40 DAYS FOR LIFE
Christians throughout Genesee County are invited to take part in the international 40 Days for Life effort from September 27 through November 5. Since 2007, 13,305 lives have been saved, 154 abortion workers have walked away from the abortion industry and 86 abortion facilities have completely shut down. In addition to 40 days of peaceful prayer and fasting for an end to abortion, please consider volunteering to pray outside of the Planned Parenthood at G-3371 Beecher Road, Flint, MI, during the 40 days. Spread the word to others about this important life-saving effort! To get more information, or to volunteer to help, please contact: Tina Phillpotts at 810-892-FLNT or info@prolifeflint.com.

=================================================.
Over 30 years ago a court decision was rendered which legalized abortion throughout the entire nine months of pregnancy. This decision, Roe v. Wade, is the reason over 1 million abortions have been committed in the U.S. each year
To help stop the anti-life push around the world, the late Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen encouraged the spiritual adoption of an unborn child. This is done by praying that the one particular but unknown child’s life be spared abortion and be allowed to continue to live.
To help accomplish this, it was recommended an individual say the following daily prayer for a period of nine months.
“Jesus, Mary and Joseph, I love you very much. I beg you to spare the life of [baby’s name] the unborn baby that I have spiritually adopted who is in danger of abortion.”
