Sioux City, IA
HOME: Welcome to 40 Days for Life

YOU can help save lives!

Once again this fall our Siouxland community will be joining with 208 other communities and participating in the 40 Days for Life campaign. Please join us September 23 through November 1 2009, for the largest and longest coordinated pro-life mobilization in history. 

40 Days for Life
is a focused pro-life effort that consists of 40 days of :

  • prayer and fasting
  • peaceful vigil at the Sioux City Planned Parenthood location
  • and community outreach

This international effort is gaining momentum and already we have seen tremendous results from past campaigns.  In just four national campaigns, we know that 1561 babies have been saved, 18 abortion staff members have changed jobs and left the industry for good and 3 abortion clinics have closed their doors.  We know that the Holy Spirit is guiding this effort and that with God's help, we will gain even more ground during this campaign, ultimately taking us closer to our goal of ending the killing of innocent babies through abortion.  

Take a stand for life

While all aspects of 40 Days for Life are crucial in our effort to end abortion, the most visible component is the peaceful prayer vigil outside the local abortion facity, Planned Parenthood of Greater Iowa.
You can help make a life-saving impact by joining our local vigil at:

Planned Parenthood of Greater Iowa
4409 Stone Avenue
Sioux City, IA  51106

(Across the street from Burger King on Hwy 20 & Stone Ave;  Next to Super 8; West of Western Iowa Tech)
