This was originally posted at another blog of mine that I have deleted. I have combined all my blogs into this one for the sake of simplicity in my already busy life. Jen – 6/13/09.
40 Days for Life starts this Wednesday, 9.24. I’ve never done it before, but I am going to this year.
According to their website, the basis is prayer & fasting (could be food or an activity like in Lent where you give something up). They have devotions starting on 9.23 until 11.03. There is (usually) a vigil in front of an abortion clinic and community outreach where you try to get the pro-life message to everyone in the community.
I am in the lucky place where I can participate–not only do I stay at home now, but I also live 4 blocks from the planned parenthood and can join in during our AM prayer walks. In fact, I am going to go email for more information for our community right now.
Please consider taking part however you can, even if it’s “only” prayer. God Bless.
