40 Days for Life 2026

The next 40 Days for Life campaign will start on Ash Wednesday – Feb 18 and end on March 29.

The first campaign in Kalamazoo took place in 2008 so this will be our 19th year. The number of prayers during those campaigns has to be in the hundreds of thousands. Thanks to all of you that have participated and prayed for an end to abortion in Kalamazoo. With the defunding of Planned Parenthood, the 2026 Lenten campaign may be the one that ends the killing of those tiny preborn children in Kalamazoo.
