Respect Life Ministry
Become a Prayer Partner for “LIFE”!
Jesus tells us that we should “always pray and never give up.” (Luke 18:1)
It’s easy:
1. Pick up a prayer card at the Respect Life table by the east doors in the Gathering Area.
2. Sign the poster there as a pledge of your commitment to LIFE.
3. Pray the prayer on the card daily.
It’s a small way to make a BIG difference.

Prayer for Life to
Our Lady of Guadalupe
Oh Mary, Mother of Jesus and Mother of Life, we honor you as Our Lady of Guadalupe. Thank you for pointing us to Jesus your Son, the only Savior of the world.
Renew our hope in Him, that we all may have the courage to say Yes to Life, and to defend those children in danger of abortion. Give us your compassion to reach out to those tempted to abort, and to those suffering from past abortion.
Lead us to the day when abortion will be a sad, past chapter in our history. Keep us close to Jesus, the Life of the World, who is Lord forever and ever. Amen.
