Prayer for an End to Infanticide

Posted inLife Justice & AdvocacyLocal News

The U.S. Senate recently failed to pass the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act—legislation that prohibits infanticide by ensuring that a child born alive following an attempted abortion would receive the same degree of care to preserve her or his life and health as would be given to any other child born alive at the same gestational age.

While efforts are underway to move this legislation forward, what is also greatly needed is an effort of prayer and awareness.

This link is provided to determine how each senator voted on the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection so that you can keep our elected officials in prayer by name.

“Jesus, Lord of Life, transform the hearts of our elected leaders to recognize that infanticide is wrong and must not be tolerated. We especially pray for our Senator(s) __________ (and __________). Open his/her/their heart(s) and mind(s) to recognize and defend the precious gift of every human life.”

Or (if your senators supported the prohibition on infanticide):

“Jesus, Lord of Life, transform the hearts of all elected leaders to recognize that infanticide is wrong and must not be tolerated. Open hearts and minds to recognize and defend the precious gift of every human life.”
