God of life and love,
You created us in your image
And sent your Son to bring us life
Instill in us a respect for all life,
From conception to natural death.
Empower us to work for
Justice for the poor.
Nourish us that we may
Bring food to the hungry.
Inspire us to cherish
The fragile life of the unborn.
Strengthen us to bring comfort
To the chronically ill.
Teach us to treat the aging
With dignity and respect.
Bring us one day into
The glory of everlasting life.
We ask this through
Christ Our Lord.
Amen
O Mary, Mother of the Life Within,
all life we entrust to you;
The life of every expectant mother
and the child within her womb:
The life of every human body,
the life of every human soul;
The life of every newborn child
and the life of all grown old.
You held the Lord to your own heart
and drew Him so close in.
So draw us now in all our needs,
O Mother of the Life Within.
Amen
