Dr. Nolte, co-founder of the Gianna Center for Women’s Health & Fertility, shares four practical steps each of us can take to advance the pro-life mission—starting right where we are.

Honored at Good Counsel Homes’ Ball for Life, her witness is a powerful reminder that creating change doesn’t require perfection—just a willingness to act with love, courage, and conviction.

Every small “yes” matters. Every step forward makes a difference.

These words challenge us to reflect deeply on the value of every human life.

Our response must be one of compassion, prayer, and action—
supporting mothers so they never feel alone or without hope.

Please pray for a renewed respect for life at every stage.
And help us continue offering life-affirming care to those in need.

In this Sunday Night Prime episode, Fr Benedict Groeschel sits down with Alice von Hildebrand to discuss her husband, Dietrich von Hildebrand and his fight against Hi**er.

✨ Fr. Benedict Groeschel’s legacy lives on not only through the lives of mothers and babies served at Good Counsel Homes, which he co-founded with Chris Bell, but also through his decades of preaching, teaching, and offering counsel to the Church.
📺 Many will remember him as the host of Sunday Night Prime on EWTN and many other programs, where he offered wisdom, humor, and compassion week after week. His friendship with Mother Angelica was a true gift to the Catholic world, as together they built platforms of faith and hope that still inspire today.
🙏 In remembrance of the timeless counsel he gave us all, we are honored to share archival episodes from EWTN — a way to keep hearing the voice of a shepherd who reminded us always of Christ’s mercy and the dignity of every human life.

Sometimes the path forward isn’t clear — but we are never without guidance.

We pray for mothers making difficult decisions, that they may be surrounded by wisdom, supported with love, and led step by step in truth.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart.” — Proverbs 3:5

When everything feels like too much, even small steps matter.

We help create a calm, structured environment where mothers can breathe, reset, and begin again — surrounded by people who genuinely care.

One step at a time can change everything.

There are many people who struggle with Mother's Day.

Many who have lost their babies and don't always feel like a mom.

Many who don't get recognized as a mom by others in their lives.

Many who want to be moms, but can't because they are dealing with infertility and other life factors.

Sending love to everyone struggling. You are not alone. ❤️

Today is the feast of St. Bernadette, visionary at Lourdes, France when Our Lady appeared there to her in 1858. After receiving the visions of Our Lady at the grotto in Lourdes, Bernadette eventually became a religious sister as a member of the Sisters of Charity. She lived a life of simplicity, charity, suffering and deep holiness, dying at the age of 35. When she was canonized a saint, her body was found to be incorrupt. St. Bernadette, pray for us!
