40 Days for Life Spring Vigil PDF Print E-mail

vigil_for_life_logoVigil for Life announced Wednesday that it will hold its first ever 40 Days for Life Spring vigil at the Madison Surgery Center (1 S. Park Street) from February 17 to March 28.

Unlike previous 40 Days campaigns at Planned Parenthood, this vigil will not go overnight. It will begin each morning at 6 a.m. and run until 6 p.m. Signs will be allowed, but are not mandatory for participation.

"The Lord has staved off this abomination for a year now," said VFL's Laura Karlen. "It is our prayer and our hope that 40 Days of continuous prayer in front of the Madison Surgery Center can put a permanent end to these grisly plans."

Nearly 1,000 hour-long prayer shifts will need to be filled. To schedule prayer slots, click here or visit vigilforlife.org. If you encounter technical difficulties, you can contact Steve Karlen at 608-445-2063 to register for hours. [Printable flier].

Invitation to Prayer and Fasting PDF Print E-mail
ol-guadalupeBishop Robert Morlino invites the faithful of the Diocese of Madison to pray and fast for three days, December 9th through 11th, to ask "our Lord for a restored respect and protection of the vulnerable among us, particularly, but not limited to, each and every preborn child." Fasting from food, drink, television, or Internet is encouraged. Bishop Morlino especially emphasizes prayer to Our Lady of Guadalupe, whose feast is celebrated on December 12th.

The Bishop's request comes at a time when the Senate is negotiating unprecedented healthcare legislation which could include coverage for abortion. In this hope-filled Advent season, please join us in prayer and fasting for the protection of all human life.
