When I heard the testimony of the grandmother, I realized I was not alone. Here was someone who experienced the same things as I did. I see the way my daughter continues to suffer years later as a result of an abortion she had decades ago and feel so sorry that I did not do more at the time to support her in her pregnancy. Little did we know that this would impact our entire family forever.” –Jo 

Such were the words of someone who attended “An Afternoon of Prayerful Remembrance and Intercession.

With close to 60 million abortions in our country, the devastation to families and our nation is overwhelming. Too often we only think of the woman and the unborn baby, but the truth is, abortion impacts each and every one of us whether we recognize it or not.

“An Afternoon of Prayerful Remembrance and Intercession” is a prayer service created in the spirit of the New Evangelization, for the entire local community. Acknowledging the universal impact of abortion through reflections and testimonies offered as part of the day, the prayer service offers the opportunity for all of us to come together in an extended period of prayer, contemplation, and intercession in the context of the Church’s Sacraments, seeking forgiveness and healing for our entire nation. The day of prayer includes an opportunity for the Sacrament of Reconciliation, a period of silent Eucharistic Adoration, and concludes with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

Looking for something to do in your diocese or parish that will educate while bringing people together for prayer and intercession in the coming year?  Perhaps An Afternoon of Prayerful Remembrance and Intercession is what you seek.
