What is the Spiritual Adoption Program? Participants pray for nine months for a baby in danger of abortion. (Do not worry about missing the start date, Feast of the Annunciation, March 25. All prayers help.) While this child will remain unknown to his or her 'spiritual parent', God knows who the child is. Many people have found that naming 'their child' helps to keep them focused on the reality that their prayers are helping to save a particular baby from the harm of abortion.

Prayer Suggestion:

 O my Jesus, by the intercession of Mary, your Mother, who bore you so lovingly, and of St. Joseph, strong man of faith who protected you both, I pray to You for the life of

_________________, the unborn child I have spiritually adopted who is in danger of abortion.

Please give to the parents of this child the grace and the courage to bring him/her to birth

and to the life you have planned for __________________. Amen.
