Now more than ever we need this powerful prayer tool of the 40 days of prayer and fasting. To sign up and commit see

or do what you can. Last year great inroads in the fight against the culture of death were made. This is supernatural warfare here! Much is at stake in this election year.

This prayer and sacrifice effort begins on September 24th. Please be a part.

Ave Maria!

Are you trying to get Catholics to fast at a time that overlaps with Ramadan?

Will I see visions and speak in tongues?

40 Days for Life
 
Pray the Rosary. 
Pray without ceasing.
 
Pray in your own area in front of a Planned Parenthood Clinic.  (Even stay in your car if you wish -- just pray!)

Are you a Catholic Charismatic?

If you were, you would realize that this is about stopping abortions in your own area. Please pray!!

the info at the site shows that the 40 day fast and prayer was to end today, not begin.

Maybe we are talking about two different things.

40 Days for Life

'Being Human' spotlights 40 Days for Life just prior to kickoff!

Just days before simultaneous campaigns launch in more than 170 cities in the United States and Canada, the 40 Days for Life effort was the focus of a world premiere documentary on the EWTN global network. Here's a brief excerpt:

"This episode of BeingHuman focuses on the stories and successes that prayer, fasting, and peaceful vigil have accomplished through 40 Days for Life campaigns that have now spread across the country and around the globe," said national campaign director David Bereit. "This show offers a great opportunity to get people in communities across the nation involved in this initiative."

The campaign runs September 24 through November 2.

 

Which will be the first abortion-free states?

“Despite the increasingly shrill rhetoric of the abortion industry, the simple truth is that business is off,” said David Bereit, national campaign director of 40 Days for Life.

“Abortion numbers have dropped so significantly that several states are now down to only one or two remaining abortion centers," he said. "This fall’s 40 Days for Life campaign presents a great opportunity to finish the life-saving work in these states, creating abortion-free zones and encouraging other states to follow suit.”

This fall, 40 Days for Life vigils will take place at the last remaining abortion centers in North Dakota and Mississippi, states which each have only one remaining abortion facility, as well as the last two abortion facilities in Nebraska and the last two in Kentucky.

Please sign up for 40 Days for Life updates using the box at the upper right to see how you can take part in the ambitious plans God has put before us.

 

Get involved with 40 Days for Life!

David Bereit, the national campaign director of 40 Days for Life, recently spoke to a pro-life group in Baltimore. His remarks were captured in the video below. He related stories about some of the campaign's heroes and listed six key points involved in discerning your role in this fall's 40 Days for Life effort:

  • It's necessary
  • It's possible
  • It's you
  • It's hard
  • It's worth it
  • It's time

Watch the video ... then find a local campaign to get involved with!

Thanks for posting this, as it is very important.

I know, it’s just that seeing visions and speaking in tongues is, you know, cool.

Because the post was put up on Free Republic, not waitingfortherapture.com. If the writer is not interested in differing viewpoints, FR was a bad choice of parchment.

My prayer vigil begins next Saturday at the local Planned Parenthood facility. I encourage all to pray for the next 40 days whether you take a public stance and whether or not you fast.

Choose Life. (Deut.30:19)
