Every Year's Best New Year's Resolution: Pray to End Abortion: 40 Days for Life Success Stories

"Kalispell, Montana Planned Parenthood abortion center closes
Last spring, a 40 Days for Life prayer vigil was held in front of a Planned Parenthood abortion clinic in Kalispell, Montana. On November 20, that facility closed. Planned Parenthood admitted it did not have enough customers to keep the doors open. The 40 Days for Life team in Kalispell is convinced – prayer is powerful, and it works! Here's a quick look at the celebration event held outside the former abortion center." See Video: 40 Days for Life: A new 40 Days for Life prayer campaign begins if February, but that doesn't mean you can't start praying now!

"Amazing things happened during this fall's 40 Days for Life effort:
More than 76,000 believers joined together in an historic display of Christian unity, praying and fasting for an end to abortion, and conducting peaceful 40-day prayer vigils outside Planned Parenthood centers and abortion facilities
Reports from around the country documented 614 lives spared from abortion -- and those are just the ones we know about" But even more amazing is the more recent post showing 40 days for life volunteers in California standing before an abortion clinic with a real estate sign in front it.

40 Days for Life Story of a Life saved by 8-Year Old Boy

An eight-year-old boy went with his older sister to pray with a 40 days for life group Bakersfield, California and wound up saving a baby's life. A pregnant woman had been talking with sidewalk counselors for an hour. "Little Hugo stood nearby listening as Denisha explained her reasons for scheduling the abortion. She has two young children who were taken away by Child Protective Services. She expects to get her children back at an upcoming court date, but being pregnant again could complicate the situation. She was also afraid to tell her parents that she is pregnant." The boy listened and then spoke, to read more visit: 40 Days for Life:

Sept.26th -LIFE CHAIN to Kick Off Scranton's 40 Days for Life Campaign

From September 26 to November 4, Scranton PA will unite with more than 80 cities in 33 states for the largest simultaneous pro-life mobilization in history – the nationwide 40 Days for Life campaign.

Our 40 Days for Life Campaign begins with a Life Chain in the 1100 and 1200 blocks of Pittston Ave. on Wed. September 26th at 5:30 p.m. Adults and high school students are encouraged to attend. We will stand and pray along the sidewalk from 5:30 to 6: 45 with pro-life signs as a public witness to the truth of abortion. Call Sue Cirba 343-5099 for information. Signs will be provided.

Please register if you wish to participate in 40 days of fervent prayer and fasting for an end to abortion. Our peaceful vigil takes place outside the local Planned Parenthood, 316 Penn Ave. Scranton. Anyone interested in signing up for the prayer vigil visit www.40daysforlife.com/Scranton to register or call The Pro-Life Center 343-5099.

Cities who have participated in previous 40 days for life campaigns experienced benefits. In some cities abortion rates were reduced by 15%… 20%… 25%… Or more!
Other cities were able to recruit and mobilize hundreds of new people into effective, life-saving efforts and lead post-abortive women to healing ministries. Scranton can also potentially experience these benefits.

This effort can also help lead post-abortive women – and men – into proven and effective healing programs, develop new, dynamic pro-life leaders, and bring churches together in an historic display of Christian unity and action.

What will God accomplish when people of faith across our community and throughout our nation unite for 40 days of prayer and fasting, pulling out all the stops to end the violence of abortion?

We don’t know, but we’re sure excited to find out!
