On this day of prayer in the United States, we honor all human life. Please gather your family and join us in prayer.
As we hear in today’s gospel words don’t always soften hardened hearts. But prayer can … and does!
Gather your family together tonight, and united with your global family, pray for the sanctity of human life in every situation and at every stage.
I invite you to include these intentions in your prayers:
For a growing love of each human person
from conception to natural death;
We pray to the Lord.
...
That the life of every human person
might be enshrined and protected in our laws;
We pray to the Lord.
...
For a growing love of God's little ones,
in the womb, in the nursing home or at death's door:
That we might love with the love of Jesus;
We pray to the Lord.
We give thanks to God who has imparted the breath of life in each one of us and ask that the world honor the sacredness of life. We ask this through Christ Our Lord. Amen.
