40 Days For Life: DAY 31: One year ago

It's hard to believe it's been a year since the opening weekend of Unplanned... ...which helped increase 40 Days for Life vigil participation by 30%! In today's video blog, I share my personal favorite Unplanned story, and we take a blast from the past and show you highlights from the opening weekend one year ago. (We also share how you can get a FREE Unplanned DVD.)

Prior to the suspension of public vigils, 40 Days for Life volunteers around the world used their extra free time to pray for an end to abortion--while also maintaining proper social distancing.

Mobile, Alabama "School’s out," wrote Mae in Mobile. "So Jennifer took her family with her to pray for an end to abortion at Planned Parenthood."

Aurora, Illinois Where two or three are gathered in the Lord's Name, He is with them...even if they remain six feet apart in accordance with CDC guidelines. Vigil participants in Aurora obeyed those recommendations with perfect compliance.

Lawndale, California Prayer warriors also united to pray separately in Lawndale. "We have ditched the signs and are keeping the vigil by walking and praying," said Laura, the local leader. "I have seen new people join the campaign in the last two days. God is gracious!"

Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them. —Psalm 139:16 Gracious God, help us to appreciate the wonder and beauty of Your creation. Help us proclaim on behalf of every one of our fellow human beings, "I am fearfully and wonderfully made." May the knowledge that we are intimately known by You shape our lives and actions.
