Consecration to Jesus through Mary
Since many of our Maronite parishes crown Our Lady on Mother's Day, we are inviting you to do consecration to Our Lady on Mother's Day even though the tradition is to do the consecration on a Marian Feast. To end it on May 9th, we will begin on April 6th.

Prayers
Prayer is the foundation of all that we do in defense of human life. Say a short prayer or blessing. Meditate or ask God's intercession. Devote some time to pray a Holy Hour, or commit to a novena or Stations of the Cross. Special prayers are called for those who have lost a child due to miscarriage, abortion or other cause.
The U.S. Bishops called for pro-life petitions at every Mass in the "Pastoral Plan for Pro-Life Activities." Our Word of Life series is an easy way to do this.
Every January, thousands of pilgrims travel to Washington to pray together for an end to abortion at the National Prayer Vigil for Life. If you can't join us, consider holding your own vigil for the unborn.
There's even a "Mass For Giving Thanks to God for the Gift of Human Life" in the new Roman Missal that can be used on the annual day of penance on January 22.
Everyone can find a way to praise and thank God for the gift of life and to ask for protection for each sacred human life.
