Pro-Life: a novena for all to pray!

Thanks to A Lee in the Woudes, we have a novena prayer for the next nine days to pray for a return to the Culture of Life in this country! Here's the prayer she posted from the Priests for Life site:

God and Father of Life,
You have created every human person,
And have opened the way for each to have eternal life.

We live in the shadow of death.
Tens of millions of your children have been killed
Thanks to the Roe vs. Wade decision legalizing abortion.

Father, have mercy on us.
Heal our land
And accept our offering of prayer and penance.
In your love for us,
Turn back the scourge of abortion.

May each of us exult in hearts full of hope
And hands full of mercy
And work together to build a culture of life.
We pray through Christ our Lord.
Amen

Won't you join our family and pray this with your family, today and everyday through Thursday, January 22nd?
