Spiritual Adoption Our parish is participating in a Spiritual Adoption Program until Christmas. We pray monthly for the unborn, for the mothers and fathers, and we will conclude in by honoring the birth of our Lord by donating baby gifts to Heartbeats. Month three: The baby can now squint, swallow and move his tongue. He sleeps and awakens. Fingernails and toenails form and he now has his own unique set of fingerprints. Sensitive to touch, he will tightly grasp an object placed in the palm of his hand. He breathes amniotic fluid to help develop and strengthen the respiratory system, but he gets the oxygen he needs through the umbilical cord. At the beginning of this month, just nine weeks after conception, he can suck his thumb. I can suck my thumb now! Prayer: Lord Jesus, You took our human nature upon Yourself and shared our life, death, childhood and adulthood. Lord Jesus, we ask You to bless and protect the children who are in their mothers womb. Save them from the danger of abortion. Give mothers the grace to sacrifice themselves in body and soul for their children. Help all people to recognize in the unborn child a brother, a sister, saved by You, our redeemer in the womb.
