Prayers for each day of the 40-Day Vigil
(Ecumenical)
February 6 - March 16, 2008
Prayer Vigil Location: Family Reproductive Health, 700 E. Hebron, Charlotte, NC 28273
Please pray for the following every day of the vigil: (For those who pray the Rosary, it is suggested that one Decade be prayed for each.)
- For the conversion of Deborah Walsh, owner of Family Reproductive Health and all of its employees, especially the abortionists; and for the conversion of all abortion facility owners, abortionists and all other employees.
- For the closing of the Family Reproductive Health facility and for the closing of all abortion facilities.
- For the conversion of all who are part of Planned Parenthood or support it in any way.
- For the change of hearts of all those planning to have abortions today, either surgical or chemical; and for all of those planning to perform abortions today, or participate in it in any way, including through support or pressure.
- For today’s prayer vigil intention (see the calendar below.)
Please pray for the following intentions, one for each day as indicated. This is an adaptation of the prayer, “Litany in Response to Abortion,” by Fr.Frank Pavone, National Director, Priests for Life, which is spread over the 40 day period. The first set of days is asking our Lord for forgiveness. The next set of days is our intercessions and then finally, the last set of days is our prayers of thanksgiving.
