Archbishop Sheen's Daily Prayer to Spiritually Adopt an Unborn Child

Archbishop Sheen's composed the following prayer and encouraged people to recite it daily for nine months to save the life of an unborn child :

Jesus, Mary, Joseph, I love you very much.

I beg you to spare the life of the unborn child

that I have spiritually adopted

who is in danger of abortion.

He said that although the identity of your spiritual child may be unknown to you during your earthly life, there is every hope that you will be united with him or her forever in heaven.
