Even though our 40 Days for Life campaign ends officially this coming Sunday, April 17th (see below for details about our Victory Celebration Dinner), sadly, abortions will continue to take place at the Duke Street clinics.
We would like to continue our prayer vigil at the Duke Street location during the hours when abortions are performed. Please consider prayerfully taking part in this effort to save babies' lives and help women make a choice they will not regret.
We have learned the following schedules for the two abortion facilities:

We have learned the following schedules for the two abortion facilities:
Gynecare Associates, 2807 Duke StreetOperating Hours: Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. - 5 p.m.
Out to lunch from 11:30 a.m. - 1 p.m.Abortion Days: Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday.Annandale Women and Family Center, 2839 Duke StreetOperating Hours: VariesAbortion Days and Times:
Wednesday at lunch time (abortion pill, local, or general anesthesia)Friday at 8:30 a.m. (general anesthesia, possibly local anesthesia as well)Also, the pill abortion is a two-step procedure, so after starting the process on Wednesday, a woman would return for the final step on Friday. (Note: there is no guarantee that the baby will die after the first step; thus, it's important to counsel against the second step even if the first has already been completed.)
Therefore we will continue the vigil at 8 a.m. on Fridays, and if we have enough people, we will try to cover other days as well.
To sign up for the continuing vigil, look for signup sheets at the Victory Dinner on Sunday, or contact Mary Ellen McElfresh at 703-780-2922 or MaryEllen.40days@verizon.net.
