Hello pro-lifers. There’s only 5 days to go before the Fall 2013 40 Days for Life campaign begins. Here are some important points to be aware of:
- Attached is a file showing key locations for the Kick-off Rally and Prayer Vigil as well as a file covering the dos and don’ts of 40 DFL. Please look them over.
- The on-line schedule is open ready to accept sign-ups for particular time slots. Due to the re-designed website, all participants must re-register this year before attempting to use the on-line schedule. Just go to 40daysforlife.com/rochester and click on “Login / Signup” in the upper right corner . If you don’t register first and login, you will only be able to view the schedule.

Centre City Place – 80 University Ave. We are asking everyone to bring one non-perishable food item, or baby formula, or diapers (size 4 or 5 preferred) to help stock the shelves of the Focus Pregnancy Center as they strive to serve the poor of the community.
