Help For Those in Need

Annunciation Prayer for Life

St. Ann School and Preschool are sponsoring a coat drive to benefit the Johnson County Christmas Bureau. The Bureau is a nonprofit who helps the less fortunate during the holiday sea-son. We need gently used coats for men, women. and children. We DESPARATELY NEED coats for children ad we completely ran out last year. Clean out your closets & bring your dona-tions to the YCC, School or Gathering Place. Barrels will be there April 20-30. Thank you. Joyce Smith 913-341-9473.

To God, in thanksgiving of our Risen Lord, let us pray for all life from conception to natural death with this novena, courtesy of St. John Paul II’s Evangelium Vitae Closing

Prayer, Solemnity of the Annunciation 1995, with permission from American Life League (www.ALL.org) Starting on the Feast of the Annunciation, this year celebrated on April 9, let us pray . . .

O, Mary, bright dawn of the new world, Mother of the Living, to you do we entrust the cause of life. Look down, O Mother, upon the vast numbers of babies not allowed to be born, of the poor whose lives are made difficult, of men and women who are victims of brutal violence, of the elderly and the sick killed by indifference or out of misguided mercy. Grant that all who believe in your Son may proclaim the Gospel of life with honesty and love to the people of our time. Obtain for them the grace to accept that Gospel as a gift ever new, the joy of celebrating it with gratitude throughout their lives and the courage to bear witness to it resolutely, in order to build, together with all people of good will, the civilization of truth and love, to the praise and glory of God, the creator and lover of life.

Please pray every day for nine days! Join St. Ann’s Respect Life email list by emailing your contact info to kellyjayhawks@att.net. St. Michael the Archangel, pray for us.
