The Catholic community at Amherst received this invitation to participate in 40 Days for Life. The poster from www.40daysforlife.com/springfield reads: "Recognizing that 'with God, all things are possible,' our community is joining with hundreds of other cities for this spring's global 40 Days for Life - the largest internationally coordinated pro-life mobilization in history. 40 Days for Life is a peaceful, prayerful - and proven effective - pro-life campaign that has already been embraced by more than half a million people worldwide, saved 6,749 lives from abortion, led to the conversion of 75 abortion workers, and seen 25 abortion facilities close. 40 Days for Life features 3 components: (1) Prayer and Fasting - join together with other believers for 40 days of fervent prayer and fasting for an end to abortion (2) Peaceful Vigil - stand for life during a 40-day peaceful public witness outside a local facility (3) Community Outreach - bring a positive pro-life message to every corner of our city through media efforts, advocacy and public visibility.
