Praying for an end to abortion with new friends!

A prayer volunteer shared her testimony at one of our events. She said that one of her favorite times when standing vigil is when the people arrive for the next hour or when she arrives for the next hour. She said it is a great time because you are able to meet "new people" and pray with them.

"Happy is that people..."

"Happy is that people, whose God is the Lord." Psalms 144:15

Mother & Daughter

These are the pics of the last day. Yes, we were there till midnight!!! Many people came the last day to end the 40 Day campaign of prayer.

The Last Day a Family Day

This family spent their Sunday afternoon standing and praying for an end to abortion.

Street People

One day a street person stopped and said, "you know people are just 'selfish'. They are here, and you are here, but they do not want the baby. That is 'selfish'." This is Sidney. Many of us came to know this street person...

Happy for Jesus

This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine, let it shine.....They smile, they wave, they touch lives and save lives...
Do you hear the call?

If my People....

They came they prayed. Many lives were changed that day on the street and in the cars.....would you like to make a difference?

Children are a gift of God

Train up a child and when he is old he will not depart....Notice the sign the little girl is holding. She was adopted from China. Some drove from Senatobia. Where will you drive from to pray?

Will you take a stand?

Many lives have been touched and will be for many days to come.

Faithful People

The people have heard the call, they came they prayed and they told others. Will you?...

Card from Australia

This youth leader was given a card by some sisters in Australia this summer encouraging him to pray to end abortion. The young lady heard the call and started the 40 days in Memphis. Please help make a difference stand with us to pray, time is running out!!

David Bereit visits Memphis

We were so privileged this week to have David Bereit, national Campaign Director for 40 Days for Life, visit us in Memphis.  He shared his heart and passion for speaking for the unborn and inspired us with stories of how God is moving through other 40 Days for Life campaigns across the country.  After speaking, he stayed and prayed with us at the vigil site.  It was such a boost to those that attended.

Silent No More

They have heard the call. The young lady read about
40 days on line and came out to take a silent stand
it was very powerful. One lady is a Sunday School
teacher and very concerned for the babies. Will
you come and be a part of the largest pro-life event
in history?

These people have heard the call. Have you?

Emmaus Mens Prayer Group

We are so grateful to the Emmaus Mens Prayer Group that came out and spent some time praying as a group with us.  We so appreciate their sacrifice and their eagerness to be a part of saving lives.

Pictures of our vigil

We wanted to simply share some images of our wonderful prayer volunteers.

We are saving lives. Planned Parenthood loses business

We received this in an e-mail from a Prayer Volunteer. He wrote:

“Two of my daughters and a girl from my church family were stationed at the back around 11:30 am, when an older gentleman in white introduced himself as from Planned Parenthood, ‘My name is... (my daughter can't remember his name) and I am with Planned Parenthood.’ My daughter said, ‘Well I'm Lauren and I'm from the Catholic Church.’ He became upset and said they were harassing his ‘customers’ and blocking access (they assuredly were not) and if he received one more complaint, he would call the police. Then he got in his car and drove off.

Just a few minutes earlier, K.W. and I had been speaking to a young couple who had brought their beautiful children (a baby and a toddler) and were headed up to Planned Parenthood for birth control.

 

At the same time my daughters were being threatened by the PP worker, building security came down and asked K.W. if we purposely sent up the family who were creating a scene in their office. Evidently, the lovely family must have caused quite a stir! Planned Parenthood did not want to help these parents. They were too busy ending parenthood for their other 'customers'.

 

I am very encouraged by the events that took place today. The PP worker referred to these mothers as customers. He was upset because he was losing business. Evidently, our prayerful presence is affecting Planned Parenthood's ‘customers’, and in turn, PP's bottom line. God is melting mothers' hearts. We are saving lives. PP is losing business.”

Woman conceived through rape thanks prayer volunteers for standing vigil

I was on the phone with one of our prayer volunteers and she was telling me this story:

 

“Two of the prayer volunteers were out at Planned Parenthood standing vigil when an older African-American woman comes up to them crying. She told them that she was a product of rape. Her mother was pregnant with her before Roe v. Wade, and everyone was telling her mother to get an abortion. Her mother told them, ‘This baby is flesh of my flesh. This baby is flesh of my flesh. This is my baby.’ Her mother did not have an abortion. The woman continued to thank the prayer volunteers for being present and praying. She said she was praying as well, and that she just wanted everyone to understand that the unborn child is not just a blob of tissue… it is a baby.” 

 

This is such an encouraging story of a mother who chose life. God bless that mother and this child, now adult, who told us her story. Thank God for using us to touch her, and may all those who argue that abortion is ok in cases of rape for whatever reason realize that the baby is truly a baby. It is a human being, and it is, like that good mother said, “flesh of her flesh.”
