40 Days For Life — In Ottawa

It's always great to see a new pro-life initiative to be launched here in Canada.
Pro-life advocates in Ottawa to launch groundbreaking 40 Days for Life campaign

OTTAWA, ON, August 11, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - On September 23rd, Ottawa area pro-life advocates will join together with people of faith and conscience from many other communities from coast to coast to kick off the area's own version of the groundbreaking 40 Days for Life campaign.

40 Days for Life is an intensive pro-life initiative that focuses on 40 days of prayer and fasting, 40 days of peaceful vigil at abortion facilities, and 40 days of grassroots educational outreach. The 40-day time frame is drawn from examples throughout Biblical history where God brought about world-changing transformation in 40-day periods.
Too bad the website for Ottawa campaign is not ready yet (the link on LifeSite is broken and I couldn't find it on 40daysforlife.com. Well, there's still some time till September 23rd.
Update: As of Aug.19, the website - www.40daysforlife.com/ottawa - is up and running. Signing up for the vigil hours will be available soon.
