Bishops Call for Prayer & Fasting on Feast of Our Lady of Fatima on May 13, 2022


The bishops asked Catholics to fast and pray the Rosary for these intentions: 

1) “For our nation, for the integrity of our judicial system, and that all branches of government be dedicated to seeking the common good and protecting the dignity and rights of the human person, from conception to natural death.”

2) “For the overturning of Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey in the Supreme Court’s final decision in Dobbs v. Jackson.

3) “For the conversion of the hearts and minds of those who advocate for abortion.”

4) “For a new commitment to building an America where children are welcomed, cherished, and cared for; where mothers and fathers are encouraged and strengthened; and where marriage and the family are recognized and supported as the true foundations of a healthy and flourishing society.”

5) “For Our Blessed Mother’s intercession and guidance as the Church continues to walk with mothers and families in need, and continues to promote alternatives to abortion, and seeks to create a culture of life.”

The letter concluded, encouraging “peaceful prayers and our compassionate service” to those in need.

“As Catholics, let us witness to the beautiful gift of life with civility and love, and with our peaceful prayers and our compassionate service to all those in need.”

Our Lady of Fatima, please pray for us! 🙏📿🙏
