Thank God for giving us another 40 Days for Life campaign, full of blessings and wonderful people who are praying and sacrificing for an end to abortion! We believe that possibly SIX BABIES were saved during these 40 days, thanks to the faithful ones…the holy ones…the ones who said “YES” to God’s call to overcome fear, timidity and anxiety…and they came to PP to pray anyway. THANK YOU ALL! The next 40 Days begins on Ash Wednesday, February 18th, so the kick-off will be the night before, on Tuesday, February 16th. It will run through Palm Sunday, March 28th. Until then, keep praying…VOTE ON TUESDAY…and enjoy these photos and video’s from last night’s closing event with our beloved Bishop Waltersheid. God bless you!

Such a beautiful and moving Closing Ceremony! God provided clement weather as a blessing on this endeavor. So wonderful to see our courageous Bishop Waltersheid “claiming the circle for Christ” in front of the Pittsburgh death camp and then leading the procession of Our Lord to traditional Epiphany Church for a beautiful closing Liturgy. Praise God and thank you to all who attended. I pray that next year many more will attend both the Opening and Closing of 40DFL. If every Catholic in the diocese would participate in 40DFL, PP would be closed. Thank you and God bless all involved.
