40 Days for Life sets record
Sep 30, 2010
By STAFF

The 40 Days for Life campaign that began Sept. 22 will have the most locations in its short history.

The pro-life effort, which has occurred twice a year since the fall of 2007, consists of 40 days of prayer and fasting to end abortion, as well as community outreach and peaceful prayer vigils outside abortion clinics.

This fall’s campaign, which will end Oct. 31, will be at 238 sites. Those include locations in 46 states, six Canadian provinces, Australia, Denmark, England and Northern Ireland.

According to 40 Days for Life, here are some of the reported results from the six previous campaigns:

• 2,811 unborn babies have been saved from abortion.

• 35 abortion clinic employees have quit their jobs.

• Six abortion clinics have closed after 40 Days efforts.

Locations for this fall’s 40 Days outreach may be found at http://www.40daysforlife.com/location.cfm. (BP)
