Eucharistic Adoration for Life

Eucharistic Adoration for Life:

Prayer in Reparation and For Healing on the Anniversary of Roe v. Wade

Join Fr. Patrick at Holy Family this Friday—the anniversary of Roe v. Wade—for a time of prayer before the exposed Blessed Sacrament, beginning at 4:30 PM. Scripture readings, some time for silent prayer, the Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary for Life, and Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament will round out our parish’s impassioned plea to God for an end to abortion and the respect of all human life. 

We anticipate concluding around 5:15 PM. Fr. Michael’s monthly Healing Service will follow at 6:00 PM. 

A great prayer for life is urgently needed, a prayer which will rise up throughout the world. … May an impassioned plea rise to God, the Creator and lover of life, from every Christian community, … from every family and from the heart of every believer. 

Let us…discover anew the humility and the courage to pray and fast so that power from on high will break down the walls of lies and deceit: the walls which conceal from the sight of so many of our brothers and sisters the evil of practices and laws which are hostile to life. – Saint John Paul II, Evangelium vitae (1995)

There has been much discussion about how many people will return to the faith after this pandemic.   I tend to be in the more pessimistic camp of out of sight, out of
