40 Days for Life is a community-based campaign that draws attention to the evil of abortion through the use of prayer and fasting, constant vigil and community outreach. 40 Days for Life takes a determined, peaceful approach to showing communities the consequences of abortion in their own neighborhoods, for their own friends and families. Click here to see the 40 Days website.The 40 Days for Life Campaign will move to OLPH the week of September 29th -October 5th. Please volunteer to be a part of the vigil this week. As Knights, we must show that we are very much about defending life in all stages!
YOU CAN HELP! There will be a canopy at the corner of South Moore and South Terrace. The Vigil will take place the following hours:
- Monday 9/29 through Thursday 10/2, daily beginning with 8:15 a.m. Mass and concluding 7:00 p.m. each evening.
- Friday 10/3 from 8:15 a.m. Mass, then during Eucharistic Adoration 9:00 a.m. until the 5:30 p.m. "First Friday" Mass.
- Saturday 10/4 from 8:00 a.m. Mass until 5:30 p.m. Mass.
The "40 Days for Life" Vigil concludes on Respect Life Sunday, October 5, with a Silent Prayer Chain bordering OLPH from 3:15 p.m. - 4:15 p.m., which will feature a special guest speaker from "Silent No More", along with closing prayers offered by local youth. Hundreds of people are needed to be witnesses for life during the life chain, so be sure to be there.
