This bilingual edition of the Rite for the Blessing of a Child in the Womb provides the prayers for use within the Mass or outside of it. Published by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), this pastoral resource brings the Church’s blessing to expectant parents and their unborn child.
The rite acknowledges that all life is a precious gift from God. It sustains parents with grace and comfort in times of need, while uniting the parish community in prayer for the child in the womb.
Archbishop Gregory M. Aymond, then-Chairman of the USCCB Committee on Divine Worship, expressed his hope that this blessing not only offers God’s support to parents but also serves as a powerful witness to the sanctity of human life from the moment of conception.
