In the wake of the Supreme Court leak on abortion rights, a call for a day of fasting and prayer came from Gomez, the president of the U.S. bishops conference, and Archbishop William Lori of Baltimore, chairman of the USCCB’s Committee on Pro-Life Activities. They specifically requested prayers for the overturning of Roe and for “the conversion of the hearts and minds of those who advocate for abortion.” (AP Photo/Damian Dovarganes, Pool, File)
