Day 3 - Christmas Novena Prayers:

Peace be with you!
 
Today, let's pray for all the people who work to uphold the dignity of life in our culture. 
 
I know that it is not an easy job. 
 
How do I know? 
 
Well, I have worked full-time in the pro-life movement for nearly a decade helping to spread the message of life to college students in Illinois. 
 
Doing this work, I've been blessed to meet tons of pro-life heroes who have devoted years to helping mothers in need and saving lives of babies in the womb. 
 
Many of them do this work with little or no thanks or recognition. So, I want to ask you to pray for those who work with great love in this important ministry.
 
Please pray for their strength, courage and for more people to support them!
 
Here are the novena prayers for today:
 
 
Opening Prayer:
 
V. O God, come to my assistance.
R. O Lord, make haste to help me.
 
Glory be to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
 
Our Father, Who art in Heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.  And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
 
The Expectation of Birth.
 
O most sweet infant Jesus, who waited for nine months
enclosed in the womb, and inflamed the heart of the
Virgin Mary and St. Joseph with the most powerful love
and expectation, all for the salvation of the world. 
 
Have mercy on us.
 
Have mercy on us, 0 Lord. Have mercy on us.
 
Hail Mary, Full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of our death.
 
Amen.
