Heavenly Father, in Your love for us,
protect against the wickedness of the devil,
those helpless little ones
to whom You have given the gift of life.
Touch with pity the hearts of those women
pregnant in our world today
who are not thinking of motherhood.
Help them to see that the child they carry
is made in Your image,
as well as theirs, made for eternal life.
Dispel their fear and selfishness
and give them true womanly hearts
to love their babies and give them birth
and all the needed care that a mother alone can give.
We ask this through Jesus Christ,
Your Son, Our Lord,
Who lives and reigns with You
and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever,
Amen.
