How to spiritually adopt a child in danger of abortion

This is a very sensitive issue. When it comes to abortion, it indicates an event that has very sad and painful consequences on the mother, on the family and above all, an unborn child is not given to know earthly life. Spiritually adopting a child in danger of abortion means defending the conceived life threatened with death through prayer, let's see how.

Defending life conceived through prayer

The prayer is recited for nine months before the Cross or the Blessed Sacrament. The Holy Rosary must also be recited every day together with an Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory. You can also add some good personal resolutions freely.

The initial premise:

Most Holy Virgin Mary, Mother of God, angels and saints all, driven by the desire to help unborn children, I (...) promise from the day (...) for 9 months, to spiritually adopt a child, whose name is known only to God, pray to save his life and live in God's grace after his birth. I undertake to:

- say the daily prayer

- recite the Santo Rosario

- (optional) take the following resolution (...)

Daily prayer:

Lord Jesus, through the intercession of Mary, your Mother, who gave birth to you with love, and of Saint Joseph, a man of trust, who took care of you after your birth, I ask you for this unborn child whom I have adopted spiritually and is in danger. of death, give his parents the love and courage to make their son live, to whom you yourself gave life. Amen.

How did spiritual adoption come about?

After the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima, spiritual adoption was the response to the request of the Mother of God to pray the Holy Rosary every day as penance for the atonement of the sins that most wound Her Immaculate Heart.

Who can do it?

Anyone: lay people, consecrated persons, men and women, people of all ages. It can be done several times, as long as the previous one is completed, in fact it is done for one child at a time.

What if I forget to say the Prayer?

Forgetting is not a sin. However, a long hiatus, for example a month, disrupts the adoption. It is necessary to renew the promise and try to be more faithful. In the case of a shorter break, it is necessary to continue the spiritual adoption by making up for lost days at the end.
