In today’s first reading (1 Samuel 1:20-22, 24-28), Hannah’s prayers for a child were answered when she conceived a son. In her earlier inability to bear children, she felt that God had not shown favor upon her or her marriage. As we all know, babies/children are truly a gift and a blessing from God.
Bring your witness to the sidewalk this week and pray for the young mothers to see the baby in their womb as a gift and a blessing.

Let us pray
[as the family of God
who share in his life]
Father in heaven, creator of all,
you ordered the earth to bring forth life,
and crowned its goodness
by creating the family of man.
In history’s moment when all was ready
You sent your Son to dwell in time,
obedient to the laws of life in our world.
Teach us the sanctity of human love,
show us the value of family life,
and help us to live in peace with all men
that we may share in your life forever.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen
New Saint Joseph Sunday Missal
