Here is a collection of scripture, song, seven excerpts from a Pope's encyclical, and a little pondering of a parish priest, designed to help Peace and Justice groups to pray, study, act and love. The life issues for prayer are arranged monthly, January to December: The Adoption Option, Health Care With Dignity, Nonviolence of Jesus, God's Good Earth, Work That Works, Being Sexual Beings, Freedom of Religion, Food-Clothing-Shelter, Education, Natural Dying, World Peace, and Sabbath Rest. Each set of scripture is arranged for either group or private prayer, using the New Revised Standard Version. Songs are compiled for singers from well-know melodies. The seven excerpts are from Pope John Paul II's encyclical "The Gospel of Life" (1995). The ponderings are based on the premise that everyone is "pro-life" about something, with that as a starting point for all people of faith.
