Members of our parish family have an opportunity again this year to "spiritually" adopt a child who was conceived earlier this month of May.  Not all newly-conceived babies are allowed to be born.  Over 2,000 babies lose their lives to abortion each day.  It is these babies who are in danger, who you are asked to "adopt."

As you read this, pick a name for your baby, giving the baby the humanity he or she deserves.  Say short prayer each day for nine months for your unborn child and for all unborn children.

You will receive reports describing your baby's development, and your baby will be born in late January, 2020.  At that time we will have a baby shower, and all parishioners will be invited to bring gifts.  Those gifts will be donated to local pregnancy centers.

We are experiencing a steady decline in abortions, but the anger displayed by those in favor of abortion rights has increased.  More than ever, prayers and loving actions such as this baby shower, are needed.
