Novena Of Reparation For Roe vs Wade

I am having so much trouble with this post. Blogger keeps rejecting it, but I am determined that it will be posted!

From the Priests for Life website:

The Catholic bishops of the United States have designated January 22nd as a special day of prayer and penance in reparation for the massive killing that has resulted from the Roe vs. Wade Supreme Court decision (handed down January 22, 1973) which permitted abortion throughout pregnancy.

Therefore, we at Priests for Life invite you to prepare spiritually for that day by joining a Novena that starts on January 14th and concludes on the 22nd. We invite you to pray the prayer below each of those days, and to let us know through this form (available on the website) that you have committed to say it.

Prayer of Reparation
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 offer 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
