40 Days For Life At Spring Street - Mid-Point Rally

Today's usual stint at the Spring Street Planned Parenthood was augmented a bit by the 40 Days for Life Mid-Point Rally.  These rallies are occurring at about this time, as we are near the mid-point of Lent.  We were priviledged today to have with us Shawn Carney, Campaign Director of 40 Days for Life and a co-founder of the original 40 Days for Life in Bryan Texas. 

You'll see two clips below.  The first is that of pro-life activists gathering and praying during the rally, before Shawn's address to us.  Note that the people in the orange vests are "pro-choice clinic escorts".  We refer to them as "deathscorts".  Click here if you can't see embedded video.



Now you'll see Shawn's talk.  One thing you might want to note is the deathscorts in the background.  They try to ignore Shawn, as they try to ignore us week after week.  They can't; the words will sink in - what they do with those words is another matter.  We must pray for them.  Click here if you can't see embedded video.

40 Days For Life In Montgomery County MD - Important Announcements

There are two locations this year for the 40 Days for Life effort in front of abortion mills.  Each has their own Kick-Off Prayer Rally (on different days).

1) In Germantown, MD, this effort will be held on Wisteria Drive, at the center where Leroy Carhart is committing late term abortions.  The rally will be held Sunday, March 6 at 7pm, at the parish hall of Mother Seton Church.  More info can be found at http://www.40daysforlife.com/germantown/

2) In Silver Spring, MD, this effort will be held at 1400 Spring Street, which houses a branch facility of Planned Parenthood of Metropolitan DC.  The rally will be held Tuesday, March 8, 7pm at St Bernadette School.  David Bereit, the National Director of 40 Days for Life, will be the main speaker.  More info can be found at http://www.40daysforlife.com/silverspring/

Those of you in Montgomery County MD, I encourage you to join in either of these two efforts - particularly if you aren't already active in front of an abortuary.  Those of you in other areas check out the main website at top and look for a prayer effort nearby.  This campaign starts March 9th, that is, Ash Wednesday and runs through April 17th, Easter Sunday.  This would make an excellent Lenten practice, that you just might be moved to do during the rest of the year!
