Respect Life Sunday

Archbishop Murphy offered this homily at a Respect Life Sunday Mass celebrated less than one month prior to Election Day when residents of Washington State will vote yes or no on Initiatives 119 and 120. These initiatives will respectfully legalize assisted suicide for terminally ill adults and materially expand abortion rights. “As stewards of creation, including the gift of life, we know we are but caretakers of what has been shared with us,” said Archbishop Murphy. “We must be accountable for what good and gracious God has given to us.”
