‘40 Days for Life’ campaign underway
SAN DIEGO — The spring campaign of 40 Days for Life Campaign, which began March 5, will end on Palm Sunday, April 13.
Held on the same dates in communities around the world, the 40 Days for Life campaign is an effort to protect the unborn through fasting and prayer, community outreach, and peaceful all-day vigils in front of abortion clinics.
The centerpiece of the campaign is a 40-day, round-the-clock prayer vigil on the public sidewalk outside of an abortion clinic. Locally, such vigils will be taking place at nine locations in San Diego and Imperial counties, including Downtown San Diego, Clairemont, College Area, Mira Mesa, Escondido, Vista, El Cajon, Chula Vista and El Centro.
For more information, including the nearest location, and to sign up for vigil hours, visit sdcatholic.org/40-days-for-life-campaign.
