Her car broke down and she had to walk to the 40 Days for Life vigil at her local Planned Parenthood. Her efforts paid off, however, because her presence at the abortion facility and her prayers helped to save a baby from abortion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none; overflow: hidden;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2F40daysforlife%2Fposts%2F2532884150110415%3A0&amp;width=500\" width=\"500\" height=\"541\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>40 Days for Life was created to help end abortion on the local level through prayer and fasting. Volunteers reach out in their own communities by praying outside of abortion facilities. For those who don&#8217;t live in an area with an abortion facility, they can participate by wearing 40 Days for Life gear, praying outside of their statehouse or another prominent location, handing out information on a college campus, or placing a 40 Days for Life sign in their yard. And those who feel called to fast during the campaign are invited to do so.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ:\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/baby-saved-from-abortion-at-planned-parenthood-after-parents-encourage-daughter-to-choose-life\/\">Baby saved from abortion at Planned Parenthood after parents encourage daughter to choose life<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>During 40 Days for Life, there are non-stop prayer vigils outside Planned Parenthood and other abortion facilities. Twenty-four hours a day for 40 days, a pro-life individual or group can be seen praying outside of these facilities in a peaceful and educational manner. According to 40 Days for Life, <em>up to 75 percent<\/em> of the women who have scheduled an abortion don&#8217;t go through with those abortions when there are people standing outside of the facility praying. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=pdESmROTS5A&amp;feature=youtu.be&amp;fbclid=IwAR18HPHeTdafe6LwHTaGxZ0RGZBIFuHxK59oyjmDuwdIdOWUs2YTeiqiYDI\">Heather<\/a> was one of those women.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/give.liveaction.org\/life-defender\/?utm_campaign=FA19%20LDMB%20LANWEB&amp;utm_source=LANWEB&amp;utm_medium=LAN\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-211393 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/GiveNowEmailBanner1-_091519-Ver4-01-700x175.jpg\" alt=\"https:\/\/give.liveaction.org\/life-defender\/?utm_campaign=FA19%20LDMB%20LANWEB&amp;utm_source=LANWEB&amp;utm_medium=LAN\" width=\"700\" height=\"175\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Already on the table just moments from the abortion, Heather thought of the 40 Days for Life volunteers praying outside. She says, &#8220;God got ahold of my heart and presented a Bible verse: Jeremiah 29:11. And I knew I could not do it.&#8221; Jeremiah 29:11 says:\u00a0<em>For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord.
