DAY 3: The Lord’s call for unity

By the grace of God, we see in the pro-life movement different faith communities coming together to defend the most innocent among us.

“Our kickoff was a very special anointed time!” wrote one of the 40 Days for Life team members in Atlanta, Georgia.

Volunteers gathered at First Alliance Church to prepare their hearts for the 40-day journey ahead.

“There were many beautiful Holy Spirit moments at our kickoff,” the Atlanta leader said, “but something that really delighted my heart was seeing Protestant and Catholic, black and white coming together in prayer to seek God’s heart and pray for our community. Already this shows the healing power of God that He longs to pour out everywhere!”

And that is just part of the beauty of 40 Days for Life!

We realize there are divisions among us … but we stand as one when it comes to petitioning our Father in heaven to put an end to the evil of abortion.

Take time today to seek Him in prayer — if possible, at one of the 340+ 40 Days for Life vigils around the world.

Malaga, Spain

“The hours of prayer and fasting have begun in front of the Ginecenter abortion facility in Málaga,” said Juan, one of the local leaders in this Spanish city.

The volunteers are making good on their promise “to go out and give public testimony of the gospel and our faith in the darkest periphery of our society: the door to the abortion center, where the most defenseless are put to death — with the total indifference of so many.”

Malaga’s first 40 Days for Life vigil is dedicated to prayer for the conversion of abortion center workers, for women who think about abortion, for those who have already aborted and for the conversion of minds and hearts of stone within the community.
