They Sacrificed … so We Could Fight for Life





Shawn Carney, President/CEO
40 Days for Life

We recognize that ending abortion locally isn't something we have to do; it's something we get to do.

Fighting to end abortion isn’t easy. It's a spiritual battle fraught with challenges.

In the United States, our right to stand in the public square – peacefully praying for an end to abortion – was secured through heroic sacrifices made by our men and women in uniform.

Tune in to the following episodes of the 40 Days for Life podcast, where we share how you and patriots everywhere can use your rights to help end abortion where you live.


Without these key rights, 40 Days for Life would not exist.

More importantly ... 14,643 abortion appointments scheduled out of despair wouldn't have happy endings.

For each of those moms, the tears of regret that would have followed an abortion have been replaced by the indescribable joy of a child’s smile. And none of this would be possible without patriots willing to exercise their freedom for love of God ... and love of country.

As we commemorate Memorial Day, let us recall that there's no greater tribute we can pay to those who gave their lives for our freedom than to use that freedom ourselves.


 
40 Days for Life is a community-based campaign that takes a determined, peaceful approach to showing local communities the consequences of abortion in their own neighborhoods, for their own friends and families. It puts into action a desire to cooperate with God in the carrying out of His plan for the end of abortion. It draws attention to the evil of abortion through the use of a three-point program:Prayer and fasting; Constant vigil;  and Community outreach.  For more information, please use this link.

Another Baby Saved in Center City Philadelphia During 40 Days for Life



from Ted Meehan
Pro-Life Union of Delaware County


There is great life-saving work being done by 40 Days for Life! If you can spend an hour in front of one of the local abortion centers, your presence can save a life. There is a campaign near you. Please give a little bit of your time to be a witness for Life. 


For those near enough to Center City Philadelphia, there are two centers who cause the deaths of 100 babies each - every week. One is Planned Parenthood at 12th & Locust. The other is The Women's Center at 777 Appletree.

"The Gates of Hell will not prevail against you." (Matthew 18) 

A gate surrounds a fortress. It protects what is inside. The gates of hell will not prevail against us, but we must be present to confront them! Our few pro-lifers who spend an hour here and there have been closing abortion centers all over the United States. The gates of hell are collapsing every day because we are confronting them with Truth and Prayer and Love. And hundreds of babies are being saved.

Go to the 40 Days for Life website  info@40daysforlife.com and find a campaign near you. Then sign up - one time, for only one hour - to stand before the gates of hell. They cannot prevail against you!


From Dr Monique Ruberu...

I received this email from Jean of St Albert the Great parish today!!!

Today Angela and myself were praying at 12th and Locust around 12:30. We were saying the Rosary together and a young woman who we'll call "M" and a young man came out looking distressed. We approached them and offered them a pamphlet and asked if they were alright. M said she was going to have an abortion but changed her mind. We were so thrilled for her and expressed our happiness offering her information for any help that she may need. We told them that we were praying to God for girls to change their minds. We informed them of the clinic at the corner but the young man said he had to go to work and they would come back at another time. 
Angela and I feel confident that the good Lord heard our prayers and saved her little baby. We are remembering M in our prayers.

Thanks be to God for this child that will live and for the courage of this young woman. Please continue to keep her in prayer so that she may be committed to saving the life of her child.

Shawn Carney
President, 40 Days for Life


Record numbers of people, in cities from coast to coast, are ramping up for this fall's UNITED 40 Days for Life campaign ... which is on track to be the largest nationwide pro-life mobilization in American history!

David Bereit, Steve Karlen, and I just shot a 3-minute video about UNITED -- explaining the ambitious goals for this history-making initiative, how we're launching a massive tour to visit all 50 states during the 40 days, and how to ensure your city takes part. View this video below or on YouTube using this link.  



If there's an abortion business where you live, the time is right to join the UNITED 40 Days for Life campaign. The deadline to apply to lead a local campaign is this coming Tuesday, June 28, at midnight.

UNITED is the opportunity we've all been waiting for ... to join hands from sea to shining sea ... to pray, fast, and stand together for life ... and ensure a bright future for our beloved America.


America is at a crossroads, and the second half of 2016 provides an unprecedented opportunity to accelerate the END of abortion. That's why record numbers of people are joining together for the "UNITED" 40 Days for Life campaign — happening from September 28th through November 6th.

The 40 Days for Life Podcast!



from Shawn Carney, Campaign Director
40 Days for Life


As 2016 opens, it's clear that there is great momentum building in the pro-life movement. A record number of people are now identifying as pro-life ...

... and many are acting on that belief for the first time ever!

Thus far, 40 Days for Life has seen more than 675,000 people stand up and speak out for those who cannot speak for themselves

To build on this momentum, we are launching a new project that can help get even more people praying and working to end abortion where they live.

If you're already a podcast fan, then you'll want to subscribe on iTunes now.

Don't know what a podcast is?

In short, it's an internet-based radio program that you can listen to online, or save to your computer, phone or other portable device to listen to whenever and wherever you want – and the message goes straight from us to you!

We're launching our podcast with the first three episodes:
#1: The culture, 40 days and YOU
#2: Overcoming fear
#3: Hope after 43 years of abortion
Each one is about 25 minutes long, and packed full of stories about exciting victories. The podcast will also include exclusive interviews from pro-life leaders ... and ways YOU can help make a difference where you live.

The best thing about these podcasts? They're easy to find and listen to!

Please subscribe to the podcast – and review the show to help rank and spread the pro-life message through iTunes! We'll add a new show each Tuesday.

As we prepare to mark 43 years of legalized abortion in the United States, the 40 Days for Life podcast is a great way to help recharge your batteries, share some good news in the culture war, and get inspiration going into the next campaign on February 10!

So give it a listen ... and please let us know what you think. We're really excited about this! Here's that link again.
