Day 1 - For Children Sacrificed

Meditation: The greatest challenge a child faces today is surviving the first nine months of life. One in three children don’t live until their ‘birth’ day. In abortion, they die never knowing a mother’s smile or her tender touch. Their cries, never heard on earth, resound throughout all of Heaven.

Prayer: O Mary, Our sweet and loving Mother, you hear the cries of your children sacrificed in abortion. Accept our prayers for aborted children as a soothing balm for their wounds. Comfort them and comfort us who mourn their loss.

Say one Our Father, one Hail Mary, one Glory Be

Recite the Memorare: REMEMBER, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, I fly to thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother; to thee do I come; before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.
