As October is Respect Life Month, the faithful are encouraged to pray for an end to abortion, and 40 Days for Life is one way to offer those prayers. Slots are still open to participate in the prayer vigil in Sioux City through Nov. 3.
Here’s how to take part in 40 Days for Life in the Sioux City area:
Vigil location: Outside Planned Parenthood of Sioux City, 4409 Stone Ave.
40 Days for Life is a focused pro-life campaign with a vision to access God’s power through prayer, fasting, and peaceful vigil to end abortion.
The 40-day campaign tracks Biblical history, where God used 40-day periods to transform individuals, communities and the entire world. From Noah in the flood to Moses on the mountain to the disciples after Christ’s resurrection, it is clear that God sees the transformative value of his people accepting and meeting a 40-day challenge.
