Spiritually Adopt and Pray for a Baby in the Womb

Our parish Spiritual Adoption is underway! Keep track of your unborn baby’s development below.

Thank you to everyone who has Spiritually Adopted an unborn baby. Below is the prayer to pray daily until Mother’s Day (May 9, 2027).

Month Two

Month One

Day One

At the moment the father’s sperm and mother’s egg unite, a new and unrepeatable human being comes into existence, complete with his own unique set of DNA. Although he is only one cell, everything about this little person is already present: eye color, blood type, the height he will grow to be, color of hair - everything! He will play a role in his family and his community – a role only he can play! Nothing is added after conception to make him a complete human being. He already exists; all he needs is nourishment, a safe, warm environment, and most of all – love. His parents don’t know he exists yet. Pray for them to bring their baby to birth so he can fulfill the plan God has for him.
