarity and
determination we must identify the
steps we are called to take in order to
serve life in all its truth”. (EV 95)
Pope Francis has likewise reminded us that our parishes are called to be “islands of mercy in the midst of a sea of indifference.”
