Shawn Carney, the 40 Days for Life campaign director, recently visited 40 Days for Life campaigns New York City. Shawn made a short video account of his visit to the 40 Days for Life campaign in the city labeled “the abortion capital of America.”

BLESSINGS FROM
40 DAYS FOR LIFE
The faithfulness of God. Nothing is impossible for Him. The faithfulness of the people defending the most helpless in our society.

Seeing a young woman leave the clinic because our sidewalk counselor convinced her abortion was the wrong choice.

Finding out there is growing pro-life support is the greatest blessing I've experienced.

The renewed hope that abortion will someday come to an end in our country because of the growing number of people getting involved and the success that we are seeing.

Personal spiritual growth – big time!

Showing our children how to witness to this truth, amid fear, embarrasment, and uncomfortable situations.

I am more determined to start a pregnancy care in our community, as this campaign has been an encouragement to me.

We take a lot of flack from passers by, but it gave me new hope for all of us and the work we do.

Knowing that so many people care.

There were some pretty awful weather days and people would be there through it all. You have no idea what kind of impact that is making on people.

Seeing the positive reaction of our community to the prayer vigil outside Planned Parenthood.

Hearing the stories about the babies being saved and how God is working in the lives of those who chose to keep their babies.

Being able to pray and fast with other pro-life people and know that we are making a difference.

In some small way I have been able to make amends for helping a realitive obtain an abortion years ago.

Seeing our Students for Life group increase our resolve and activity to defend life, particularly after visiting the 40 Days For Life vigil.

Taking my religion class of 16- and 17-year-olds to pray with me at the clinic, and seeing the young people really get it.

A deepened connection with God and the feeling that I heard his call and I was answering it.

Getting others to join this effort andseeing their eyes and hearts opened for the first time – those that were lukewarm.

Having the whole family, including children, stand together and pray outside the clinic.

Our prayerful presence during chilly rain by which we witnessed to the value of each human life and the power of being united in prayer.

I am not afraid to speak up against abortion any longer because I know I am not alone.

The effects of inceased emphasis on peaceful witness and prayer – a more open approach and accepting God's will.

My children reading the signs held by the praying people, asked questions about abortion and opened a new dialog for us.

Overcoming my fear of standing in front of Planned Parenthood. When I got to the site and saw it was good vs. evil, I knew I was standing for good.

It was great to see the effect of prayer in that our local Planned Parenthood in Kalispell closed!
