"An inconvenience is only an adventure wrongly considered, an adventure is an inconvenience rightly considered." - G.K. Chesterson
40 Days for Life Alexandria is having a pre-campaign Community Outreach event THIS FRIDAY, September 21st from 4:30-6:00 p.m. at the King St. Metro. Please come out and help educate Alexandria about the real "War on Women": abortion.
If you are shy and feel you're not ready to try an outreach and chat with people, then we have educational signs that you can hold while you stand and pray. If you feel a little more comfortable reaching out to people, then we have pro-life information that you can distribute to passersby. Whatever your comfort level, we have a Community Outreach job for you! Contact Susan at susan.40days@yahoo.com or 571-228-3571 if you have questions.
Yes, you have worked all week. Yes, Friday nights are your time to go out with family and friends. Yes, you haven't slept well lately and need rest. Yes, you are dealing with some major crises in your life and lots of smaller problems. Yes, ragweed has made its presence known and hot tea and a fresh box of tissues are beckoning you home.
Yes, all of these inconveniences are real, but worrying about bad things will not ensure that they won't happen; nor will it make the good things happen. We all know, even if we don't want to admit it, that you can't "catch up" on lost sleep. If Friday night is your time to go out with friends and family, then invite them along or push dinner back an hour. Consider those inconveniences rightly. Come join us this Friday for the 40 Days for Life pre-campaign Community Outreach and have the adventure of helping to save a life!
