Let us pray for life

 God, creator and sustainer of life,                                                                     

bless us with the courage to defend all life                                             

from conception to natural death.

 

Bless us with the strength to respect all peoples

from east to west, from north to south,

so that we may truly follow the call of Jesus to be neighbor.

We ask this in the name of Jesus,

who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit.

Amen
