Prayer for 40 Days for Life

Heavenly Father, You have given us a gracious gift, an opportunity to serve You and those You have said are so precious to You, the smallest of little children, the preborn babies.  We pray that You will bless our efforts to set aside 40 Days across our nation for fasting, prayer and 24-hour vigil.

Father, pour down Your blessings and grace on us today and give us all that we need to do Your will.  Grant us the wisdom, the fortitude & love to plan & carry out this life renewing program in our city.  Touch the hearts of those with the talents and resources we need, and grant them courage to step forward to be a part of these 40 Days for Life.

Bles
s our efforts, Lord, and let them bring peace to our communities and a renewed reverence for all life, most particularly a commitment to defending our preborn brothers and sisters, the handicapped, the abused and neglected and the elderly.  Use our humble efforts to save the lives of preborn babies, to transform broken hearts and to bring those who work in our abortion centers to renewed life through repentance.

Living God, creator of all Life, let these vigils become an offering to You from the residents of our city, state, nation and worldwide community, glorifying You and bearing witness to Your intimate and sacred presence in the life of every human being You craete.  We ask all of this in the Name of Your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.  Amen.

YOU can help save lives!

This fall, from September 24 - November 2, Madison, WI 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 (or Planned Parenthood) facility.

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

Planned Parenthood
3706 Orin Road
Madison, WI

Planned Parenthood is across the street from Madison Area Technical College (MATC) on Stoughton Road/Hwy. 51.  Click here for a map with it's location.

Click here if you'd like to see a bus route for those UW-Madison students who would also like to attend.
