Dear Friends,

Thank you to all who participated with your prayers, fasting, and presence at the Kalamazoo 40 Days for Life vigils.

Over 80 people contributed over 300 hours of prayer in front of Kalamazoo Planned Parenthood. While we have no confirmation of babies that have been saved at this site, we know no prayer is ever wasted.

As we conclude the 2026 40 Days for Life Campaign, remember our mission does not end here. We look forward to seeing how God continues to work through your prayers in the days ahead.

Our Fall Campaign begins September 23, 2026.

God Bless everyone for your commitment to the unborn and marginalized.

“But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you, because you know that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.”

1 Corinthians 15:57-58

Day41
On this rock I will build my church; the gates of hell will not prevail against it.

--Matthew 16:18

Father, we have done battle with the power of evil, and therefore we can have compassion on those still within its grip. We have been freed from the kingdom of darkness, and therefore we can bear witness to your kingdom of light. May the witness of all your people through these 40 Days for Life bear abundant fruit.

Day 40
Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age.

--Matthew 28:19-20

God, you have given me more than I could possibly ask. Help me never stray from your presence, for it is you whom I long to share with everyone I encounter. Show your face through my humility, direct my steps, and let every word I speak be from you. You ascended to Heaven not to abandon us but to be with us. You sent the Holy Spirit to guide our actions. As we conclude this 40-day fast, pour forth your grace on us to carry your light to the ends of the world. Amen.

Day 39
Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here and see my hands, and bring your hand and put it into my side, and do not be unbelieving, but believe." Thomas answered and said to him, "My Lord and my God!"

--John 20:27-28

Dear Jesus, thank you for the ways that science helps us to better see and know your creation. Please lead every expectant mother to a place that will enable her to see her child with an ultrasound. Grant her the simplicity to see the humanity in her womb and the courage to protect it. Amen.

Day 38
On the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala came to the tomb early in the morning while it was still dark, and saw the stone removed from the tomb.

--John 20:1

Father, you never fail. Time and time again you have triumphed: with the overturn of Roe v. Wade, with the conversion of abortion doctors, with the courageous mothers who have chosen life, and with the countless babies saved against all odds. Why, then, do I doubt that you will help us now? I believe that you will make abortion unthinkable in this country. I believe that you will help us empower women to choose life. I believe that no setback is permanent. I believe that you have a plan far greater than anything I could ever conceive on my own. I surrender the past, present, and future to you. Amen.

03/26/2026

Day 37
Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.

--Luke 23:42



God, we ask that those who have participated in abortion will know that your mercy does not expire. Help us to forgive as you do so that others might come to understand the dignity of every human life, including their own. Convert the hearts of abortionists. May they experience your forgiveness as so many others have. Amen.

03/25/2026

Day 36
When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple there whom he loved, he said to his mother, "Woman, behold, your son."

--John 19:26

Most loving God, please help the victims of abuse, trafficking, and broken relationships. Provide them with immediate and permanent safety from danger. In your loving arms, heal them from injuries--physical, psychological, and spiritual. Lead them to the best sources of support and healing. Bring comfort to all victims of abuse, and help children conceived in abusive situations to know they are loved by you. Amen.

03/24/2026

Day 35
Father, forgive them, they know not what they do.

--Luke 23:34



Lord, we pray that you might help us to look with mercy upon those who seek to advance the evil of abortion. We ask that you lead them to a sincere conversion of heart. And we pray that you might help them to see the grace imbued in every soul and embrace the beauty that every child brings to the world. Amen.

Day 34
As they led him away they took hold of a certain Simon, a Cyrenian, who was coming in from the county; and after laying the cross on him, they made him carry it behind Jesus.

--Luke 23:26

Lord, teach us how to suffer alongside you. Grant us the joy of your company under the wood of the cross. Grant us the strength of Simon to help you on your way. We unite every tired step and discouraging defeat to your sacrifice for the redemption of all humanity. Amen.

03/23/2026

Dear Friends,

We are entering the final week of 40 Days for Life journey—a time to come together in prayer, unity and hope.

March 23 – March 29 is the final week of 40 Days for Life 2026.

On March 27, 2026, 40 Days for Life observes a special “Day of Exodus” dedicated to praying for abortion workers to leave the industry. Special signs are available at St. Monica’s church near the adoration chapel.

Let’s finish strong by joining the prayer vigil at least once more this week.

Your presence matters. Every prayer, every hour, every act of love makes a difference.

Thank you for standing for life with compassion and courage.

And whoever receives one child such as this in my name receives me…. See that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that their angels in heaven always look upon the face of my heavenly Father.

Matthew 18:5, 10

Day 33
When he returned to his disciples he found them asleep. He said to Peter, "So you could not keep watch with me for one hour? Watch and pray that you may not undergo the test. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak."

--Matthew 26:40-41

Most sweet Jesus, my heart aches for your suffering and loneliness in the garden of Gethsemane. Let me never fall asleep again when you so lovingly ask for my company. When I feel alone and afraid, remind me that you are with me and that you feel the pain that I feel. Keep me close to you on this 40-day journey and strengthen me through your blood and tears.

03/21/2026

Day 32
Then he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet and dry them with the towel around his waist.

--John 13:5

God, stir up in us the desire to serve as you serve. Grant us the discernment to understand your will for our lives, to use our gifts for your glory, and to love our neighbor well. When we feel that our efforts are in vain, remind us that we do everything for your glory, not for our own fame or recognition. Amen.
