LET’S GET FIRED UP. 🔥 40 days. 682 cities. One mission. We pray for women. We pray for their babies. We pray for abortion workers. And we ask God to change hearts in ways we never could on our own. This is 40 Days for Life.

Football, foot-long brats, and a Cowboys loss. 🏈😂 Shawn and Steve take their rivalry to Lambeau Field. The highlight? “Don’t get the scoreboard. He may want to put this on a Christmas card.” 🎧 Watch more on the 40 Days for Life Podcast! 40daysforlife.com/en/lindsay…

📍 ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO A couple flew from Alaska for a third-trimester abortion. They had already spent money on travel and accommodations. Turning around was no small decision. But the Albuquerque 40 Days for Life team was there. 🧵

The team greeted them and encouraged them to choose life. Then came the words: “We choose life and we are keeping our baby.” ❤️ That night, they flew home to Alaska with their baby safe. It’s never too late to choose life.

Horrific. A society is judged by how it treats its most vulnerable. Celebrating abortion should horrify us. God, have mercy on us.

She spent her career bringing babies into the world. Then she killed her own three children. Now, a disturbing term has emerged in the Lindsay Clancy case: “altruistic filicide,” killing one's children out of “love.” There is nothing loving about taking the lives of innocent children. 🎧 Watch more on the 40 Days for Life Podcast. 40daysforlife.com/en/lindsay…

Last night, abortion rights won in three states. “Profoundly tragic.” That’s how Virginia’s bishops described Tuesday’s vote, warning it will “embed virtually limitless abortion into the constitution.” Virginia was one of three states where abortion rights prevailed. Pray for mothers. Pray for the unborn. Our work continues. ewtnnews.com/world/us/aborti…

“Eat this. It’s good for you.” A former West Point cadet drugged his pregnant girlfriend and forced abortion pills into her body. She woke up bleeding. Her baby was gone. They deserved protection. This violence must stop. BAN ABORTION PILLS. nypost.com/2026/11/02/us-new…

This is what happens when peaceful prayer gets under the abortion industry’s skin. A Bangor Planned Parenthood encouraged supporters to “practice witchcraft” and “cast some spells” on 40 Days for Life volunteers. The sidewalk response was simple: keep praying.

📍 ATLANTA, GEORGIA A mom pulled into an abortion facility crying: “I really didn’t want to do this.” 40 Days for Life leader Cathy promised to help if she chose life. She did. “She held my hand every step of the way.” Today, the mother is raising the baby girl she had always hoped for. God is so good❤️

Happy All Saints’ Day! 🙏 As the Fall 40 Days for Life campaign comes to a close, we’re especially grateful for every volunteer who persevered in prayer, fasting, and peaceful witness. May the saints continue to inspire us to defend life with courage and faith.

📍 PASTO NARIÑO, COLOMBIA A young woman refused alternatives to abortion... until her anesthesiologist refused to take part. After leaving the hospital, she accepted the 40 Days for Life team’s offer to get an ultrasound. One ultrasound changed everything. She saw her baby moving on the screen, and through tears, she chose life. ❤️

What an encouragement. 🙏 “We pray in our time, but the answers come in God’s time.” Thank you, @BishopBarron, for joining our Rochester vigil and praying with us for an end to abortion.
Friends, I traveled today to the Planned Parenthood in Rochester to join a group of seminarians and lay people in praying for an end to abortion. Over the years, it has been edifying to join in prayer with 40 Days for Life and to see the progress being made to uphold the dignity of every human life. As I mentioned to our group today, we pray in our time, but the answers come in God's time. Please join me in continually petitioning the Lord to help us end the grave evil of abortion.

Halloween is just around the corner, and there’s nothing scarier than nice abortion supporters. When Jesus is invoked to defend abortion, that should stop us in our tracks. Hear the full take ⬇️ youtu.be/rmkfN2WHSG4

📍 MEXICO An abortionist took a 40 Days for Life leaflet while walking past a prayer vigil. Days later, he called a volunteer: “This prayer vigil really moved me, and I have already resigned.” Prayer changes hearts. 🙏

“Viability humanizes the baby.” Once viability enters the conversation, the focus shifts to the child. But if viability can change, can it really determine a human life’s worth? Watch the full conversation on the 40 Days for Life Podcast. 40daysforlife.com/en/viabili…

Offer an abortion? No problem. Offer an alternative? Risk JAIL TIME. Colorado sidewalk counselor Wendy Faustin is challenging a law that restricts her from approaching women outside abortion facilities to offer pregnancy resources. When did offering women hope become a punishable offense? Read more ⤵️ nypost.com/2026/10/26/us-new…

If viability keeps changing, why should it determine whether a baby deserves protection? It’s one of the biggest questions at the heart of the abortion debate. Watch the full conversation on the 40 Days for Life Podcast. 40daysforlife.com/en/viabili…
