This spring, from February 6 - March 16, our community will be one of 59 cities in 31 states joining together for one of the largest simultaneous pro-life mobilizations in history -- the national 40 Days for Life campaign. 40 Days for Life is a focused pro-life effort that consists of: We are praying that, with God's help, this groundbreaking effort will mark the beginning of the end of abortion in our city and throughout America. We believe that God is calling us to cover every Planned Parenthood in this city with prayer. We still need people to cover these sites: Are you looking for something that you could give up as a Lenten sacrifice this Easter season? Something that will draw you closer to Jesus and unite you with Him as He carries His cross to Calvary for you? I have a great idea! How about an hour or two of your time each day, praying in front of a Planned Parenthood, praying for the unborn who are being sentenced to death there? Jesus was innocent and yet He freely gave Himself up for us who are sinners so that we may live. These babies are innocent; let's give up just a bit of ourselves so that they can live. It is our turn to walk with Jesus to Calvary. "How can we help?" you say. Thanks for asking! We need prayer warriors of all kinds, of all ages, from all stages of life. You are all a very valuable and vital part of saving the lives of the unborn. When the community sees us out there praying in front of an abortion clinic, it sends a message of hope and truth. It gives those going in to the clinic the opportunity to rethink what they are really doing, and to choose life. It also gives those working in the clinic the opportunity to see that we are praying for them as well. We love them just as much as the babies and we must be praying for them to come to the truth. Commit an hour a day Locate the Planned Parenthood nearest your home or maybe nearest your work. Leave home an hour early and go to the Planned Parenthood and pray. Go there after work and pray. Bring your family there and pray. Give up an hour or two of television, and spend that time praying instead. Go there on the weekends even if they are not open and pray. God will bless your efforts! Adopt a day Gather your prayer group, your homeschool group, your cooking club, your sports team, men's club, card club, boy/girl scouts, youth group, swim team, bowling team, friends, neighbors, or anyone else you can think of. Take this opportunity to organize a few people and cover an entire 3, 6, 8, 12, or 24 hour period. This is a great way to unite the body of Christ while saving the lives of the unborn. Can you imagine the stories you will be able to tell on Easter Sunday this year! Talk about a Resurrection Sunday celebration! We are going to be able to tell stories of little hearts that are still beating simply because someone was out on the street, peacefully praying and offering hope and healing to the lost. It doesn't get any better than that! Adopt a day of the week for the entire 40 days There are thousands of churches here in the Phoenix Metro Area, filled with people who believe abortion is wrong and that we should be speaking up for those who cannot speak for themselves. There are sadly 13 Planned Parenthood sites here in the Metro. Hmmmm.... Thousands of churches filled with pro-lifers, 13 Planned Parenthoods, what are we waiting for?! We have plenty of people to cover every one of these sites in prayer and fasting. This is our opportunity to step up to the plate, to organize and stand as one voice throughout the Phoenix Metro, to stand as one voice for those who have no voice, the unborn. Gather a group of your fellow pro-lifers, locate the Planned Parenthood nearest you, pick a day of the week, and cover that day each week for the entire 40 days. If your church is big enough, you could organize different groups to each take a day of the week and perhaps cover every day for the entire 40 days! Luke 1:37 "Nothing is impossible with God" Imagine if every church in the Metro area organized themselves to speak up for the unborn, and fasted and prayed for the end of abortion. Imagine if we all committed to standing on the front lines in front of Planned Parenthood praying peacefully. I believe that there would soon be no more abortions. Confined to your home? Can't come out? Contact us and let us know you are praying with us anyway. This campaign is about prayer and fasting for an end to abortion so everyone can participate on the street, at home, at church, in your car, on the bus, everywhere. Thank you and God bless you for praying for the least of these! 40 Days for life is a simple way to ask God to end the tragedy of abortion. We are here to peacefully, prayerfully and lawfully stand up for the unborn who cannot stand up for themselves. We are hear to speak truth to the mothers who are going in to make a life changing decision. We want them to know the truth about the baby that is within their womb. We want them to know the truth about the consequences of their decision and we want to offer them better, loving choices. Take a stand for life While all aspects of 40 Days for Life are crucial in our effort to end abortion, the most visible component is the peaceful prayer vigil outside the local abortion (or Planned Parenthood) facility. You can help make a life-saving impact by joining our local vigil. Please contact us to learn more, to sign up for specific hours, or to let us know how you feel called to serve God in this effort. Be sure to sign-up for updates and prayer requests using the form at the top right of this page, and browse through the rest of this site to find out how YOU can help make a lifesaving impact as part of our local 40 Days for Life campaign. |
