Fall 40 Days For Life Prayer Vigil Info

Hello Prayer Partners!!

We were able to get some much needed brainstorming at the meetings this week!!

In this email you will find:
Exciting PRAISE report
Information about cost for newspaper article
Weblink for 40 DFL merchandise
Life Chain information
Coverage days for 40 DFL

I JUST got this exciting information!!!! For those of you that don't already know, Aaron's was the site of the 2nd 40 Day For Life 24 hour / 7 days each week prayer vigil.
Last Wednesday, August 27 was Aaron's final day to kill children. Thank God that the horror has ceased at this place.
We had received word at the end of June that Aaron's "would be closing," and they initially told us their last day to take appointments was going to be Saturday, June 28. We found out they were going to stay open "for a few more weeks."
But praise be to God, after 29 years of killing children in Dallas, "Aaron Women's Health Center" has now officially closed permanently. This is such a victory for life, since Aaron's was not only an abortuary but it was the later term abortuary (killing unborn babies over 16 weeks) for all of North Texas and for those who traveled here from nearby states. Praise God!
We continue to pray for the conversion of heart for all who have ever worked at Aaron's, and for those who have moved over to the remaining five abortuaries in Dallas, where CPLC sidewalk counselors will continue to reach out in love and offer alternatives to all who are coming for abortions. We especially pray for healing for all the mothers and fathers whose babies died at Aaron's over the last 29 years.
If you or anyone you know are suffering from an abortion, please call our confidential Abortion AfterCare-Healing helpline, 214-544-CARE, or email healing@racheldallas.org. We can help.

Back to our current vigil information:

I have spoken to the McKinney Courier and they will give us a discounted rate of $570 to run a full half page ad about the vigil. Several of you have expressed your interest in donating to this area - if you are still feeling called to do that just let me know. Thank you!!!!

Also, I want to remind you all that LIFE CHAIN is just around the corner

If any of you would like to purchase 40 Days for Life merchandise like T-Shirts ($4.95 each) they are being offered at INCREDIBLY low prices through Heritage House Inc. Go to www.hh76.com/40days to see the items or call 800-858-3040. They have many items that would be incredible to have for the campaign - I would love to be able to find a way to raise a couple hundred dollars to spend on the brochures, T-shirts, and yard signs. If you have any suggestions or can help coordinate this please call or email me.

Thank you all for your support and prayers are we approach the start of this vigil!!!

Where we go from here:
We will have a meeting next Thursday evening at 7 PM - location is still to be determined. If you would like to offer your home or church meeting space we would be appreciative. Also, please invite someone else to come to the meeting with you!! This is a united effort, and the more volunteers we have the more effective we will be.

You will see the vigil hours listed below. As we did in the last vigil, we will still be scheduling a minimum 4 hours of prayer on days that the PPE is closed. An individual, church, or group of people can chose to 'adopt' these days. The prayers may be said in the privacy of your home, in your church, at the PPE vigil site, or at another location of your choosing.

We will remain on the public right of way during hours that the PPE is open and operating. Please consider adopting one of the days listed. If you email me I will put your name or your church's name in that time slot!

LIFE CHAIN INFORMATION:
Last year on the first Sunday of October in more than 1,300 cities and towns across the United States and Canada, tens of thousands of pro-life people gathered to pray silently and hold professionally printed signs beside major streets.

They peacefully showed solidarity in the Christian community for the sanctity of human life from conception to natural death.

Organizers hear every year about young women who have decided not to have an abortion after reading the signs.

Contact Juanita Hernandez 469-235-6558.
