Father's Day Message: TWO MORE TURNAWAYS!

Dear Fathers and Families,

As you enjoy a beautiful and blessed Father's Day:

• Remember in prayer all of the fathers this day who are not thinking about fatherhood but rather of their own selfish interests and desires. 
• Remember the fathers who will elect to end the life of their child this week, even forcing women to do so, because it isn't on their radar to be responsible and loving dads.
• Remember the fathers who have made this decision in the past and suffer on Father's Day realizing this day could have been a joyous one shared with a son or daughter but now grieve a choice that cannot be undone. 
• Remember the grandfathers, brothers, and uncles who will not know the preborn family members whose lives were taken from them and whose voices were never heard. 
• Remember the fathers who will be at Planned Parenthood this week whose heart can be changed if YOU are on the sidewalk in prayer.

There are so many for whom to pray!

There are so many unfilled hours for you to do so!

Below is this week's list of open hours.  If we are not out there in prayer, abortion-minded fathers will have no reason to choose otherwise....we have a duty to speak for the voiceless.  Which day and hour can you be there???

Open Hours This Week: 

Tuesday, 6/18/13:  1 needed at 11:00, noon, and3:00pm; 2 needed at 1:00, 2:00, and 4:00pm  9 hours open!  Only 44% filled!

Wednesday, 6/19/13:  1 needed at 11:00, 1:00, and2:00pm;  2 needed at 8:00, 9:00, noon, 3:00, 4:00, and5:00pm  15 OPEN HOURS!!  Only 25% filled!

Thursday, 6/20/13:   1 needed at 5:00pm

Friday, 6/21/13:  1 needed at 2:00pm
  
Go to vigilforlife.org or email info@vigilforlife.org to sign up for one of these hours or a monthly recurrent hour. 

It is, no doubt, a sacrifice to be out there praying. God has a master plan and trust Him we must! 

"...God wants only that we be made holy.  Whatever he gives or permits in this life he gives for this purpose: trial as well as consolation, hurt and mockery and abuse, the world's harassments and the devil's temptations, hunger and thirst; illness and poverty as well as pleasure and prosperity.  God permits all of these for our good."  (St. Catherine of Siena)

TWO MORE TURNAWAYS LAST WEDNESDAY!

• First was a pregnant woman who left her car parked at Planned Parenthood and headed over to the Women's Care Center. 
• A woman who never entered Planned Parenthood, got in her car and drove across the street

Praise God for giving us these signs of prayers answered!
