Fr. Peter J. West

Associate Director, Priests for Life


Father West has been a pro-life activist since 1986. He earned an M.A. degree in theology from Holy Apostles Seminary in Cromwell, CT. and was ordained for the Archdiocese of Newark in 1991. Father West was the founder and director of Amicus, a successful Catholic young adult group for men and women in their twenties and thirties. He also has experience in working with youth as a teacher and a youth group leader. In his pastoral ministry he has preached frequently on the topic of abortion. He has been able to dissuade women from having abortions, and has helped women who have had abortions to find healing and peace.

He spent almost seven years in pastoral ministry before being released by Archbishop McCarrick to serve with Priests for Life. Fr. Peter West began his ministry with Priests for Life on April 1,1998.  Since that time he has spoken to both priests and laity at over 300 parishes throughout the United States.  He also has appeared on radio and TV spreading the Gospel of Life.  Fr. Peter West is based at the Priests for Life office in Staten Island, NY.
