SPIRITUAL ADOPTION PRAYER PROGRAM

Thank you for joining us once again for our Spiritual Adoption Program where we pray for the unborn. This has been a very powerful prayer program, and it is gaining prayer partners all the time. If you know someone that would like to join our efforts, please share my contact information with them, and I will add them to the email group. Each month there will be a special word and phrase from the bible to focus on. There is a daily prayer to keep us connected in this special journey, and then we will wrap up the year with a baby shower!

We are beginning month one in the Month of October this year. You are asked to please pray the daily prayer (see attached) and to consider naming your spiritually adopted baby. A certificate of adoption is attached. Please print and complete the blanks as pertinent, and place it in a place where you will remember this soul. Can't decide on a name? Perhaps you are praying for twins?? You may want to choose two names this year!

In the first month, a heartbeat can be detected. The key word to remember this month is "JOY". Please open this introductory video from me to review what is happening in the first month of the unborn, and to reflect on the word of focus for month one:

Below is information from one of our prayer partners that shared the Spiritual Adoption prayer from Bishop Fulton J. Sheen from many years ago:

Mary, Mother of the Unborn
Prayer of Fulton J. Sheen

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph
I love you very much.
I beg you to spare the life
of the unborn child that I
have spiritually adopted
who is in danger of abortion.
The name I wish to give my baby is ______ .

(During your earthly life this spiritually adopted child
of yours will be known only to God but in the world
to come it is hoped that you will meet the souls
your prayers saved and spend eternal happiness
with them.)

Thank you again for participating in this exciting and powerful program.
Blessings, Margaret Strate, SSJ Respect Life Ministry
