Their efforts illustrate why we’re seeing historic changes – more mothers choosing life\, more abortion workers experiencing conversions and leaving the abortion industry\, and more abortion centers closing their doors for good.” \n“We are tremendously pleased that April will be here to support our 40 Days for Life effort\,” said Molly King\, spokesperson for the local 40 Days for Life campaign in Fairview Heights. “She is an enthusiastic speaker\, and we know she will inspire.” Additionally\, we will hear from one of our local campaign leaders\, Kristi Hofferber\, who is the CEO of a local pregnancy resource center and a National Advocate and Pro-life Speaker. She will share her inspiring personal story of the value of EVERY life\, and the vital work or pregnancy resource centers. \nFairview Heights is one of 660 communities around the world conducting simultaneous 40 Days for Life campaigns from March 5\, 2025 to April 13\, 2025. \n40 Days for Life is an intensive campaign that focuses on 40 days of prayer and fasting for an end to abortion\, peaceful vigil at abortion facilities\, and grassroots educational outreach. Since 40 Days for Life began\, over 25\,000 mothers have chosen life for their children; over 260 abortion workers have quit their jobs; and over 150 abortion centers where 40 Days for Life vigils have been held have gone out of business.\nWood serves as Director of Litigation for the 40 Days for Life Institute of Law & Justice. She has practiced law for more than two decades\, including as an elected prosecutor in multiple locations\, a city attorney\, and a certified mediator. She has also run her own private practice. She has worked with grand juries and tried dozens of jury trials as well as countless other trials. \n\nTo learn more about 40 Days for Life\, visit: www.40daysforlife.com.

HSHS hospitals in southern Illinois\, including St. Elizabeth’s Hospital-O’Fallon\, St. Joseph’s Hospital-Breese\, St. Joseph’s Hospital-Highland and Holy Family Hospital-Greenville\, contributed to the effort to support Ukrainian hospitals in both rural and urban areas who are delivering health care to their communities\, even with an influx of internal refugees and both civilians and soldiers wounded by war. \n“From Southern Illinois to Ukraine: A Faith Response by HSHS” will be presented by Erica Smith\, Executive Director of Hospital Sisters Mission Outreach. In April 2024\, Smith joined Vatican representatives to travel to Ukraine and learn about the impact of donations. She will talk about her experiences meeting with Ukrainian physicians\, health care administrators\, and community leaders throughout the country and also describe how Mission Outreach continues to support recovery and rebuild efforts in Ukraine\, even as the war continues. \nIn addition\, attendees will learn more about Mission Outreach’s global impact and their advocacy for ethical responses to crises through responsible medical donations and other programs. \n“I’m excited to highlight the connection that our HSHS hospitals in southern Illinois have\, through various medical surplus recovery programs\, to the work Hospital Sisters Mission Outreach does in both the U.S. and other countries\,” said Chris Klay\, President and CEO\, HSH Southern Illinois Market. “Global health work is happening right here!” \nTo attend “From Southern Illinois to Ukraine: A Faith Response by HSHS\,” please RSVP to Teri.Mustain@hshs.org.
