The final Florida rally in Jacksonville was the hottest, most humid stop of the UNITED tour thus far.
The local leader, Mary Catherine, said that during this campaign, the abortion center has not performed abortions on four days when they would normally be scheduled.
Margaret Foster, a former 40 Days for Life leader from Helena, Montana, was in town with her husband and they attended the rally. Margaret's story of the first life saved in Helena is told in chapter 33 of the 40 Days for Life book.
In addition to dynamic local speakers, Jor-El Godsey of Heartbeat International rejoined the tour and will be on the bus through North Carolina.
The day?s final stop marked the 48th state of the UNITED tour, with a South Carolina state rally in Charleston.
Several years ago, a circuit-riding abortionist pointed a loaded gun and threatened 40 Days for Life volunteers who were peacefully praying in the public right-of-way outside this facility. He was subsequently arrested, and the faithful prayer volunteers pressed on, undeterred by his actions.
Alex, the local leader, reports the volunteers have noted a significant reduction in the number of customer cars during this campaign.
Two more days to go!
