40
Days for Life Campaigns to Start Feb. 17 in Delaware
-
Dover and Wilmington will participate in the national 40
Days for Life campaign, which runs from February 17 – March 28, 2010. The effort
focuses on prayer and fasting as a means to end
abortion in America. By targeting specific local abortion clinics, it is hoped
that persistence will result in their closing. The effort, begun in 2006 by
David Bereit, national director of the campaign, has resulted in numerous
closings of abortion facilities, as well as conversions of clinic workers and
most importantly, thousands of saved babies.
A prayerful presence is needed consistently at the
AWMS and Planned Parent-hood clinics during hours of operation (most campaigns
are 24/7). Both Delaware events are registered with the national campaign at
www.40daysforlife.com and those willing to participate may sign up on a calendar
once it is operational. The Wilmington effort is in need of a director who will
coordinate volunteers, call churches and publicize the event. Anyone interested,
please call Nicole at 302-650-8942.
