Little Rock, Arkansas

October 10, 2017

At the 40 Days for Life vigil in Little Rock, the abortion center staff has been known to turn the sprinklers on – trying to soak participants.

The idea is to keep the prayer volunteers away from the sidewalk.

One day during the campaign, a landscaper had parked across the street to do some work. He approached the security guard and asked him to turn off the sprinklers. Not only was his truck getting wet, but he also said it was a traffic hazard.

The guard became hostile and started cursing, so the landscaper called the police. It’s worth noting that the landscaper is a former police officer.

Five officers in three patrol cars soon arrived to take a report … and one of the prayer volunteers added information about the sprinklers.

“We have not had any luck getting them stopped,” said Mary in Little Rock. But maybe with a former office filing a complaint, “we will see!”

DAY 15: Tough times in Canada

October 11, 2017

Pray for our friends in Canada.

It seems the government in the province of Ontario doesn’t care much for free speech.

Legislation was proposed that could create “safe access zones” around abortion centers – a buffer zone of at least 50 meters “where activities such as advising a person to refrain from accessing abortion services … would be prohibited.”

As it was written, the measure could have even forbidden sidewalk counselors from handing out critical life-saving information.

Fortunately, the proposal ran into a legislative roadblock that should keep it locked up in committee. Please pray that it stays there!

40 Days for Life board chair Matt Britton just visited several campaign locations in Ontario (including Oakville, above).

Despite the hostility towards free speech and religious liberty mounting against Christian witness on the sidewalks … he found 40 Days for Life participants outside abortion facilities who were fervently praying for an end to abortion in Canada.
