Things seemed to go well for the 40 Days for Life campaign team on Day One here in Alexandria. Every time slot of Wednesday's Duke Street vigil was covered by at least one prayer volunteer, and we were welcomed to the area once again by many local business owners. One man drove by slowly in the evening as if to read the volunteer's sign, which read "Pray to End Abortion". The man nodded as if satisfied, and drove away. There were many friendly waves and thumbs-up as well. One negative woman drove by -- "Get a life!" she said. Yep, we're working on that!
Please send stories and pictures from your vigil, prayer, and outreach experiences to Jacinta at jacinta.40days@gmail.com for inclusion in our campaign team updates. We look forward to hearing from you!
A reminder about vigil time slots that are open today: 7-8:30am, 10-11:30am, and 12-2pm today each need one more person. In addition, please consider looking ahead to Monday and Tuesday to help staff many afternoon hours that are still empty. To view our vigil schedule, go to www.vigilcalendar.com/alexandria, or contact Mary Ellen at maryellen.40days@verizon.net. Thank you so much for your prayers and witness!
