Catholic Prayer to Honor and Defend Life
A Catholic prayer for life petitions God to protect every human being from conception to natural death. It fosters a spirit of reverence and mercy. This prayer asks for strength to defend the vulnerable and for mercy where love has failed. It expresses gratitude for the gift of life and calls us to witness to its sacredness in our society. Key themes include respect for life at every stage, intercession for the unborn, aged and disabled, and a plea for healing and forgiveness. Many such prayers, inspired by US bishops’ resources, also connect this intention with Christ’s presence in the Eucharist.
