Isn't Planned Parenthood against building walls? John, When you go pray at a 40 Days for Life vigil, you might not always witness a baby saved from abortion. That's because the majority of women who choose life in response to YOUR prayers never say a word to indicate that they've changed their minds. But the abortion industry routinely makes it clear that, even if you don't see results, it's bad for business when you show up to pray. Case in point: Before this fall's campaign began, the Annapolis, Maryland, Planned Parenthood built a brick wall to block clients from seeing 40 Days for Life participants and their offers of life-affirming abortion alternatives. "The new wall shows another way our vigils have had an impact," wrote Bill, who leads the campaign in Annapolis. "We knew it was coming when contractors were out measuring for bids last campaign." Bill noted that his team has already identified where to lawfully stand to continue reaching abortion-vulnerable moms. "I think it will be a good waste of Planned Parenthood's funds," he added. Barcelona, Spain Prayer warriors in Spain face some of the harshest anti-pro-life speech laws in the world. But they are still getting their message--and their prayers--out there! A young woman recently approached vigil participants to share how she was able to empower her adopted daughter's biological mother to choose life instead of having an abortion. The woman was particularly excited to encounter the vigil because it was that daughter's birthday. The enthusiastic mother plans to join the vigil. "She will join us to pray," wrote the Barcelona leadership team. "God is great!!" Sheboygan, Wisconsin In Wisconsin, the Lord's Day coincides with another revered day: Green Bay Packer Sunday. But during her recent visit, former Planned Parenthood manager Ramona Trevino found that cheeseheads prioritize their faith over football. They skipped the game to join a 40 Days for Life rally. "Campaign leader Germaine started the event by thanking Packers fans for choosing to be at the vigil kickoff rally instead of on the couch watching the Packers kick off," Ramona reported. The ecumenical rally featured a Catholic priest and a Lutheran pastor. It also drew attention from the media, as a newspaper reporter joined the event. While they were there, the time came for her to have her child, and she gave birth to her firstborn son. She wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.” --Luke 2:6-7 Dear Jesus, you entered the world through the “yes” of your mother. Help us to say “yes” to the needs of those around us, especially the needs of expectant mothers. Open our hearts so that we might generously share your love with others, and help us to be a refuge for women and children seeking safety and care. Amen.
