CANDLELIGHT VIGIL

SUNDAY January 22 in front of 
Family Planning Associates
2777 Long Beach Blvd.
5:00pm to 6:00pm

Wonderful news!

As of December 31 for the year of 2011 we know of 150 babies that were saved from abortion from FPA. May GOD BLESS all those who prayed and counseled and volunteered to be outside FPA in 2011.

THANK YOU to all who are comming by the clinic for what ever time you can.
 
Take a stand for life - GET INVOLVED 
Can you spend just a minute or two to pray?
You just being there may help a person start a whole new 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 
Family Planning Associates facility at 
2777 Long Beach Blvd.. Long Beach.
People from newly born to those in their 90s have joined in being God's representatives for the unborn. To help save more babies CLICK on GET INVOLVED and GET INVOLVED! To sign up for the vigil CLICK on the "VIGIL SCHEDULE" tab above. ANY TIME YOU HAVE TO COME BY AND PRAY IS WELCOME. IF YOU CAN"T COMMIT TO A TIME COME WHEN YOU CAN AND SPEND A MINUTE. 
Don't worry about the schedule. You won't regret it.

Witnessing with a happy heart and an infectious smile are very important qualities in winning people over. I can attest to this since witnessing Elizabeth, a first time participant "with people present". Her smile is big and genuine, no doubt from the presence of the Holy Spirit. She wanted to be "trained" on how to approach people. We gave her some pamphlets and some simple instructions on respect for the client and lo and behold people came to her! All God needs is your willing heart. 
We always recommend that you attend a training so that you can be equiped with the proper resources and references. Many women will need some ongoing support.
