Following the Journey of Christ...

To celebrate the journey of our Savior through life in the womb of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we will have a weekly "This Week in Christ's Life" post.  Consider praying for a baby due to be aborted from Annunciation through Christmas.  Name your baby and, each day, ask the Holy Family to watch over your adopted baby and to touch the hearts of the baby's parents, giving them the strength to carry their child.  "Jesus, Mary, and Joseph; I love you very much.  I beg you to spare the life of the preborn child that I have spiritually adopted who is in danger of abortion."  Weekly, pray a Rosary of the Unborn, with the intention of your child.  (Mysteries can be found here)  Over your nightly meal, consider adding a prayer for the unborn.

Weeks are listed in gestational weeks. (2 weeks behind LNMP weeks, which is how pregnancy dates are commonly known. Gestational weeks correlate to the actual days of a child's life and do not include the first two week's of a woman's cycle leading up to ovulation.)  Information on development is taken from The Visible Embryo and The Pregnancy Journal.
