Prayer to the Holy Spirit, the Advocate
...We ask You, O Holy Spirit, to make us ever more aware of those who need us as advocates. Grant that we may hear the cries of our youngest, smallest brothers and sisters, those still in the womb, who cannot speak or defend themselves, and who cannot even pray.
Holy Spirit, as You are the Advocate, so make us advocates. As You hear our cries for mercy, so let us hear the cries of others for mercy. Save us from the misfortune of seeking mercy only for ourselves, while being deaf to others. As you loosened the tongues of the apostles at Pentecost, so grant us today a Pentecost for the unborn, that we may speak for them before the great and the small, before governments and institutions, and before all your people.
Amen.

Respect Life Committee:
Mission Statement: St. Peter's Respect Life Committee was formed in 1986 to raise awareness and encourage action on the life issues of abortion, infanticide and euthanasia. Under the direction of the Archdiocesan Respect Life program, our goals are met through efforts involving spiritual, educational, public policy and service activities. The Respect Life Committee reflects the commitment of the Church to a comprehensive program of education, service and witness modeled after the Bishop's Pastoral Plan for Pro-Life Activities.
PAST AND PRESENT EFFORTS
Our Committee usually meets Sept - June on the first Monday of the month.
All are welcome!
