Prayer, Penance and Pilgrimage for Life


January 22 marks the 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court case that legalized abortion in America.  Beginning today, the U. S. Conference of Catholic Bishops is calling on American Catholics to participate in Nine Days of Prayer, Penance, and Pilgrimage for the healing and conversion of elected officials who support abortion and people whose lives have been changed by abortion. The novena ends on January 27.

See their site for more information, and remember to pray for those pilgrims who will participate in Marches for Life throughout the nation this coming Friday.
