STATEN ISLAND, Ny., April 30 /Christian Newswire/ -- Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life, today urged Christians to participate in tomorrow's 57th Annual National Day of Prayer, and to include the unborn in their prayers.
"On this National Day of Prayer, we turn to God in Jesus' Name, and His blessing on our nation, our leaders, and our fellow citizens. Moreover, we pray for an end to the most pervasive form of violence, that which occurs against children in the womb."
Fr. Pavone praised Shirley Dobson and her entire team for the work they put into this annual effort. "It is an inspiration to see all that the Dobsons have done for our nation and for the Body of Christ."
Priests for Life is the nation's largest Catholic pro-life organization dedicated to ending abortion and euthanasia. For more information, visit www.priestsforlife.org.
I pray for an end to the planned murder of the most helpless!
Amen AND amen.
Amen.
Amen.
Amen!
The same Shirley Dobson whose organization refused to allow Ravi Zacharias to include the name of Jesus in the "Official Prayer" he drafted for her National Day of Prayer organization. The web site Slice of Laodicia has been all over this.
Take me off this ping list.
Prayers up!
America, bless God.
They DID remember, though, that today was the "International Day of Labor" (or Communist's celebration).
Maybe we ought to remind our local stations, in a Christian manner, that today is a National Day of Prayer, and maybe THAT deserves some coverage if they're also going to cover a holiday perpetuated by an atheist philosophy.
You can try, I doubt it will matter though.
Bump and thanks for the ping.
Thanks for the ping - I join in prayer for an end to abortion.
I pray in agreement with your lovely prayer...
Amen!
Thank you for the ping.
Not a Catholic but a Protestant biologist who KNOWS - LIFE BEGINS AT THE MOMENT OF CONCEPTION.
By the way, Father Pavone is a GREAT man and people can get on his mailing list for updates on the battle against the Demon of Abortion.
For the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ and these little ones sake, I ask it. Truly. Amen
The shame of this horrible sin seems incomprehensible, and yet day after day, year after year, we continue to allow the slaughter of innocents in this nation. Our hearts bear this burden as we hear the lies of those who consider this a precious right for American women. How despicable to call the destruction of human life a "right!"
Dear Lord, forgive us. We confess our sin. We have grown complacent, even at times reluctant to put forth the energy to continue what seems a huge battle. And yet we know that you are on our side. If God before us, who can stand against us? Help us to continue to pray, steadfastly seeking Your power to work with us to change one heart at a time, one tiny portion of law at a time. And one by one may the bricks of this huge abortion industry be dismantled, and at long last, may it crumble in utter destruction. Be our strength and inspiration, Father, and by Your grace may we all see the day when our labors come to fruition. In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Amen, Faith.
