Papa Benedetto Blesses Current 40 Days for Life Campaign

Of course it is no surprize that Papa Benedetto would give his blessing to their efforts.

This Fall's 40 days for Life Campaign kicked off with a record 238 locations in the US, Canada, Australia, England, Northern Ireland & Denmark. As I have mentioned in the past, these campaigns have born fruit in several ways. 1st of all, in the fact that many hundreds of unborn children have been spared by their presence. Also, as a result of prayer, several sites have closed. Also there have been people who worked there leaving because God touched their hearts & theN became pro-life.

Pope Benedict Sends Greetings to 40 Days For Life Campaign

By Thaddeus M. Baklinski
LONDON, UK, September 24. 2010 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Prior to the papal visit to England, the 40 Days for Life campaign team in London wrote to the pope, and has now received a letter in response from his office.
Monsignor Peter B. Wells, responding for the Holy Father, wrote that the pope "appreciates the sentiments which prompted you to write to him about your work."
According to the letter, the pope will be personally praying for "you and all those who seek to protect life in the womb, that their efforts might lead to a growing appreciation of the inalienable rights of the unborn child."
A scan of the exact letter is posted online here.
David Bereit, National Director of 40 Days for Life in the U.S., told LifeSiteNews, "We were encouraged by this communication" from the pope, and urged all those involved in the 40 Days for Life campaign to, "Keep up the great work!"
Information on the 40 Days campaigns in Canada is available from the Campaign Life Coalition website.
