How can we help? Ask your church to adopt a day to pray at the Metropolitan Family Planning Inc (MFPI) abortion facility.  Download the Sidewalk Vigil Sheet and print.

• Sidewalk Vigil sign up Sheet (minimum of two people per hour, weekly basis if possible)
• Peace Pledge for individuals (statement of peace is required for each person)
• Private Prayer sign up sheet (for individuals and groups in solidarity in home or church)

Bring the Signup sheet and Peace Pledge to your pro-life coordinator or pastor to enlist their support!  Then report us your church group’s proposed Vigil times by emailing the sheet to 40daysforlifemd@gmail.com, or phone Thomas Trunk, at 301-513-9738. 

Please ask your church to adopt a Half-Day (6-hours).  We invite you to select one or more blocks of 6 hours to commit parishioners (at least 2 at a time) to pray along the sidewalk in front of the MFPI abortuary.

In this new season we appeal to churches - small and large - to make your goal - to enlist ten or so volunteers to pray specific hours at MFPI on the days designated by your church.  We also invite individuals unaffiliated with any church, to logon to our website, view the Vigil Calendar and directly schedule times to vigil. 

WHERE:    MFPI is located at 5915 Greenbelt Road, Berwyn Heights, Maryland Google Map

SIGN UP:  Through your church – or - independently online through this               website - see the Vigil Calendar link in the upper right corner of this webpage.
