You’ve started something incredible – and the power of God continues to shine through! Even though we are between 40 Days for Life campaigns, great news continues to roll in daily.
In Fort Wayne, Indiana, Cathie notes that the number of abortions at the facility where 40 Days for Life vigils are conducted has gone down. WAY down.
Over the past few years, this facility has scheduled around 10 abortions every week. Two weeks ago, the number was three. And last week, the total number of abortions performed was … ONE.
Cathie says there are several factors contributing to the decrease, but “above all we are witnessing the results of consistent and fervent prayer over the years intensifying with the 40 Days for Life campaigns the past two years and the power of Almighty God.”
We hope and pray that the number will soon drop to ZERO … and we believe that God will soon answer those prayers.
In Columbia, Missouri, volunteers continue to pray on a weekly basis at a Planned Parenthood facility where 40 Days for Life vigils have taken place.
Last week, they heard the center was overbooked. So they anticipated the worst – they recalled a day in November when around two dozen women arrived for abortions.
But last Thursday, people came to pray – some 50 volunteers throughout the course of the day, including two priests, a deacon and two seminary students.
The number of women with appointments was 13, which was surprisingly low. And of those, one simply left without saying a word … and two told the prayer volunteers that they’d changed their minds and would NOT be having abortions!
One of the prayer participants in Columbia tells of a woman in a parked car who said she wanted to talk. This woman said that months ago, she had her mind set on having an abortion. But three times she arrived for her abortion appointment, and all three times there were people outside praying.
