We have four new children in our family.

We spiritually adopted four children conceived on the feast of the Annunciation, and due to be born on Christmas day, but who are at risk of being aborted.

We do not know who or where these unborn children are, but we will pray for them every day from now to Christmas. Anna initiated this with the pro-Life group she has established in the parish, and Ant, Bernie and I have all joined and adopted a child each.

You could do the same. The idea was Bishop Fulton Sheen’s and there’s a www site explaining the details.

    I spiritually adopted Anthony back on January 17. It’s a wonderful way to support life – especially for those who for whatever reason can’t get down to pray at the clinics. (I do both.)

    that’s good to hear: we’ll remember Anthony in our prayers too.

    I realise I didn’t post the link to the Spiritual Adoption web site: http://www.spiritualadoption.org/
