40 DAYS CO-FOUNDER VISITS ROCKLAND
Shawn Carney, center, at the 40 Days for Life vigil in Spring Valley
Shawn Carney, the co-founder of the 40 Days for Life movement to end abortion, was in town yesterday to attend the 26th annual banquet of the CareNet Pregnancy Center of Rockland.
Before the event he came to the prayer site on Perlman Drive to meet the Rockland volunteers. With great enthusiasm he told the story of the founding of the 40 Days for Life project which began with an idea around the kitchen table and which has since expanded to prayer vigils in 450 cities in every state in America.
40 DAYS FOR LIFE: Week 1 — Why 40 Days?
40 Days for Life is a national effort and community-based campaign to draw attention to the evil of abortion and its devastating effects on women and men.
Why 40 Days? In the Bible, God used 40-day periods to transform individuals, communities … and the entire world. From Noah in the flood to the disciples after Christ’s resurrection, it’s clear that God sees the transformative value of His people accepting and meeting a 40-day challenge.
And it is a true challenge. In some of these photos you’ll see volunteers praying in the rain (talk about Noah’s Flood), but that’s how important the message is.Please join us the prayer site on Perlman Drive in Spring Valley at any time from 9 am to 5 pm. If you can make a commitment of one hour per week, please email rachelminister@aol.com or call 845-492-6709.

DNC Flaunts Abortion — and Gets the Willies over Churches’ Welcome
The Democratic National Committee banned dozens of Charlotte churches from distributing gift baskets to delegates because the congregations hold values that are contrary to the party platform, according to local religious leaders.
The baskets contained Carolina praline candy and a letter welcoming the delegates to the city and offering assistance in transportation, childcare, or spiritual matters. Heaven forbid there might be a prolife sentiment in there among the goodies. Read on.
