LAST WEEK OF 40 DAYS FOR LIFE – JOIN US!

The 40 Days for Life Spring campaign ends Sunday, April 10. If you haven't yet prayed with us at the campaign site, Affiliated Medical Services, (1428 N Farwell Ave, Milwaukee, WI 53202) please join us! God can use you to help save lives! As Abby Johnson has said, "Abortion centers' no-show rates skyrocket to as high as 75% when there is even just ONE person outside praying." If God has been tugging at your heart to be a voice for the babies, sign up here or contact Dan Miller at Dan.M@ProLifeWI.org

Join us here or at a campaign near you! View Wisconsin locations here. If you or your campaign is in need of signs, we can ship you one or as many as you need.

40 Clergy, 40 Days: In past years, the presence of clergy has proven a very powerful witness and has influenced many women to choose life outside of abortion facilities! Our goal is to have one priest, deacon, or religious praying every day of the campaign for one hour. If you are a clergy member and would like to commit to one hour of prayer outside the local abortion facility, please sign up here. If you would like a member of our Pro-Life Wisconsin staff to join you on the sidewalks, let us know! Call 262.796.1111 ext. 110 or email info@prolifewi.org.

ABORTED BABIES DISCOVERED IN D.C. MAY INDICATE INFANTICIDE AFTER ATTEMPTED ABORTIONS: (Live Action News) – "Physician experts have told Live Action News that five aborted children in a D.C. apartment appear to have been viable human beings, raising questions about potential legal and serious ethical violations by the abortion clinic. A pro-life activist voluntarily informed the D.C. homicide unit of the babies and surrendered them to authorities. Details are forthcoming but the Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising (PAAU) group, to which this activist belongs, believes the 'late gestational ages as well as their apparent sustained injuries potentially show violations of the Partial Birth Abortion Act as well as the Born Alive Infants Protection Act.'” Read the full story here.

When she went to the clinic to collect the abortion pills, the medical professionals did not perform a medical examination or a scan.” Read the full story here.

THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION IS A THREAT TO MILLIONS OF CHILDREN IN THE WOMB: (LifeSiteNews) – "A new WHO document recommends 'full decriminalization' and the scrapping of laws and regulations that 'prohibit abortion based on gestational limits' and 'restrict abortion' on any grounds.
