Read: My Take on Being Pro-Life as a Filipino Catholic
This Post is about the fight against abortion. Here, I’m narrating about how I became Pro-Life, and why even I’m a Filipino, I care about the Pro-Life updates and issues in the United States, such as heartbeat bills and Heartbeat Law. I’m also talking about why you, too, must care. If you’re from the United States or whichever part of the world, I encourage you to read this. I assure you that you will learn much about what being ‘Pro-Life Catholic’ truly means.

Blessed be God, who hears the prayers of the needy, and fills the hungry with good things. Let us pray to him in confidence:
Lord, show us your mercy.

Merciful Father, upon the cross Jesus offered you the perfect evening sacrifice,
— we pray now for all the suffering members of his Church.
Lord, show us your mercy.

Release those in bondage, give sight to the blind,
— shelter the widow and the orphan.
Lord, show us your mercy.

Clothe your faithful people in the armor of salvation,
— and shield them from the deceptions of the devil.
Lord, show us your mercy.

Let your merciful presence be with us, Lord, at the hour of our death,
— may we be found faithful and leave this world in your peace.
Lord, show us your mercy.

Lead the departed into the light of your dwelling-place,
— that they may gaze upon you for all eternity.
Lord, show us your mercy.
