Pro-Life Initiatives

40 Days for Life

All are encouraged to participate in our campaign during Wed. February 14 - Sun. March 24 in these ways:

PRAYER & FASTING – Prayer is the foundation of every 40 Days for Life campaign. Prayer keeps us humble and united. Without prayer, our campaign is a mere protest.

  • PRAY - Spend time during your normal day praying for the end to abortion.  PRAYER    DEVOTIONAL    PRO-LIFE Prayers
  • FAST - Fasting detaches us from what we are attached to so we can focus on prayer and God.

PEACEFUL VIGIL – Spend an hour peacefully praying at  Hope Clinic, Granite City, IL.  

  • Sign up on St. Cecilia's adopted day:   MARCH 3
  • Sign up for an hour that has not been filled:   FILL THE GAP
