Welcome to the MatSu Valley 40 Days for Life website!
Nationwide, over 6,700 moms have chosen life as a result of people just like you peacefully praying outside abortion businesses, offering loving support and assistance to women during the 40 Days for Life.
From February 13th - March 24th, our community will be one of many cities 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.
See the online schedule here to sign-up to pray today!
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:
Valley Women's Health Clinic
Dr. Susan Lemagie
425 East Dahlia Ave
Palmer, AK 99645

Learn more about the national 40 Days for Life campaign.
- 2,210 individual campaigns have taken place in 481 cities
- More than 550,000 have joined together in an historic display of unity to pray and fast for an end to abortion
- More than 15,500 churches have participated in the 40 Days for Life campaigns
- 6,749 lives have been spared from abortion — and those are just the ones we know about
- 75 abortion workers have quit their jobs and walked away from the abortion industry
- 25 abortion businesses completely shut down following local 40 Days for Life campaigns
- Thousands of women and men have been spared from the tragic effects of abortion, including a lifetime of regrets
- More than 2,100 news stories have been featured in newspapers, magazines, radio shows and TV programs from coast to coast ... and overseas
- Many people with past abortion experiences have stepped forward to begin post-abortion healing and recovery
We also offer women resources for post-abortion counseling, loving them on the way into the clinic and also on the way out. Few women actually desire an abortion, but feelings of fear, desperation, and hopelessness can make a woman feel that ending the life of her unborn child is her only option. We are there to compassionately provide her with BETTER choices, better alternatives, so that hope and love replace despair and desperation. There is no judgment, nor condemnation in this ministry, but only empathy and compassion. Many women are now speaking up about their abortion and the life-long regrets they have experienced, through organizations such as Silent No More and Rachel's Vineyard Ministry.
Won't you join us for this important prayerful, peaceful and loving ministry to women?
