WELCOME TO THE SHARONVILLE 40 DAYS FOR LIFE HOMEPAGE! PLEASE CLICK "VIGIL SCHEDULE" ABOVE TO SIGN UP FOR VIGIL HOURS.
YOU can help save lives!
This Spring, from Wednesday, February 13 - Sunday, March 24, 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.
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 facility.
The vigil hours are in 1/2 hour segments from 7:00am - 7:00pm.
Special thanks to the following Churches:
St. Maximilian Kolbe, St. Michael, St. Susanna, St. Elizabeth Ann Seton
These churches have "adopted" certain blocks of time for prayer
If your Church would like to commit to a certain block of time,
please contact Mary Jo Suer at 513-378-4262 or maryjo.suer@gmail.com
