Prayer for Reverence of Life

Note: Prayer is from the website of the Archdiocese of Vancouver. 

The Prayer for Reverence for Life expresses the core values of the Respect Life Office of Vancouver. Join the thousands of Catholics within the diocese who pray it weekly during Mass.

All mighty God, giver of all that is good. We thank you for the precious gift of human life.

• For life in womb, coming from your creative power
• For the life of children, making us glad with their freshness and promise
• For the life of young people, hoping for a better world
• For the life of the handicapped and disabled, teaching us humility
• For the life of the elderly, witnessing the ageless values of patience and wisdom.

Like Blessed Mary, may we always say yes to your gift. May we defend it and promote it from conception to it's natural end and bring us at last oh Father to eternal life, in Jesus Christ our lord. AMEN
