Do you have an hour to save a life?

40 Days for Life is a national and international campaign that involves 24/7 prayer vigils that take place outside of facilities that perform abortions.

The  current 40 Days for Life campaign has been going on since Ash Wednesday. It will last until April 1, 2012.   So far close to 300 babies, that we know of, have been saved and at least two abortion facilities have closed their doors.  There are also employees at abortion clinics that have approached the volunteers who are praying outside the centers.  They are looking for a way out.

Just last evening, I prayed at our local abortion facility with one of my sisters and a cousin.  He told me that there is a clinic worker who needs to find a $12 an hour or higher paying job and then she can quit her current job.

This is the 10th campaign that 40 Days for Life has held.  This spring's campaign is going on in 251 cities in the United States and in locations in Canada, England, Australia and Spain.

Can you give an hour to save a life?  To find a vigil site near you go to http://40daysforlife.com/location/.

If you cannot get to a vigil would you please add to your daily prayers:

participants in the vigils
abortion clinic employees
women seeking an abortion
doctors performing abortions
the men affected by abortion and especially
the babies whose lives are the most dramatically impacted by this procedure.

Please also consider spiritual adoption.  See "A Popsicle Stick and a Prayer" in my post list.
