Evangelium Vitae Award

  • June 20, 2016

The Center for Ethics and Culture awarded the 2016 Notre Dame Evangelium Vitae Medal to the Little Sisters of the Poor and Mother Provincial Loraine Marie Maguire on April 9, 2016. The Evangelium Vitae Medal is the nation’s most important lifetime achievement award for heroes in the pro-life movement, honoring individuals whose outstanding efforts have served to proclaim the Gospel of life by steadfastly affirming and defending the sanctity of human life from its earliest stages. O. Carter Snead, Director of the Notre Dame Center for Ethics and Culture, stated: “Their work and witness embody the goods at the heart of the Evangelium Vitae Medal. Their unwavering defense of the unborn in the HHS mandate litigation, alongside their longstanding work to care for the elderly poor, offers a beautiful and powerful witness to the unique, inviolable dignity of every person, from conception to natural death. Their work is a testament to the radical solidarity and hospitality at the core of the Gospel of Life.”

Mother Provincial Loraine Marie said the Little Sisters were “honored beyond words” to receive this award. Mother Provincial mentioned the outpouring of love and support from so many people during these past two years has been a witness in itself and has brought us to “a new level of faith and trust in God’s Divine Providence over us.”
