I got this in an email. Don’t know if there is an article about it.

YOU made “Unplanned” a TOP 10 national bestseller —
in two different ways. Let me explain ...

*** FIRST ***

On Monday night ... 21,613 people participated in the
“Unplanned” webcast, where Abby Johnson, former Planned
Parenthood clinic director, revealed the shocking details
of what she witnessed inside the abortion industry ...
and why she resigned and joined the pro-life movement.

You can still listen to or download the entire audio
recording of the webcast online at:

The webcast was held on the eve of the launch of
“Unplanned” — Abby’s landmark book, published by
Tyndale House, Focus on the Family, and Ignatius Press
in an historic collaborative venture between Protestant,
Evangelical and Catholic organizations.

On Monday night and Tuesday, you were given the
opportunity to grab the very first copies of “Unplanned”
— to help get the book off to a BIG start. And you did!

On DAY ONE of the release of “Unplanned,” Ignatius Press
— which published a special edition of the book with
additional bonus content — e-mailed me:

“I can tell you this — we’ve NEVER had this many
orders in one day in our history!”

Sales were so strong that Ignatius’ entire first print
run of “Unplanned” SOLD OUT — and they’re now in the
process of getting it rapidly reprinted!

And, thanks to you, in the first 24 hours of release,
“Unplanned” shot up to the #8 bestseller on Amazon and
#3 at Barnes & Noble — UNBELIEVABLE!! You made it a
Top 10 national bestseller!

The book is still doing great, and has stayed in the
top 100 bestselling books in America since release.

As people are now reading “Unplanned,” amazing reviews
are pouring in from leaders, journalists, book reviewers,
and organizations.

As one example, I urge you to read the great review by
my good friend and top pro-life blogger, Jill Stanek,
which was featured on WorldNetDaily:

Jill explains how “Unplanned” reveals the vital role
40 Days for Life played in Abby’s conversion, and Jill
kindly adds: “In my opinion, the 40 Days for Life
campaign has been the most successful pro-life
invention of the last decade, maybe more.”

That brings me to the second (and more important) way
YOU made a national bestseller.

*** SECOND ***

Your prayers — and the prayers of hundreds of thousands
of other faithful believers — are what made Abby’s
story a reality in the first place.

When Abby first walked out of her Planned Parenthood
facility — during the 40 Days for Life campaign with
a round-the-clock prayer vigil outside — she came to
my office next door in tears, expressing deep remorse
and her urgent desire to get out of the abortion
industry forever. Abby told me: “If you weren’t there,
I wouldn’t be here.”

Abby knows from personal experience the power of 40 days
of prayer, fasting, vigil, and outreach — the
components that make up a 40 Days for Life campaign.

And Abby understands why 40 Days for Life has generated
such profound results:

* 1,085 campaigns have been conducted in 337 cities
across America and six other countries

* More than 400,000 people have participated from
over 13,000 church congregations

* 3,599 lives have been spared from abortion — and
those are just the ones we know about

* 43 abortion workers have walked away from their
jobs in the abortion industry, including Abby

* Nine abortion facilities have completely shut down
following local 40 Days for Life campaigns outside

The next 40 Days for Life campaign will be held from
March 9 through April 17, and YOUR community has the
opportunity to experience transformational results
like these.

If God is stirring your heart to help bring 40 Days
for Life to your community — or to help make your
next local campaign the biggest and best ever — I
would encourage you to download our freshly-updated
“40 Days for Life Campaign Overview Report” as a PDF

Applications for the spring 40 Days for Life open next
Monday, January 17.

While you’re waiting, enjoy reading the report — which
will help you find out what’s involved in conducting a
40 Days for Life campaign in your city, and determine
if it’s a fit.

We have no idea what God has in store for the next
40 Days for Life, but based on the miracles He has
accomplished during every other past campaign, we’re
expecting BIG things!

For Life,

Shawn Carney
Campaign Director
