40 Days For Life @ Halfway Point. Over 200 Babies Saved.

Our opponents tend to mock the vigil keepers' efforts. One of them even went as far as calling the pro-life vigil "silly", claiming that "standing across the street and praying to end abortion -- that doesn't work". Well, it turns out that pro-life prayers do work after all. At least 209 babies have been saved from being slaughtered before birth:

I still think it's a miracle any time 40 Days for Life prayer vigil participants are blessed with the knowledge that a mother has changed her mind about aborting a child. And today, as we reach the halfway point of this campaign -- it's already happened ... 209 times that we know of! That's 102 more lives spared -- over the last week.

Here are just a few of those miracles:

JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA: A woman and her daughter spent about an hour in the parking lot at the abortion center, entering and leaving the business several times. Finally, they drove out of the lot. The young woman rolled down her window and said, "I am not going to have an abortion."

"We were there at the critical time," said Trudy in Jacksonville. "We were there at the entrance of the driveway, offering her hope in her desperate situation.

"She saw strangers praying for her; she saw signs that gave her options; she experienced the ultimate, unconditional love from people whom she may never see again in this world. And her miraculous decision gave us peace and joy this world can not give!"

And here's a story of another 40 Days For Life miracle - a woman dialed a wrong number (or so she thought) and she reached one of the vigil keepers instead of the "planned parenthood" office. As result - her baby is likely to live to see daylight.

Yes, miracles don't happen 100% of the time. But they'll happen more often if there are more of us willing to sacrifice an hour of our free time to stand outside of the abortion facilities and pray for those who are in danger of losing their lives before they even get a chance to have their first breath.
