PRAYER OF THE DAY:
Good and gracious God you are the giver of all life. You Word tells us that before you formed us in the womb you knew us, we are worth more than many sparrows, and you have secured the way to life forever with you through our savior Jesus’ death and resurrection. In a world conflicted on the value of life, help us to honor and celebrate all the seasons of life given by you. Use each of us to be your ambassadors and voice box that understanding and respect for the sacredness of life might be restored. This we pray through Christ Jesus our Lord.
