Parishes in the archdiocese will join others across the nation in praying for the sanctity of all human life on the National Night of Prayer for Life, Dec. 8-9. 

The prayer service typically consists of four hours of adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, recitation of the Rosary and other vocal prayer, silent meditation and Benediction.
