Thank you to all for joining us Sunday evening September 21 for the opening Rally of our 2026 40 Days for Life Campaign that began Wednesday, September 24 and will end Sunday, November 2, with the mid-point Rally on October 19th. 

Opening Rally

The mid-point Rally is this Sunday, October 19 @ 6 pm at the Vigil Site (southwest corner of Bank and Queen Sts.) Please join us for an hour of prayer, hymns and some inspiration.

 We are happy to share that we have booked the Scavi at St. Patrick’s Basilica for our closing rally Sunday, November 2. We will begin as usual with an opening prayer and a hymn at the Vigil Site and then proceed with a candlelight vigil to St. Patrick’s for some speakers and light refreshments.

 
There are still some empty hours to fill at the Vigil Site. Please go to the website and on the right side under Resources, click on Calendar - see what hours are taken at the vigil site and you will see what is needed.
If you want to book a day for your parish or group please email Helena at helena.szakowski@rogers.com.

We have several resources on the 40 Days for Life website including a beautiful prayer guide with a daily devotion that includes an intention, a scripture and prayer, for each of the forty days. You can find it here on the website, under Resources in the right-hand column and clicking on the blue arrow beside Daily Devotions.

Please keep praying for all mothers who are struggling with their pregnancy, those mothers and fathers who have had abortions, and all the abortion workers.
