40 Days for Life Kickoff Rally to be Held September 13!

Mark your calendars and join us on Saturday, September 13 from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at Reindahl Park as we kick off this fall's 40 Days for Life prayer vigil. Here you can download a flyer to print, post and distribute!

The kickoff will feature musical entertainment, free food, and pro-life speakers. Photojournalist and pro-life activist Michael Clancy will highlight the event with a 1:00 p.m. keynote address. www.michaelclancy.com/story.html

Clancy gained national fame in 1999 when he photographed an in utero surgery on Samuel Armas, just 21 weeks after conception. The photographs clearly show the pre-born child's fully-formed hand extended out of his mother's womb—a startling proof of the humanity of pre-born life.

Clancy will also be available to speak free of charge on Friday, September 12. Email 40daysforlifemadison@gmail.com if you know of any organization that would like to hear his life-affirming message. We look forward to seeing you at the kickoff and praying together this fall!

You can view the vigil hours that need coverage. www.localendar.com/public/madison40days (You may have already committed for some vigil hours, but may see that the hours are still in need of coverage.... that only means that we are waiting for a second prayer partner to sign up with you.)
