Spiritual Adoption: late April - eight months
Your adopted baby is close to being ready to be born! He or she can open and close their eyes at will, and has been gaining weight fast, adding muscle tissue and fat. Weight is now close to 4 pounds and he or she is about 16 inches long. Your prayers have given mom the grace she needs to make a good plan for her baby, whether for parenting or adoption.
Please continue to pray every day for your spiritually adopted child, that his or her life will be spared, that his or her mother will find the support she needs to choose life and plan for a safe and happy home for her child.
You are encouraged to choose a name for the child you are praying for. Please pray the following prayer each day:"Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, I love you very much. I beg you to spare the life of
( name), the unborn baby that I have spiritually adopted who is in danger of abortion."
Beginning with conception in late August, monthly updates on the child's development will be posted here, and printed in the bulletin on the 4th Sunday of the month.
