Jan. 22: Day of Prayer for the Legal Protection of Unborn Children

A great prayer for life is urgently needed, a prayer which will rise up throughout the world. Through special initiatives and in daily prayer, may an impassioned plea rise to God, the Creator and lover of life, from every Christian community, from every group and association, from every family and from the heart of every believer.
 
 Pope Saint John Paul II

22 enero: Día de Oración por la protección legal de los niños en el vientre materno

Es urgente una gran oración por la vida, que abarque al mundo entero. Que desde cada comunidad cristiana, desde cada grupo o asociación, desde cada familia y desde el corazón de cada creyente, con iniciativas extraordinarias y con la oración habitual, se eleve una súplica apasionada a Dios, Creador y amante de la vida.
