Friends,
Please click here to download the Prayer for the Elderly that St. John Paul II wrote.
I’m asking you to say this prayer on behalf of my mother, Marion Pavone.
You may “know” her from the videos I’ve occasionally put together for you and the rest of the Priests for Life family!
My mom’s health has not been the best since my father died in December of 2022. And over the past several months she has gotten weaker. But thanks be to God she has rallied a bit recently.
A short time ago she was in intensive care for some days, and I was with her for almost two weeks straight. Mom is doing a little better now but is still fragile, so please pray for her.
Thank you for doing this. I have shared with her the many comments that have come in from so many people on my social media platforms and she really appreciates them.
That’s the first favor I have to ask of you.
The second one is this.
Please take a moment right now to make the largest donation to Priests for Life that you can.
I’m asking you to do this because, due to my mother’s serious health issues, I’ve had to spend some extra time in New York being with her and her doctors, comforting her, and praying with her. As a result, during those days I missed some of my usual activities in my work with Priests for Life.
For example, during the two weeks I was with mom I had to cancel most of my daily broadcasts and tapings; as well as miss a meeting at the White House (regarding the Office of Faith) and two conferences that are important in our fight against abortion: the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) and the National Religious Broadcasters conference.
These conferences always involve doing a lot of media interviews and having countless side meetings about strategy and joint action with our colleagues from across the country. There’s no exaggerating the value and impact of these conferences.
What you will do by making your donation to Priests for Life today is give me the confidence to know that, at those times when I am at my mother’s bedside during her times of distress, Priests for Life’s work will continue without interruption thanks to you and the rest of the incredible Priests for Life family.
Or put another way, I won’t have to worry that being with my mother means we will have less funding to keep Priests for Life’s work moving forward.
As I know you know, Priests for Life continues to be the face and voice of the pro-life movement, and our leadership is needed now more than ever.
With the election of Donald Trump and so many other great people, God has blessed America with a chance to repent of abortion and return to Him.
And while Priests for Life is working round the clock to help the pro-life movement take full advantage of this opportunity to implement laws and policies that will protect mothers and babies from abortion, at the same time we are working to literally change the culture in America.
Our ultimate goal is to make abortion in America unthinkable.
To do that we have to change people’s hearts and show them the devastation abortion brings. Priests for Life does that work through the strong messaging we produce for our EndAbortion.TV network, as well as through all the programs we produce for the many social media platforms where we have a vibrant presence, as well as our daily radio broadcasts.
Our most important work, however, remains with the clergy because of their tremendous influence with men and women of good will; individuals who can work with us to bring an end to America’s abortion holocaust.
Countless numbers of priests and bishops support our work. Not long ago I received a note from a Fr. Andrew Luczak in which he wrote:
“Priests for Life demonstrates, by its concern and outreach, a mission both vital and effective. That is why I personally support Priests for Life and pray each day that, by its zealous labors, and the whole Respect for Life movement’s witness, our nation and the world may CHOOSE LIFE.”
Fr. Luczak’s note is just one of the more recent ones I’ve received from, not only Catholic priests, but the clergy of other denominations as well. God is blessing our work and showering it with success.
And so I ask that, during this time when I may need to spend more time with my mother, you give of yourself and make as large a donation to Priests for Life as you can today so I can be with my mother without worrying about the financial stability of Priests for Life.
Thank you for doing this.
And thank you most of all for praying for my mother. It means more to me than I can put into words. May God bless you.
Sincerely,
Pro-Life Leader Frank Pavone
National Director, Priests for Life
