Although our Spring, Lenten Sacramento 40 Days for Life is finished, the need for a peaceful, prayerful presence in front of the local abortion clinics, offering women loving and compassionate assistance, continues throughout the year. For more information, please contact:

What is 40 Days for Life? 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 grace, this groundbreaking effort will help bring the light and love of Christ to women facing an unexpected pregnancy, enabling them to choose LIFE for their unborn children.
We believe women deserve to know the truth so that they can make a truly informed decision that can be both life-ending and life-changing.
Therefore, we offer women basic biological facts on fetal development such as the baby's heart begins beating by 21 days and by the time most abortions take place, the baby's arms, legs, ears, eyes, fingers, etc are already formed. "It" is very definitely a human life, just very small in size.
Secondly, we truly care about women and believe women facing an unplanned pregnancy deserve better than abortion. We are there to provide them with loving assistance so that they are better able to choose Life for their unborn child. Whatever they need, we will do everything we can to help provide... a place to stay, assistance with job search, transportation, childcare, counseling, etc. Many resources already exist in our community, but most people going in for abortion are unaware of all the assistance that is available.
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? Please contact (916) 955-1577 for more information and see our "Get Involved" page.
Take a stand for life While all aspects of 40 Days for Life are crucial in our effort to bring Christ to those in need of Him and to end abortion, the most visible component is the peaceful prayer vigil outside the local abortion facilities. You can help make a life-saving impact by joining the vigil site closest to your home, so that we may truly pray for and serve those in need of Christ.
