Description
In Prayers for Life, Mary Ann Kuharski, longtime activist
and champion of pro-life causes, presents an inspiring forty-day
devotional for anyone concerned about abortion and the dignity of life.
These brief, powerful, Christ-focused reflections remind the reader of
prayer’s potency as a force for change.
The call to preserve life requires both work and prayer and this moving forty-day devotional offers readers the spiritual sustenance for the road ahead. Each day’s reflection expresses a vital theme in the struggle to end abortion. A brief quotation from scripture serves as a meditation, followed by short reflection points. Drawn from the Bible, the writings of the saints, and the words of recent popes, Kuharski’s reflections solidly root pro-life efforts in Catholic spirituality. An added feature highlights the growth of the unborn child during its early days of development. Suitable both for personal and small-group use.
Advance Praise
“Two
kinds of truth merge within this book: the truths of modern science
that reveal the amazing development of a child in the womb; and the
truth of faith expressed in prayer. As offered in this book, both truths
evoke love: love for God, to whom we pray, and love for each child
forming in a mother's womb, for whom we pray. May this book help you to
foster the growth of both loves.”
Rev. Mitch Pacwa, S.J. Host of EWTN Live
“There are few in the pro-life movement as dedicated, passionate, and experienced as Mary Ann Kuharski. Nationally
known speaker and author, and founder of PROLIFE Across AMERICA, Mary
Ann has lived and breathed the pro-life cause for many years. Her billboards are like sentinels standing on our highways and byways, reminding us of the preciousness of human life. Prayers for Life is a pro-life prayer book containing forty daily meditations. The
book is simple, yet thought provoking, and draws the reader into prayer
for human life from conception onward. The fruit of Kuharski’s many
years of praying for human life, Prayers for Life is founded on quotations from the scriptures, which set the theme for each reflection. It also contains significant quotations from popes, priests, saints, and lay people among others. It contains as well, inspiring factual statements on human life in the womb. All this in a simple-to-follow daily format. I highly recommend Prayers for Life. It is a valuable resource and a significant contribution to the building up of a culture of life through prayer.”
Most Reverend John M. LeVoir
Bishop of New Ulm
“Mary
Ann Kuharski beautifully reminds us that all of our actions to preserve
life must be focused on Christ and rooted in prayer. This is a
wonderful resource for individuals and pro-life groups of all kinds.”
Joseph M. Scheidler

“This
book is a wonderful treasure for the pro-life movement. The powerful
reflections and prayers combine beautifully to encourage a deeper
commitment to life at every stage."
