A unique approach to ending abortion From February 13 - March 24, 2013, our community will join the 40 Days for Life campaign. 40 Days for Life is an intensive effort designed to raise awareness, save lives, bring healing, and lead our nation to repentance for the sin of abortion through three components: 1. Pray and fast Christ told us that some demons can only be driven out by prayer and fasting. The two go hand in hand. Prayer keeps us rooted in the fact that it is our desire to carry out God's will. Fasting is a sacrifice that helps us reach beyond our own limitations with God's help. Fasting is not a Christian diet; it is a form of physical prayer. You can fast from food, TV, alcohol ... anything that separates you from God. 2. Sign up for prayer requests and updates To learn more about 40 Days for Life and get prayer requests and breaking news about this effort, sign up today using the form on the top right of this page. 3. Spread the word The success of 40 Days for Life depends on the most powerful form of advertising in the world -- word of mouth. Tell all of your friends, family members, co-workers, and fellow believers about 40 Days for Life. Encourage them to visit this web site where they can learn more and get involved. 4. Find your role Please contact us to explore opportunities to assist in the following areas: Prayerfully discern how God is calling you to help. 5. Participate in the peaceful vigil You can help make a life-saving impact by joining our local vigil at: The vigil is peaceful; participants pledge that they will conduct themselves in a Christ-like manner. PAMPHLETS CONTAINING GRAPHIC DEPICTIONS OF ABORTION, ARE NOT TO BE HANDED OUT. PASSERSBY ARE NOT TO BE APPROACHED but feel free to speak with anyone that approaches you. We are there to pray for an end to abortion, not convert anyone to our faith/church/religion. Learn more about how you can help; visit the international 40 Days for Life web site.
Each day between now and the end of the campaign, please commit to pray and fast for the nationwide effort, and for the efforts here in our city.
