Total, we are now up to 51 participating Sidewalk Advocates for Life locations! Praise God!
If you live near one of these locations, you might consider attending a local training and becoming an active Sidewalk Advocate, offering loving, life-affirming alternatives to women and men entering the abortion center. The spirit is peaceful and the effectiveness of this method is undeniable — simply because it’s based in sharing the love of Christ!
Details on how to get involved in your local Sidewalk Advocates for Life program are found in the LOCATIONS tab on our main website: https://sidewalkadvocates.org/
What if you don’t have a location near you?
Consider bringing a Sidewalk Advocates for Life Sidewalk Advocacy program to your local community this Winter! Applications will be open from February 1-28! Be sure to visit our website for more details: www.sidewalkadvocates.org.
Let us know if you have any questions! In the meantime, we ask you to keep all of our new and existing locations in your prayers, that many lives continue to be saved and many hearts transformed by the grace and power of God’s love!
It is our prayer that no abortion facility in America and beyond goes without peaceful, loving, well-trained sidewalk counselors! Thank you for joining us in this incredibly important mission to save lives and transform hearts!

WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL (JANUARY 11-17, 2015): “WHAT’S IN STORE”
by Lauren Muzyka, Executive Director, Sidewalk Advocates for Life
Verse(s): “…Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them that love him.” — 1 Cor 1:2:19
Reflection: Here we are — a brand new year, a fresh start, and a time to move forward with our dreams! In short, a year, full of so many wonderful possibilities!
When I sit here and think about the next 11-12 months, I cannot help but wonder at all the blessings God has in store for us. Who knows what ways the pro-life caused will be advanced! How many babies will be saved? How many hearts transformed? How many workers will leave the business? How many more abortion facilities will close? And how will it be accomplished?
We have no idea! Still, one thing we are sure of — if we show up, God will. When God’s people pray, seek his face, turn from their wicked ways and put their faith into action (cf. 2 Chron 7:14) …miracles happen! One only need look around and see what happens when people of faith and conscience spring into action! Yes, there may be times that we experience a lull or wonder if our prayers are being heard, but we are guaranteed an eventual victory if we do not give up! (cf. Gal 6:9).
Call to Action: Let’s get on our knees, ask God for a powerful 2015 for the cause of life, then resolve to follow through on what He would have us do! The blessings are out there and ours for the taking if we resolve to walk with Him and put our living faith into action!
