While we do care deeply for the unborn, our concern is also for all those affected by abortion or who are hurting from such a decision. There is help! Locally we recommend this program:

Fort Collins 40 Days for Life in its 5th campaign is again noted on the national website on February 21, 2013: http://40daysforlife.com/blog/?p=4004
“What do you get out of this?”
The question, from a young man smoking a cigarette outside the Planned Parenthood building, was directed at the volunteers who offered him an information card.
“We do not get anything,” replied Scott, one of the volunteers. “We are here to help you.”
So the man told his story. He has a two-year-old daughter … but his wife was inside for an abortion. “Everyone should have a choice,” the man insisted — throughout all nine months of pregnancy.
As the two men continued to talk, the young father said, “I have seen other protesters, but you are different.”
The man finally took the card Scott had offered him — it includes information about post-abortive help.
“When his wife came over to get him,” said Linda in Fort Collins, “her eyes revealed the pain in her soul. It is this pain that we so much pray to prevent from happening.”

On October 22nd, 2011 the Fort Collins 40 Days for Life was featured on the national website:
-------------------------------------------------------
FORT COLLINS, COLORADO
-------------------------------------------------------
Fort Collins is in the midst of its second 40 Days for
Life campaign. "This is a growing, grassroots pro-life
effort," said Linda in Fort Collins.
The vigil is across the street from Colorado State
University. The first campaign drew a lot of negative
attention. Not so this time.
"Also, there are about 30 churches involved at some
level -- and five have the big 40 Days for Life banner
proudly displayed on their buildings for all to see,"
she said.
The campaign is getting a big boost from a nearby
Catholic church "whose new pastor has opened his heart
and arms and that of the parish to the 40 Days for Life."
This church is hosting 40 Days for Life events -- and
they've set aside space for what they're calling the
40 Days Cafe. Coffee and other drinks are available –
and a nearby restaurant has donated food for breakfast
and lunch.
"This has been a very great blessing for all concerned,"
Linda said.
I was able to meet Linda and the 40 Days for Life team
in Fort Collins. Here's a link to the photo:

This is the first 40 Days for Life campaign in Fort Collins, and new volunteers are excited to have the opportunity to pray for an end to abortion.
“No matter how many rude gestures and remarks we got, we also received waves of support, honks of approval, even a friendly hello from a mom who slowed down enough for her two toddlers to see us,” said Maria, one of the vigil participants.
“It was truly a rewarding evening, knowing we have made an impact.”
Speaking of men joining the campaign, a local Knights of Columbus council prayed together at the Fort Collins vigil. I can’t say enough about the Knights and the strong, faithful support they continue to show for 40 Days for Life!
Here are the Knights of Columbus in Fort Collins:
