Prayer & Faith
Pope John Paul II has called for "a great prayer for
life" and the Bishops of the United States in their latest Pastoral
Plan for Pro-Life Activities reminded us that prayer must be "the
foundation of all that we do in defense of human life."

A
Prayer for Life
|
|
Father
and maker of all,
you adorn all creation
with splendor and beauty,
and fashion human lives
in your image and likeness.
Awaken in every heart
reverence for the work of your hands,
and renew among your people
a readiness to nurture and sustain
your precious
gift of life.
Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever.
Amen.
