I testify to the following:

  • I will only pursue peaceful solutions to the violence of abortion when volunteering with the 40 Days for Life-Dallas campaign.
  • I will show compassion and reflect Christ’s love to all abortion center employees, volunteers, and customers.
  • I understand that acting in a violent or harmful manner immediately and completely disassociates me from the 40 Days for Life campaign. 
  • I am in no way associated with Planned Parenthood or its affiliates, or any other abortion or abortion-referral facility, as an employee, informant, volunteer, client, or otherwise.
