40 Days for Life Days 19, 20, 21 - Pray for These Courageous Legislators

40 Days for Life: "CONGRATULATIONS to Virginia State Sen. Ken Cuccinelli who took a leap of faith to introduce an amendment to strip tax funding from abortion giant Planned Parenthood in his state.
Wednesday’s vote was tied at 20 to 20 before Lt. Governor Bill Bolling cast the tie-breaking vote in favor of the amendment!
The final state budget will be decided over the next week, and it is very likely that the Planned Parenthood amendment will now be part of the budget negotiations.
We’re all quick to complain when things go wrong in our culture. Now let’s send a resounding thank you to Sen. Cuccinelli and Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling for taking such a bold “leap.”
No matter where in the country you live, this action is a big boost for the fight against Planned Parenthood. Please e-mail these men and congratulate them for their courage:
SEN. KEN CUCCINELLI: district37@sov.state.va.us
LT. GOVERNOR BILL BOLLING: bill.bolling@ltgov.virginia.gov"

Baby's Life Saved By Eight Year Old Boy

An eight-year-old boy went with his older sister to pray with a 40 Days for Life group in Bakersfield, California and wound up saving a baby's life. A pregnant woman had been talking with sidewalk counselors for an hour. "Little Hugo stood nearby listening as Denisha explained her reasons for scheduling the abortion. She has two young children who were taken away by Child Protective Services. She expects to get her children back at an upcoming court date, but being pregnant again could complicate the situation. She was also afraid to tell her parents that she is pregnant." The boy listened and then said, "Your mom didn't abort you." to read more visit: 40 Days for Life:Scroll all the way down to Day 19 blog entry.
