40 DAYS FOR LIFE

We are in full planning mode for our upcoming 40 Days for Life campaign! This year’s 24/7 campaign starts on Wednesday, September 23rd at 6p and ends on Sunday, Nov. 1st at 5p. We are still looking to fill some of our volunteer positions:

Vigil Day Captain

Ensure that either 12 hours or 24 hours of the same day each week throughout the 40 days has a presence on the sidewalk by calling people to fill any open spots. (A great way for someone who cannot make it to the sidewalk to still be very involved with sharing the Gospel of Life.)

Emergency Prayer Warrior – Day (8a-6p) or Night (6p-8a)

Put your name on the list to fill hours when all other resources have been exhausted. You can give your availability for getting these calls.

If you are able to help us in either of these capacities, please call Gwen Finnegan at (608)393-8545 or e-mail Gwen at info@vigilforlife.org

Prayer to End Abortion By: Rev. Frank Pavone, Priests for Life

Lord God, I thank you today for the gift of
my life, and for the lives of all my brothers
and sisters. I know there is nothing that
destroys more life than abortion, yet I rejoice
that you have conquered death by the
Resurrection of Your Son.

I am ready to do my part in ending abortion.
Today I commit myself never to be silent,
never to be passive, never to be forgetful
of the unborn.

I commit myself to be active in the pro-life
movement and never to stop defending life
until all my brothers and sisters are protected,
and our nation once again becomes a nation
with liberty and justice not just for some, but
for all. Through Christ our Lord, Amen!
