Msgr. Enrique Glennie, pastoral vicar general of the Archdiocese of Mexico City, announced the archdiocese would bolster its family ministry in order to make Christians more aware of the importance of the family and of human life.

Msgr. Glennie said the intensification of pastoral care for the family was requested by Cardinal Norberto Rivera Carrera in order to strengthen the work of parishes in the teaching the faithful about the importance of life, the faith, and devotion, especially in light of the recent legalization of abortion in Mexico City.
