| |  This is 40 Days for Life-NYC in action! Join us! Dear Friend for Life! We at EMC invite you to attend our kick off our Lenten 2012-40 Days for Life campaign with a prayer rally on Friday night, February 17th, 2012, at the New Life International Outreach Church, at 2757 Morris Avenue Bronx, NY 10468, from 6:45PM till 9:00PM. We will feature numerous pastors and pro-life leaders from NYC including Pastor Councilman Fernando Cabrera, Pastor Bill Devlin, Catholic priests, and others. On February 22nd, we launch our tenth 40 Days for Life campaign over the last five years, because we must persevere in our life-saving outreach to moms in crisis and to our often hard hearted community in America's Abortion Capital. (Of course, our outreach goes on for 27 years now, with our dozen EMC FrontLine Life centers throughout the City reaching close to 7,000 girls and women, per year.) Would you please join us for our Kick Off Rally for prayer and then listen to our plan, and let the Holy Spirit inspire you? Our Lenten campaign of prayer, witness and outreach will focus at the doorstep of one of America's most notorious abortion centers, Dr. Emily's at 560 Southern Blvd, in the South Bronx, between February 22nd and April 1st. Our times of vigil there at Dr. Emily's? Monday and Thursday from 9AM till 5PM. Tuesday, and Friday from 7:30AM till 5PM. Wednesday from 7:30AM till 7:00PM, and Saturday from 7:30AM till Noon. Please sign up for the Bronx vigil (only) at our website for our Bronx campaign at the Vigil Calendar, at www.40DaysforLife.com/NYC You can also call Emily Wilkinson at 718-884-9210 to schedule a vigil time or email us at 40DaysNYC@gmail.com Remember, that we cannot do this without YOU! Our goal? It is to convert mothers, fathers and pedestrians to Life outside the worst abortion mill in the Bronx, where the abortion rate is over 48%, in NYC, the "Abortion Capital of America." We also will be leading a special two and a half day per week campaign in Manhattan, on Monday 11:30am till 7:00PM, Thursday from 11:30AM till 7PM and Saturday from Noon till 2:30PM, at the newly purchased Planned Parenthood Federation of America building in Manhattan at 434 West 33rd St. for Lent from starting on February 23rd till 3/31/12. This organization is the head of the Abortion Monster in the US. If you cannot join us at anytime this Lent, please pray and fast from home or Church, and either way please make a sacrificial gift to our efforts.

Check above 40 Days for Life video on Day 36 Blog David Bereit, National 40 Days for Life Director said of EMC's 40 Days for Life campaign today: "Chris Slattery, [and Ray Mooney] featured in Shawn's video clip above, not only coordinate the 40 Days for Life campaigns in Queens and The Bronx; they also direct Expectant Mother Care Frontline Pregnancy Centers. This organization offers internships for young people to learn first-hand about various aspects of pro-life ministry. (See http://BronxLifeHouse.BlogSpot.com ) The interns' blog tells a story of life on the sidewalk at Dr. Emily's Women's "Medical Pavilion", the 40 Days for Life vigil location in the South Bronx.
It was 11:30 in the morning, and the interns were going to a pro-life conference. As they were leaving, they watched two young women leave the clinic. Once they reached the sidewalk, one of the 40 Days for Life volunteers handed one of them a brochure.
One intern saw this, walked up beside them, and started asking questions. "Have you had an abortion? How far along are you? Have you been allowed to see a sonogram?"
She learned that the women had only been inside the clinic for a short time - it was already too late in the day to schedule an abortion. The two were sisters, she learned. The older sister was there for the abortion, the younger one for support.
The intern saw an opportunity.
"I offered her a free sonogram appointment and began to tell her about fetal development. She was so surprised to find out that her baby's heart started to beat at 17 to 21 days," the intern said. "She thought that wouldn't happen until the sixth month. I asked her what she knew about the abortion procedure, what had they told her in the clinic? She knew nothing, so I started to explain."
The woman who had tried to schedule the abortion said she wasn't feeling very well, so the intern offered to treat her and her sister to lunch.
As they walked to the burger shop, the intern and the younger sister had to steady the older sister.
About that time, some clinic escorts walked towards them - and then walked right past. "They saw a girl in obvious distress who had just come out of the clinic," said the intern. "They just didn't seem to care!"
The pro-life people on the sidewalk tell the women going into the clinic that they are there to help them. "Of course, the 'clinic escorts' scoff at the idea," the intern said, "but when it counts, the proof is in the pudding."
They sat in that restaurant talking for a long time - "almost two hours," said the intern. "She started to feel better. In the end, she decided not to abort her baby!"
By the time lunch was over, this young woman knew that even if she faced hardships or had to make sacrifices, it would all be worth it for the life of her child.
God bless pro-lifers in the Big Apple - and all around the world!"

Shawn made a short video account of his visit to the 40 Days for Life campaign in the city labeled "the abortion capital of America." *If you only watch one video during this 40 Days for Life, it HAS to be this amazing clip. *During the brief video - which was filmed right on the street in Queens - you will: *Hear from a volunteer who puts in 6-10 hours EVERY DAY outside of two of the largest abortion centers in the United States *See hundreds of passers-by receiving a pro-life education on the street *Discover the challenges of holding a campaign in a crime and drug infested area - on the spot where a murder took place right before 40 Days for Life *Meet a sidewalk counselor who shares how they are saving lives in the midst of the hustle and bustle *Learn JUST HOW MANY lives have been saved in the Big Apple due to 40 Days for Life campaigns over the last two years - prepare to be amazed in the last 20 seconds of the video! *The video [click below ] is loud. Everything's in motion. It's got attitude. But hey - it's New York City" Click here for NYC 40 Days for Life Street Video Here |
| Spanish Team in South Bronx reaches out to Moms at Dr. Emily's Abortion Mill, the largest in the Bronx Here local Hispanic parishoners from near the Bronx LifeHouse pray during our 40 Days for Life effort. Daily we counsel many on their way into these mills but also thousands of passerbys talk to our team members about Life and ways to help end the killing and provide true support for women in need. |  Teens Also Reach out to Spread "Life" at Dr. Emily's. A major part of our NYC 40 days has been community outreach especially among the youth in the Bronx and Queens. Above, Fr. Peter Pilsner is pictured with a group of Cardinal Spellman high school students on a recent weekday, praying for moms and abortion mill workers. | | | About Us 40 Days for Life in NYC has been organized by Chris Slattery, the campaign director of the Save The Life Centers effort and founder and president of Expectant Mother Care-EMC FrontLine Pregnancy Centers.
