Nine Days for Life

Catholics can participate in Nine Days for Life, a nationwide novena to protect human life, from January 16 to 24. The program provides daily intentions, short reflections, and suggested actions to help build a culture of life. Materials are available in both English and Spanish.

In the Diocese of Little Rock, the Respect Life Office sponsors the project. Members of the Knights of Columbus will lead the novena online during the nine days by providing prayers, reflections, and suggested actions. Participants can also watch and pray through the diocese's YouTube channel.

Those interested in receiving the novena automatically can subscribe to daily text messages. For more information in Arkansas, people may contact Catherine Phillips, the director of the diocesan Respect Life Office, or visit the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops website.
