We climbed to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa, the world’s highest free standing mountain (19,341 ft) … for the least of the least. With Bishop Coffey (Military Archdioces), Dolores Meehan (Walk for Life West Coast), Bernadette Costello (LIFE Runners), representing our 16,500 teammates around the world, All In Christ for Pro-Life! See our ministry mission schedule at liferunners.org/africa.
All In Christ for Pro-Life! The LIFE Runners apostolate began by sharing these prayer-filled, challenging, one-minute devotions to help end abortion through holy teamwork. May this daily devotional inspire you to put your Pro-Life faith into action!
Following an encounter with Saint Padre Pio near the finish of the 2006 Pikes Peak mountain race, Dr. Patrick Castle was inspired to lead an Unbound book study about how evil works in the modern world. The original group of twelve faithful LIFE Runners identified abortion as the crown jewel of satan. They put their Pro-Life faith into action by writing these devotions, praying for mothers at abortion facilities, and visiting the elderly at nursing homes.
Now, thousands of LIFE Runners, newborns to elderly, in thousands of cities around the world, defend life from conception to eternity. Running is optional, and faith is required. LIFE Runners wear the REMEMBER The Unborn message as a public witness on shirts, jackets, hats, wristbands, and more. Their bold blue witness gear impacts hearts and minds for saving lives. LIFE Runners gather for an annual fall race retreat, the summer A-Cross America Relay, and many local chapter huddles. Join the team and order your witness gear at liferunners.org.
Thanks be to God for growing the LIFE Runners apostolate to help end abortion soonest. Special thanks to the 108 authors for sharing these devotions, En Route for publishing, plus Larry and Diane Cochran for sponsoring this holy project. Thanks to all LIFE Runners who are living out Christ’s call to share the gospel of life abundantly. Heaven is a team effort; forward in faith we go.
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us persevere in running this race set before us with our eyes fixed on Jesus. ~ Heb 12:1-2
GOD first, LIFE always, TEAM forever!

Bernadette Costello (2020): operations director. “My mom conceived 22 children (6 miscarriages). After delivering her fifth child, the doctor attempted to do a hysterectomy without her permission.

We all are called to holiness, but we may not know what holiness means or how to approach it. Do you really desire to climb the ladder of holiness? Do you seek a life of spiritual joy in union with God, no matter the ups and downs, the pains and disappointments of life? Do you want – in yourself – to approach the image and likeness of Christ? Do you want to “see” God? Do you want to be a true disciple of Jesus all the time? If your answer is yes to these questions, too, then Al Hughes and Ronda Chervin have written this for you! Within the pages of this book, you’ll learn how to do six things: 1) embrace Catholic faith and culture, 2) determine where your treasure lies, 3) find and enter the narrow gate, 4) obey the revealed will of God, 5) identify God’s specific will for you, and 6) embrace unconditional charity.

Healing Meditations from the Gospel of St. John is about recovering who we are . . . our true selves. Simply put, the true self is the self that God wants us to be, what Kierkegaard called God’s prophesy for each person, gifts, potentialities, feelings . . . all that our Creator originally gave us as images of God.
