Are you trying to get Catholics to fast at a time that overlaps with Ramadan?
Will I see visions and speak in tongues?
I can barely make it 40 minutes before I’m hungry again.
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.
It begins on the 24th of September in our area.

'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 falls 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.

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)
