What People have to say about National Day of Prayer for the Unborn - Catholic

Today is the National Day of Prayer for the Unborn in the United States. It marks the 48th anniversary of Roe v. Wade which magically discovered a new right to abortion.

What did national leaders and well-known Catholics have to say today? Here are a few:

USCCB:

Cardinal Dolan of New York:
It's a somber day as we remember January 22, 1973 and the disastrous Supreme Court ruling of Roe v. Wade. It has led to the brutal abortion license here in the country we love. We bishops have designated today a national day of prayer for the legal protection of the unborn.

Phoenix Diocese:
Today is the anniversary of the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion and has been recognized as a National Day of Prayer for the Legal Protection of Unborn Children. Join us in prayer and fasting for the protection of the most vulnerable of our brothers and sisters.

Society of GK Chesterton:
Fr. Frank Pavone:
On this day that we remember the terrible Supreme Court decision in 1973 that legalized the killing of unborn babies, We must not remain silent. 

We are their Voice!


Fr. Frank Pavone
Does it take seeing the baby girl in the womb to make you want to defend her? She has no voice yet. Will you be her voice? #prolife

I want to celebrate the Day we ENDED LEGAL ABORTION!



EWTN:

Not sure when this was written, but this is:

Pope Benedict XVI's Prayer For The Unborn

Lord Jesus, 
You who faithfully visit and fulfill with your Presence the Church and the history of men; You who in the miraculous Sacrament of your Body and Blood render us participants in divine Life and allow us a foretaste of the joy of eternal Life; We adore and bless you.

Prostrated before You, source and lover of Life, truly present and alive among us, we beg you.

Reawaken in us respect for every unborn life, make us capable of seeing in the fruit of the maternal womb the miraculous work of the Creator, open our hearts to generously welcoming every child that comes into life.

Bless all families, sanctify the union of spouses, render fruitful their love.

Accompany the choices of legislative assemblies with the light of your Spirit, so that peoples and nations may recognize and respect the sacred nature of life, of every human life.

Guide the work of scientists and doctors, so that all progress contributes to the integral well-being of the person, and no one endures suppression or injustice.

Give creative charity to administrators and economists, so they may realize and promote sufficient conditions so that young families can serenely embrace the birth of new children.

Console the married couples who suffer because they are unable to have children and in Your goodness provide for them.

Teach us all to care for orphaned or abandoned children, so they may experience the warmth of your Charity, the consolation of your divine Heart.

Together with Mary, Your Mother, the great believer, in whose womb you took on our human nature, we wait to receive from You, our Only True Good and Savior, the strength to love and serve life, in anticipation of living forever in You, in communion with the Blessed Trinity.
