Deacon John,
A 40 Days for Life campaign is built on prayer ... and leadership.
The heroes of this effort are the hundreds of local leaders who
courageously step forward to lead 40 Days for Life in their home towns. And right now, our world needs leaders.
A recent article highlights this ... then digs into what's wrong with our culture.
The author, Dr. Carrie Gress, says you can blame abortion
for the continuing downward spiral. "Abortion doesn't just kill an
innocent, unborn child," she said. "Its tentacles destroy every aspect
of society, beginning at the head."
That, she said, explains the ongoing crisis of leadership -- which is
also one of the reasons that political efforts to end abortion have
failed.
"The end of abortion will come through prayer, fasting and a
restoration of our relationship with God," she wrote, "or it simply will
not happen through our efforts."
And so ... we continue to pray and fast during these 40 Days for Life.
