IT IS good news that the revised funeral book due

for pwilication later this year will contain a rite which, Mrs Jennifer Demolder tells us (June 15), "recognises the status of babies which are miscarried".

This prompts me to suggest that the church should also make available liturgical texts which would encourage prayer for babies in danger of being surgically aborted, and "commend and entrust to God" the hundreds that are daily aborted in our hospitals and clinics.

Perhaps a special votive mass on the theme might be provided which would promote the frequent offering of the Holy Sacrifice in reparation for this continual slaughter of innocents?
