YOU can help save lives!
This fall, from September 24 - November 2, our community 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 facity, Planned Parenthood of Greater Iowa.
You can help make a life-saving impact by joining our local vigil at:
Planned Parenthood of Greater Iowa
4409 Stone Avenue
Sioux City, IA 51106
Across the street from Burger King on Hwy 20 & Stone Ave; Next to Super 8; West of Western Iowa Tech
