It was on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception that Our Lady of Guadalupe, patroness of the Americas and the Unborn, first appeared to St. Juan Diego. The National Night of Prayer for Life bridges these feasts. It honors Mary and prays for her assistance in establishing a Culture of Life, to preserve liberty, to protect the faith and to beg her Son to revive our land. We will be united in churches across the country in prayer to end abortion and to restore God’s blessings of Life, Liberty and Faith in America. Please join us for a few hours, for one hour, or for even just a few minutes. Whatever your schedule allows! People of all faith traditions are invited and encouraged to participate!
