Pro-Choice Catholic Testimony
Real Catholics. Real Stories.
“I do not regret my abortion. That choice allowed me to find religion, allowed me to graduate, allowed me to begin a career — none of which would have been possible if I had become pregnant.”
“I’m a single mom… The Catholic church isn’t feeding my child.”
“I hold my head high and go to Mass every Sunday.”
“I found out when I was four months pregnant that the fetus was no longer viable.”
“The grace of God includes free will, which makes choice synonymous with Christ.”
“Catholicism is my faith, but we live in a country that was founded on a separation of church and state.”
“Mary was given a choice.”
“Being raised Catholic taught me a lot about loving thy neighbor.”
“I have often wanted to leave the church, but this group and the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice have given me hope to change the church from the inside.”
“When I think about the work of Catholics for Choice, I think about what it means to my sisters, my primas, and every community member who believes in a deep respect of conscience when making decisions about abortion.”
