Toms River is a great place to live. We have great schools; Outstanding youth programs; A choice of churches for worship; Great places to shop and dine; Entertainment; Summer activities; Easy to get to Philadelphia or New York and more.
However, Toms River is engaged in a spiritual battle. It’s a battle between good and evil, between LIFE and Death. The center of that battle is American Women Services – the abortion mill on Rt 37 West.
Our most powerful weapon in this battle is PRAYER, and that is what the 40 Days for Life is about. NOT political protest, NOT public awareness, but PRAYER.
Daily prayer is what will strengthen us in this spiritual battle.
St. Paul tells us in Ephesians 6:11-13 to “Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”
Now is the time to put on the whole armor of God with daily prayer. Now is the time to take a stand in the battle between God and Satan. Now is the time to pray to stop abortion in Toms River and across America. Now is the time to join us in peaceful prayerful vigil in the 40 DAYS FOR LIFE.
Join us for just 1 hour a week between February 17 and March 28. Pray to end abortion.
