40 Days for Life

Christians throughout Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky, and surrounding areas are invited to participate in the international 40 Days for Life effort from September 27- November 5, 2023. In addition to 40 days of prayer and fasting for an end to abortion in America, please consider volunteering to pray outside of the Planned Parenthood abortion facility on Auburn Avenue in Cincinnati for one or more hours during the 40 days and spread the word to others about this important life-saving effort.

Learn more at www.40daysforlife.com/cincinnati.

Dianne and Bob are signing up volunteers for the 3–5 p.m. hours on Thursdays during the campaign.
