When we adore the Eucharist outside of Mass, “we remain in intimate contact with Jesus, the wellspring of all grace.” Eucharistic Adoration “leads to a more perfect reception of Holy Communion. It deepens the mystery of our union with Christ” and “makes us one with Christ in loving all others,” Bishop Emeritus Arthur J. Serratelli asserts in his latest book, “Eucharistic Adora­tion: Scriptural Reflections and Prayers.”

On Friday, Jan. 21, the 49th annual March for Life will take place in the nation’s capital to let the nation know that all life is sacred from the womb to the tomb. This year’s theme is, “Equality Begins in the Womb.” The March for Life marks the Jan. 22, 1973 U.S. Supreme Court decision on Roe v. Wade, which made abortion legal.

On Jan. 22, citizens of United States will mark a grim anniversary — 49 years ago, abortion was made legal when the U.S. Su­preme Court made its landmark decision on the Roe v. Wade case. For almost five decades, Catholics and pro-life advocates have continuously fought this decision in the hope that one day that the right to life is protected for all babies in the womb, and the evil that is abortion will end.
