As part of Respect Life Sunday, people from Williamston to the Capital building form a Life Chain.
The 32nd annual Lansing area Life Chain will be Sunday, October 1 at 2:30pm. St. Thomas and St. John are stationed at Grand River and Abbot, downtown East Lansing.
We invite you, your family, friends and neighbors to join this public statement promoting the sanctity of all human life.
This is not a political event. It is a prayerful, peaceful witness for life for one hour.
For further information, call Ann Zygmontowicz at 351-7651.
Prayer for Radical Solidarity
O Blessed Mother, at the angel’s word you went in haste to the aid of your cousin Elizabeth. Although pregnant yourself, you placed her needs before your own.
By your example of radical solidarity, teach us to reverence and protect those in need, without conditions or expectations. Ask your Son to give us unfailing determination to witness to the profound dignity of every person, at every stage and in every circumstance.
In that first Eucharistic procession, you carried Jesus to Elizabeth in her time of need. Obtain for us the grace to bring Christ to any expectant mother who is alone and afraid.
May our support help them to find hope and strength in the Lord.
Amen.

Based in the truth of Scripture that every human life is created in the image of God and has God given dignity, since its beginnings in 2007, 40 Days for Life campaigns have been instrumental in the sparing of over 18,000 lives from abortion through prayer, fasting and public peaceful vigil.
Scripture teaches us that human life is sacred. Each of us is created in the image of God. We are each called to defend, protect and value all human life.
A great prayer for life is urgently needed, a prayer which will rise up throughout the world. Through special initiatives and in daily prayer, may an impassioned plea rise to God, the Creator and lover of life, from every Christian community, from every group and association, from every family and from the heart of every believer.
Pope Saint John Paul II
