Today we join congregations across the country in observing “Sanctity of Human Life Sunday.” The theme is “Did God Really Say?” which is based on Isaiah 49:1, “Before I was born the Lord called me; from my birth he has made mention of my name.” The powerful Word of God made this world and everything in it. The Word of God also declares that all human life is sacred. You are beloved, no matter how young. You belong, no matter how old.
