365 For Life Needs You!

Please check your schedules and commit to a regular prayer time out on the sidewalk of Planned Parenthood.  Just because 40 Days for Life is over, we can't turn a blind eye to the mothers, fathers, and babies who need us.  Abortions still go on throughout the year and nothing would please Planned Parenthood more than to see us disappear until next fall.  The parking lot was full last week and it will continue this way without prayer and vigilance.  As I told you last week, those out on the sidewalk DO make a difference; babies are saved!  Now is the time to dig deep, put on warm clothes, and show the abortion workers, the clients, and those who drive by that we will not quit until abortion is no more.  Below are the openings this week; find an hour to sacrifice!  What better way to show thanksgiving for the gift of life and prepare for the birth of Our Lord.....
Hours Open Next Week:

  •  Monday, 11/26/12:  1 person needed at 10:00am
