- Peaceful Vigil: a 40-day 12 hour a day peaceful and prayerful public vigil outside outside Louisiana's largest abortion facility in Metairie near Lakeside Mall. Visit our vigil calendar and then sign up to either adopt a day or hour, especially if you are a church or group!
- Community Outreach: taking a positive pro-life message to every corner of our city through targeted outreach.
