Thank you.Text Box: Lord, this is the people that longs to see your face. Responsorial PsalmText Box: “40 Days for Life Prayer”: O God our loving Creator, All life is in your hands from the moment of conception until death. Help us to cherish our children and to be grateful for the privilege of sharing in the work of creation. Bless all those who defend the rights of the unborn, the poor, the handicapped and the aged. Enlighten and be merciful toward those who do not value the gift of life. Help them to seek and find you. Grant that by our care and respect for all people, we might be a sign of your love in the world today. This we ask in Jesus’ name. Amen.Text Box: Text Box: Volunteers NEEDED!
