40 Days for Life is Fast Approaching
This is your opportunity to pray against abortion.
Searcy County Passes Pro-Life Resolution
On February 14 the Searcy County Quorum Court passed a resolution affirming the county is Pro-Life.
Searcy County is Arkansas’ fourteenth Pro-Life County.
Act 392 of 2021 by Rep. Kendon Underwood (R – Cave Springs) and Sen. Gary Stubblefield (R – Branch) affirms that cities and counties can designate themselves as Pro-Life.
Act 392 also makes it clear that Pro-Life Communities can install signs or banners announcing that they are Pro-Life.
Since Act 392 was enacted last year, Arkansas has seen a rapid expansion of Pro-Life Cities and Counties across the state.
Washington, Benton, Crawford, Cleburne, Pope, Jackson, Saline, Faulkner, Perry, Sebastian, Lee, White, and Prairie counties have adopted Pro-Life resolutions — and so have cities and towns like Marianna, Russellville, Springdale, LaGrange, Moro, Aubrey, Haynes, and Marshall.
Public opinion polling has shown time and again that the vast majority of Arkansans believe abortion ought to be either completely illegal or legal only under certain circumstances. It makes sense that so many communities in Arkansas would vote to affirm that they are Pro-Life.
Look for other cities and counties pass their own Pro-Life resolutions in the coming months!
You Can Come Pray Against Abortion In Arkansas
In less than two weeks, pro-lifers will launch prayer vigils outside Planned Parenthood facilities in Little Rock and Rogers.
The vigils will kick off March 2 as part of the global 40 Days for Life prayer campaigns.
Pro-lifers will take turns praying on different days and at different times from 7:00 AM – 7:00 PM daily outside abortion facilities from March 2 through April 10.
40 Days for Life is not a rally or protest. It’s a peaceful assembly for prayer and reflection — and it works.
Every year we hear stories babies saved, abortion clinics shut down, and abortion workers coming to Christ in the wake of a 40 Days for Life prayer campaign.
In the past, 40 Days for Life has said that the “no-show” rate for abortion appointments can go to as high as 75% when someone prays in front of an abortion facility. Praying outside Planned Parenthood and Little Rock Family Planning Services may be the best thing we can do to stop abortions on a daily basis.
