First report
The Diocese of Little Rock released a reflection for Respect Life Sunday on October 4, 2026, connecting the Gospel parable of the Wicked Tenants to the advocacy for the unborn.
In the reflection, the diocese notes that the parable describes tenant farmers who murder the landowner's agents and son to seize a vineyard for themselves. The text uses this message to ask whether people live for their own will or for the will of the Lord.
The diocese encourages young people to seek happiness by asking what the Lord wants them to do with their lives rather than focusing on personal desires. This commitment to following God's will serves as the basis for the diocese's continued advocacy for the unborn.
