What is the Spiritual Adoption Program? Spiritual Adoption is an opportunity for God to use your prayers to save the life of one of His beloved children. Name your baby whatever you like— a favorite aunt or uncle, a special grandparent, a fondly remembered teacher, a dear friend, or perhaps the boy or girl you never had. This will be your spiritually adopted baby, but God knows an actual baby who most needs your prayers, and one day you will meet him or her in Heaven.
Naming your baby helps keep you focused on prayers for their healthy development. Put your prayer card in a prominent place and commit to pray daily for your baby – and their parents – for the next 9 months. How to Participate in the Spiritual Adoption Program? The Spiritual Adoption program starts in September 2024, and will end on Mother’s Day, May 11, 2025. You can sign up online at any time. Choose a favorite name for your baby or perhaps use the name of a saint. Be sure to provide your email address, and your baby will send you a short monthly update about his or her development. Each month, we will display information on the display monitors around St. Michael’s about your baby’s development.
