Thank you for your prayers, mlizzy. The Lord will not forget your labor of love.
It's now the day after the end of the fall 40 Days
for Life campaign.
Go ahead and take a deep breath -- you need it! It's
important to re-charge after 40 intense days of
prayer, fasting, vigil and outreach.
But you know what? Your efforts are working. So after
you catch your breath, please don't stop!
All the reports are still coming in, but as of now we
know of at least ...
... 534 babies -- and their moms -- spared from
abortion during this fall's campaign!
The credit belongs to God -- and YOU!
A report from Houston, Texas shows just how much the
abortion industry hates it when there are people on
the sidewalk praying and offering real alternatives
to women.
There's a pro-life pregnancy resource center around
the corner from the Planned Parenthood facility where
the Houston 40 Days for Life vigil was conducted. A
counselor met two women outside the abortion facility
recently -- and convinced them to go to the pro-life
center rather than entering Planned Parenthood.
The clinic escorts were furious.
The head escort told the women that if they didn't
move their cars out of the Planned Parenthood parking
lot, she would have them towed.
Our Houston team reports, "The chances of these two
women ever returning to Planned Parenthood are
probably pretty slim based on the behavior of the
escort. It is great when people are able to witness
for themselves some of Planned Parenthood's true
colors."
Planned Parenthood wasn't the only one whose true
colors were on display this fall. YOUR true colors
also shined brightly for all to see! And we have
pictures that tell the story.
Here's a photo taken outside of Planned Parenthood in
Phoenix, Arizona. The building's on a corner, so the
40 Days for Life vigil was able to almost surround
the place with prayer. Check it out at:

St. Cloud, Minnesota conducted its first 40 Days for
Life campaign this fall. Here's where you can see a
picture of a faithful group praying outside Planned
Parenthood (photo courtesy of Sue Schulzetenberg of
The Visitor, the Catholic newspaper in St. Cloud):

Also along for their first 40 Days for Life campaign
this fall was the team in Kitchener, Ontario -- where
it started getting chilly as the days got shorter:

"We continue to be a small group, but we are strong
and do our best to be a witness to those who come to
Planned Parenthood," said Michelle in Lufkin, Texas.
"We are confident that our prayers change lives even
when we do not know the outcome. We will continue to
pray in front of Planned Parenthood throughout the
year."
