God our Creator, we give thanks to you, who alone has the power to impart the breath of life as you form each of us in our mother’s womb; grant, we pray, that we, whom you have made stewards of creation, may remain faithful to this sacred trust and constant in safeguarding the dignity of every human life. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

A Note from Bishop Kihneman:
The bishops of the Province of Mobile, together with our Presbyteral Councils, have declared this year to be The Year of the Eucharist and the Parish in all our dioceses. I am asking all the faithful, our parishes, schools and ministries to observe 2021 as The Year of the Eucharist and the Parish.
