40 Days Updates

40 Days is going strong! Here are some updates:

  • We asked you to pray for "K" in an earlier post. As far as we know at this time, she has an abortion scheduled for this Friday, and she is in need of your prayers over these next few days. A 40 Days volunteer, Emily, has been speaking with her, so please keep Emily in your prayers as well, that God may continue to work through her to speak to "K" and that her baby is able to be saved.

  • A woman named Babs and her husband were at the Richmond clinic today, all the way from Vermont! They are traveling from one 40 Days location to the next, and living in their RV. Also, a mother and her two children who live two hours away came to pray at the clinic today. She said their church is fasting for the 40 days. Just remember, when you are out there praying at the clinic, even if you are alone, remember how many people are alongside you in spirit, supporting your efforts with prayer and fasting!

  • Life Chain was a big success on Sunday. Many thanks to each of you who came out to stand for life. There were approximately 55 pro-lifers in attendance, ranging in ages from 14 years to early 80's. We will soon be posting a video of the event on this blog, so keep checking back!

Some days at the abortion mill are brighter than others. My prayer times this year have been on Thursdays from noon to 2 pm. Finally, last week the sun came out, but nice as that was, the really impressive light came in the company of Michelle, the lady who follows me at 2 pm. With Michelle was Angel, a smiling lady whom I recognized from conversations at the abortion mill last year. Thursday she held a carrier, and in the carrier was a beautiful 5 month old baby girl, Karma, the result of our conversations last year with Angel. Angel had gone in to have the abortion although she really did not want to do it. She asked to see the ultrasound, but they concealed it from her. But she sneaked a peak anyway and saw the little arms and legs moving. Through tears she told them that she could not go through with the killing of that child moving in her body. She told them, "I can't do this!" And she left. Now Angel (isn't that a prophetic name?) is pro-life. What a bright light - a mom who decided to save and keep her baby! I believe this was a direct result of our conversations with Angel and God's intervention. "Karma" really seems appropriate here. Thanks to 40 Days for Life. Chuck
