"Heavenly Father, Lord God of all,
I have left the abortion industry.
I deeply regret the pain and loss I have caused through my actions in carrying out abortions.
I come before you, God, desolate in my grief,
Inconsolable in the reality of what it is I have actually done to others.
I know You forgive me.
Jesus said from the Cross, 'Forgive them, Father, for they know not what they do.'
In one sense I knew what I was doing; in another I did not.
I know you have complete and total forgiveness for me for the actions I carried out.
But I cannot forgive myself.
I grieve - have nightmares.
Please bring me comfort in my sorrow.
My grief is for the children whose lives were sent to Your Care before their time on earth had been completed.
I come before You now, and pray for these little ones.
I pray that they, now safe in Your Care, will have forgiveness for me for taking their life.
I pray that they, now far from all pain, will have forgiveness and compassion for me for causing them pain.
I pray that they, now safe in Your Fatherly Arms, will extend the blessing of forgiveness and compassion on my distress, so that healing in my soul from the consequences of my actions can begin.
My grief is also for the mothers of the babies whose lives I took.
Some of the mothers may have health and other problems, such as emotional suffering, after the abortion situation.
I pray for them through your Gracious and All-Loving Power.
I pray that Our Lady, Mother of all, graciously assist them by means of Your Grace and Power.
I pray for the families who have been affected by the abortions I carried out.
Lord God, I am but a humble person as I come before You now in my sorrow.
Have pity on my suffering and help to heal my inner spirit.
May the little ones who passed through my hands rest in peace and safety within an eternity of happiness.
May I too, heal from past actions and be at peace within the infinite ocean of Your Mercy, God.
Amen."
