Intercession:
For
elected leaders who oppose any restriction on the abortion license: may
God allow them to grasp the brutal violence of abortion and the reality
of post-abortion suffering experienced by countless women and men.
Prayer:
Our Father, 3 Hail Marys, Glory Be
Reflection:
On
this feast of St. Francis de Sales, let us consider these words of the
great saint: "All that we do must be motivated by love and not force. We
must love to obey rather than fear to disobey." St. Francis reminds us
that all of our actions must be borne of a spirit of love, and that we
find our freedom in living the truth. As we defend the dignity of human
life, let us ask St. Francis de Sales to pray for us so that everything
we say and do for unborn children and their grieving parents is imbued
with both compassion and truth.
