Please follow the Commandments of Safety when praying and witnessing for LIFE at a vigil site.

If my people upon whom my name has been pronounced,

humble themselves and pray, and seek my face

and turn from their evil ways, I will hear them

 from heaven and pardon their sins

and revive their land.  

2 Chronicles 7:14

We will begin the 32^nd campaign of 40 Days for Life in just 14 days in Bedford Heights and Cleveland and Painesville. Choose the vigil site where you plan to pray and sign up for vigil hours today! Please note that 40 Days for Life will not sell your personal information and that your passwords are encrypted so no one can see them.

We hold 12-hour vigils at all three sites praying from 7 AM to 7 PM at Planned Parenthood and Preterm and Signature Health during the 40 Days beginning March 5 through April 13. Your prayerful presence on the sidewalk in front of an abortion facility may be the sign a mother-in-crisis scheduled for an abortion needs to change her mind and NOT show up for her appointment! Our prayer warriors and sidewalk counselors have been told by abortion-minded mothers on 325 occasions since the start of 40 Days for Life in Cleveland, Painesville, and Bedford Heights in 2009, "I have changed my mind. I am keeping my baby!" Perhaps you are the next prayer warrior on the sidewalk to hear those heartfelt words joyfully exclaimed by an abortion-minded mother!

Our federal government has now become the most pro-life in our lifetime, but the culture of death is still influencing many young people, so your prayers, fasting, and peaceful vigil continue to be needed to keep the hearts of preborn children beating strong!

Evil never takes a day off from advancing abortion, so neither can we! Now that the target is off our backs, thanks to President Trump, we must fight to end legalized abortion in our communities through prayer, fasting, and peaceful vigil on the sidewalk in front of an abortion facility! Please pray each day of the campaign - at home and at the vigil site of your choice. Commit to fast - once a week. Please incorporate our 2025 Spring Campaign prayer authored by Bishop Pipta (shown below) into your daily prayers. Thank you for being a voice for our voiceless brothers and sisters in the womb!



God bless you and your families!

God bless 40 Days for Life!

God bless America!

This prayer request from Dan and Cathleen for a young mom: St. Valentine's Day on Shaker Blvd. in front of Preterm. Miraculous things happen out front on that sidewalk when so many are committed to turning out week after week to pray! The sweet, brave, confused young mom we met is why we will never give up! Why we will never stop trying to help moms and their babies! Why we must do better! So we saw a young mom get out of her car, put a young child in a stroller and go in to the "clinic" then come back out to her car clearly upset with her child in the stroller - sat in the car - went back in with child - then back out again - still very upset. "Hi, let us help you. You seem upset, stop and let's talk." She stops on the way out in tears. "They just want my money. They don't want to help. They wouldn't do my "procedure" today because I brought my other child with me and I have no one to watch her." We listen. "I kept my first child. I didn't think I could get pregnant again. Now the father is gone, I have no money, I don't know what to do. The people in their just want my money and don't want to help women. I don't believe in what they do in there but I don't know what to do." Once she relaxes we discover a very sweet, kind, young woman with some very serious challenges. We tell her about other young moms we have helped and are still helping as their children grow older. She tells us about some of her challenges and we promise to help her with them...we promise her an epic baby shower and that brings a smile to her face. We tell her about different organizations that can help and how. We exchange cell #'s and give her a few brochures and an ultrasound coupon. "We will help you. Every step of the way. Just call and we will help you with every challenge. You are not alone...there are all kinds of people out there who would love to help you." We were able to speak with this lovely young mom for about 10 to 15 minutes. She really seemed committed to keeping her baby as she drove off. She promised to text us and meet for lunch. Providentially, we had a perfectly-sized brand new white winter coat for her young child in the back seat of our car. A snack bag and a Rosary brought another smile to the young mom's face. "These are just small signs of the love that awaits you and your baby. Please let us help you." Please pray for her. Please refer to this young mother as Gianna. St Valentine, pray for us. St Philomena, pray for us.
