Dave and I have chosen our individual commitments for the fast. We're discussing increased family prayer. I think even our girls are going to find a method of fast that satisfies the calling they feel and their mother's sensibilities about growing young women's nutrition. The 40 Days For Life campaign is about to be kicked off this Wednesday. What's 40 Days For Life? It's a national program that's been brought to Fort Wayne to help end the murder of innocent babies in our city. It involves prayer and fasting. If you feel called, you can also committ to praying at the abortion clinic in town Inwood DriveFort Wayne, IN 46815 (Off State Street, one (1) block east of Coliseum Blvd.)
Check out the website 40 Days For Life -- it's got LOTS more information!!
What an exciting time to be a follower of Christ -- when we can make such a difference in the battle for lives and souls!!
We'll be spending some time praying at the clinic. I used to be there every Thursday, but then life got a little more hectic and I just haven't made it a priority for the last few years. Time to quit making excuses, since there just isn't one good enough to justify ignoring an evil of this magnitude!
ReplyDeleteOur youth group did some surveys this spring and were shocked at the number of people in Fort Wayne who don't even know there is a clinic in town.
