There are those who actively pray and work for an end to abortion.  However,did you know that in the United States, since 1973,  in a time frame of only 38 years, more than 53 million* unborn babies have been killed?  This is, on average, more than three thousand  -- every day one unborn baby every 23 seconds.  Therefore, we must ask ourselves, Are we doing enough? 

Prayer is a strong weapon against evil.  In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus tells us, "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them."

The Holy Hour for Life is an opportunity to come together as a Christian community.  The purpose is to pray for the unborn and that life in all its stages be respected; for we are made in the image and likeness of God who has commanded us, "Thou shall not kill."
