2018 Prolife Prayer Challenge Each year during the season of Lent, the Pro-Life Action League asks all pro-life Christians to join in prayer for three individuals who deeply need God’s help. This Lent, we’re calling on you to pray and fast for three people who say their work performing abortions is inspired by faith in
Christ: abortionists Willie Parker, Sarah Wallett, and Leroy Carhart. Pro-Lifers who accept the 2018
Lenten Prayer Challenge will pray every day and fast from one meal each week for the true conversion of
these three abortionists. For more information go to prolifeaction.org
