John,

When vigil participants texted, "Something is going on," to Chicago 40 Days for Life leader Joe early this year, he immediately knew.

"They closed," he said to himself. "They closed!"

Joe's intuition was right. A notorious Chicago abortion facility had gone out of business for good.

"That is one of the most joyous days of my life," Joe reflected. "Because I know it meant that lives would be saved."

Check out this video from Joe's celebration--and imagine the joy YOU will experience when you lead a local 40 Days for Life campaign that closes YOUR local abortion facility:

Prior to the closure, God used Joe's vigil to save FIVE babies from abortion at the last desperate moment.

A 40 Days for Life campaign can transform your community. Don't take our word for it. See what Christian and pro-life leaders around the world have to say:

"I am in this movement today because of ordinary people who took on an extraordinary task. My former abortion clinic is closed because of their sacrifice. Babies are alive because of them. Women are no longer being hurt by abortion in their community. You can do this. You can save a life.” --Abby Johnson, former Planned Parenthood employee of the year

"The Holy Father greatly appreciates the dedicated work that you and everyone involved in 40 Days for Life are engaged in to promote respect for the lives of all unborn children." --Pope Francis

"40 Days for Life is a testimony to the power of prayer...God is on the move even amidst the darkness." --Jim Daly, President of Focus on the Family

"40 Days for Life brings 2 Chronicles 7:14 into 21st century focus. As one human race, we become united in prayer." --Dr. Alveda King, niece of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
