Vigil for Life invites all pro-lifers to “come away” (Mark 6:31) and spend some time in prayerful silence with Christ Jesus on our 9th annual Respect Life retreat. Our Retreat Master will be Fr. Andrew McAlpin, O.P. (Pastor of Blessed Sacrament Parish in Madison). The retreat will run December 2 through December 3 at Durward’s Glen Retreat Center in Baraboo, Wisconsin. Anyone working to protect innocent life, or concerned about building a culture of life is welcome to attend. The cost of the retreat is $65 per person. Scholarships are available.

God of all nations,
Father of the human family,
we give you thanks for the freedom we exercise
and the many blessings of democracy we enjoy
in these United States of America.
We ask for your protection and guidance
for all who devote themselves to the common good,
working for justice and peace at home and around the world.
We lift up all our duly elected leaders and public servants,
those who will serve us as president, as legislators and judges,
those in the military and law enforcement.
Heal us from our differences and unite us, O Lord,
with a common purpose, dedication, and commitment to achieve liberty and justice
in the years ahead for all people,
and especially those who are most vulnerable in our midst.
Amen.
