Wiesbaden, Germany

40 Days for Life volunteers in Wiesbaden can't be ignored by their community. They pray in a downtown area, marked by pedestrian traffic.

"People walk by and read the posters and ask what exactly we are doing," said the Wiesbaden team. "Some shake their heads and say we are crazy."

But some passersby have stopped and joined the vigil.

"It has been peaceful praying together as a community," the team reported.

Pro-life momentum is growing in Palmdale, California.

"Our largest gathering yet!" said 40 Days for Life leader Julio, describing a prayer procession to his community's Planned Parenthood facility.

Featuring clergy and a diverse group of nearly 100 peaceful prayer warriors, the event provided a powerful witness to the community that Southern California is pro-life!

Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.

— Psalm 82:4

Father, may you empower the hundreds today who are serving in our pregnancy help centers. Grant those answering calls, providing ultrasound and following up with a bold spirit of truth, love and perseverance.
