Congratulations! You made it through the long, sometimes cold, never easy Lenten 40 Days for Life campaign!
And we are continuing to see reports of how God answered your prayers flowing in!
Vigil participants in North Tonawanda, New York, saw a car with plates all the way from Mississippi show up at Planned Parenthood.
But the occupants left the abortion facility just ten minutes later with BIG smiles on their faces!
"The father shouted that they saw the signs and they changed their minds!" reported Kristen, who leads the local campaign. "This father wasn't just happy; he was joyful as he repeated over and over that [they] were having their baby!"
Dennis, Coletta, and Tim prayed for the family and thanked God for showing them the answer to their prayers.
Saving a baby and a family from abortion is a big deal anywhere, but Kristen said it was particularly encouraging in North Tonawanda.
"We generally have a hard time connecting with folks outside our location," she explained. "This child is going to be cherished, and these parents are going to be blessed."
Cleveland, Ohio
Cleveland pro-lifers host a 40 Days for Life 365 campaign, which means the campaign team will continue praying this week...and all year long!
They'll look to build on their momentum--and there's a lot of momentum, as they saved SIX babies this campaign!
One couple traveled six hours from another state for an abortion appointment, stopped to talk with Fred, and shared with him their baby's ultrasound image.
"The young man was dabbing his tear-filled eyes," Fred explained. "He said, 'You are the first one to congratulate me on my baby.'"
Before leaving, the couple confirmed that they would keep their baby. "Thank you, thank you, thank you," the expectant mother told Fred as she tearfully shook his hand.

Salta, Argentina
An Argentinian woman went to the public hospital for an abortion--and signed the consent form.
But while she waited for the procedure, she stepped outside and spoke to a 40 Days for Life participant. The campaign team offered support.
As a result, the woman postponed her abortion at least for a day.
The next day, she reached back out to request help with medical care and an ultrasound because she had chosen life.
"I wanted to tell you that, thank God, you all appeared to me," the happy mom told 40 Days for Life volunteers. "It was all a miracle, truly."
Kingston, Jamaica
The Kingston 40 Days for Life team has endured incredible persecution this Lent.
Abortion supporters have turned a hose on vigil participants, thrown buckets of water on them, and even pelted them with glass bottles.
Pro-life endurance has borne great fruit, however. Daniel, the 40 Days for Life leader, reports NINE saved babies this Lent!
He has asked for your prayers for another abortion-determined mother to change her mind.
On this rock I will build my church; the gates of hell will not prevail against it.
--Matthew 16:18
Father, we have done battle with the power of evil, and therefore we can have compassion on those still within its grip. We have been freed from the kingdom of darkness, and therefore we can bear witness to your kingdom of light. May the witness of all your people through these 40 Days for Life bear abundant fruit.
