Chicago, IL
HOME: Welcome to 40 Days for Life

YOU can help save lives!

This fall, from September 22 - October 31, our community will be one of more than 170 cities in 45 states joining together for the largest and longest coordinated pro-life mobilization in history -- the 40 Days for Life campaign.

40 Days for Life is a focused pro-life effort that consists of:

  • 40 days of prayer and fasting
  • 40 days of peaceful vigil
  • 40 days of community outreach

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.

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 facility.   

You can help make a life-saving impact by joining our local vigil at:

Albany Medical Surgical Center / Family Planning Associates
5086 N. Elston Ave.
Chicago, IL.

Near the intersection of Cicero Ave. & Elston Ave.  

This location was picked by the local organizing committee because of its location, parking and overall comfort level for volunteers. 

Sign up to participate in our local 40 Days for Life vigil by clicking the "Vigil Schedule" link at the top of this page.
