He/she is completely formed, and has been since 8 weeks. All he/she is doing now is gaining weight — and making his/her mother uncomfortable with his/her size. But mom is not worried. In a short time, her baby will be born. Your baby’s mother appreciated the prayers you have said for her and her baby throughout the pregnancy. It has not been easy, but your prayers have given her the grace she needed to brin her baby to term. Please Pray Jesus, Mary and Joseph, I love you very much. I beg you to spare the life of the unborn baby that I have spiritually adopted who is in danger of abortion. Prayer of Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen During the nine month Spiritual Adoption campaign, the development of the pre-born child will be displayed in the vestibule of the church. Please remember to pray daily for your Spiritual Adopted Baby and the baby’s mother and father.
