Email from 40 Days for Life It didn't take long to save our first baby John, Just hours into the largest Lenten 40 Days for Life campaign ever, we received the FIRST report of a baby saved from abortion thanks to YOUR prayers! An abortion-minded woman in Tulua, Colombia, sought advice from a friend who had previously experienced a crisis pregnancy. That friend persuaded the expectant mother to go to the abortion facility--not to end her child's life, but to pray with 40 Days for Life volunteers! Both women joined the vigil, and the time in prayer led the pregnant mom to change her mind about abortion! After praying, 40 Days for Life participants took the mom for an ultrasound, which cemented the life decision. "She chose to save her baby's life thanks to the prayer campaign that began today," said 4o Days for Life director of Latin American campaigns Lourdes Varela. "Glory to God!" Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Prayer warriors in the City of Brotherly Love got an early start saving babies from abortion because they participate in the 40 Days for Life 365 initiative. Monique, the longtime Philadelphia leader, hopes these year-round successes will spur more pro-lifers to hit the sidewalk to pray for an end to abortion. "Baby saved!" Monique told her volunteers. "God is working, but we need help keeping the chain of prayer going. Will you commit to be a lifesaving link in our chain?" Milwaukee, Wisconsin Prayer warriors in the Cream City also started the campaign with momentum from their 40 Days for Life 365 efforts. On Tuesday, God used the Milwaukee team to save FIVE babies! "Five saves," reflected Dan, the longtime Milwaukee co-leader. "Just outstanding. God bless these people. I work with walking saints." When Joseph awoke, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took his wife into his home. --Matthew 1:24 Lord, thank you for the example of Joseph, who shows us what it means to live with courage in the wake of fear and uncertainty. Bless all fathers with the strength of Joseph so that in every circumstance they may place their trust in you. Help all fathers to answer the call of sacrificial love that comes with the birth of every child. Give them the strength to be not afraid. Amen.
