36th Annual National Night of Prayer for Life, December 8-9, 2025 Parish Observances in the Archdiocese of St. Louis
2025-12-08 17:00 - 2025-12-09 17:00 | MO
On the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, St. Louis Catholics and those across the country are uniting for the National Night of Prayer for Life for the 36th consecutive year. Starting Monday evening, December 8 into December 9, Archdiocese of St. Louis parishes will be praying for our “nation to renew its commitment to live the Gospel of Life.” Dates, times, and prayer format vary per church.
Originating in the Diocese of Rockville Centre, New York in 1989, what started out as a local parish prayer initiative has now grown into a coast-to-coast event involving 700-plus parishes, Knights of Columbus chapters and other pro-life and Catholic organizations. The founders credit the intercession of Mary for its growth, specifically under her titles of the Immaculate Conception and Our Lady of Guadalupe.
