Friday Fast For the Unborn

Reminder! For those who wish to fast for the unborn on Fridays. From 8-Noon. Please say a prayer before and after and during for all those who are taking part. Blessings in abundance on this, the Feast of the patroness of the unborn, Our Lady of Guadalupe.

Lord God, I thank you today for the gift of my life,
And for the lives of all my brothers and sisters.
I know there is nothing that destroys more life than abortion,
Yet I rejoice that you have conquered death
by the Resurrection of Your Son.
I am ready to do my part in ending abortion.
Today I commit myself
Never to be silent,
Never to be passive,
Never to be forgetful of the unborn.
I commit myself to be active in the pro-life movement,
And never to stop defending life
Until all my brothers and sisters are protected,
And our nation once again becomes
A nation with liberty and justice
Not just for some, but for all,
Through Christ our Lord. Amen

Thank-you for the reminder. I had completely forgot. Again. My husband works odd days, so it really throws me off as to what day it is. It feels like Monday to me.

You're welcome for posting your reminder. I thought it might help to reach a few more people.

You're going to have to call me to remind me . . . I can't remember this in my Friday morning mad rush. I'm up at 6am (at the latest) and I'm brewing some joe right from the start. I forget!! I'll maybe have to tape a note to the joe machine on Thursday night that reminds me. Hey, sometime my thinker does think good thinks.

It's nice that you are posting reminders. I did remember to fast last Friday. Hope I can keep it up!

If I wasn't late, I would have took part in the fast. Who announces those fasts, or is it something you do with your followers? Just wondered. I didn't know that Our Lady of Guadalupe was the patron saint for the unborn. I just love your blog by the way. It's really nice.
