Team Update

It has been a busy week for our campaign leadership team: planning our training event schedule, reaching out to churches, packing the vigil box, organizing names and media lists, and considering various methods of prayer and fasting! Along with all this busyness comes several blessings to share with you:
  1. First Church Signup: St. Joseph Church, Thursday evenings from 5-7pm. We are so happy to have them on our vigil schedule! Ask your pastor or pro-life coordinator to commit to a weekly vigil time for your church as well!
  2. First Donation: This will allow us to complete our first printing order of flyers, registration forms, and prayer cards, as well as make an initial investment in some volunteer wristbands (we still need another $245 to complete that order). A big Thank-You to our first donor! I invite you to consider making a contribution of $40 or 40 wristbands to St. Mary Church on behalf of 40 Days for Life Alexandria (see our website for details).
  3. Campaign Details Handout (see attached): lists main details of 40 Days for Life in Alexandria this fall, with directions on how to sign up and participate. This flyer contains our Campaign Prayer, a description of our three campaign activities, and the dates and times for our sidewalk counseling and pro-life training opportunities. Print this out and give to all your friends!
All these blessings are very encouraging and much appreciated, as we continue our planning and campaign promotion efforts to spread the word about 40 Days for Life throughout our city. We hope to see you at our Cast the Vision meeting on August 24th!
