If you have ever participated in or donated to a walk, run, bike, or bowling event to raise funds for an organization, you are familiar with the power of peer-to-peer programs to unify a movement, draw attention to a cause, and raise the needed funds to make a change in our community. With that in mind, we are embarking a first-of-its kind effort that will not only unify the prolife community, draw attention to the cause, and raise necessary funds but will also fight abortion and the culture of death on its literal and spiritual front lines - by bringing prayer to the sidewalks in front of Ohio's first abortion clinic.
In the spirit of Ephesians 6, we are embarking on our first ever Whole Armor of God Prayer-A-Thon" this fall, and we hope that you will jon us. Just register, pick a day to pray, and set a goal, and you will create a custom donation page to share by email or social media. A pledge form and brochure are also available for those who prefer them, and all donations are tax-deductible. Then, just show up to pray at your pledged time and day from October 1 to October 22. Every participant who raises at least $40 will receive our “Whole Armor of God” Tee shirt. Those who raise more are eligible for additional Thank-You Gear. All participants are invited to join our volunteer appreciation and family fun day on Oct 22nd.
Together, we are:
To register as an individual, Select "register" and choose "participant". You will be asked for your tee shirt size, some general information, and the donation goal that you set for yourself. You will have the opportunity to make a personalized website and donation page that you can share on social media.
To register as a part of a team, Select register as a participant, and select "joining a team" in step two. If your team is not yet listed, check with team leader (or select the option to start a new team). We recommend that all team members set up participant pages, but team leaders can register those without internet access. We can personalize team shirts with your group's name at 24 shirts.
To register as a grant-earning team, you must be pre-approved to by GCRTL. Grant earning teams are clubs, youth groups, and other groups that would like to participate as grant-earning entities. Grant earning teams can earn back a portion of their proceeds to fund pro-life projects such as trips to the DC March for Life or Statehouse Roe trips, bringing in pro-life speakers, or buying educational materials for a group event. Grant earning teams must be pre-approved to participate, and there are some limitations to qualify. Once approved, we will provide you with the credentials to register as a grant earning team by selecting "Grante Earning Team Leader" or "Grant Earning Participant." Grant-earning teams are eligible for customized shirts, customized group participation gear, and grants based off of a portion of what they raise. More information.

Before you register:
- The GCRTL Statement of Peace, Belief, and Mission.
- Tee Shirt sizing. We are using a unisex, fitted tee shirt. These are not the more "boxy" inexpensive shirts that you may be familiar with. They are the ultra-soft premium tees like the ones made by our friends at Stand True. They fit pretty true to size for men and women.
- Check out sponsorship brochures, bulletin announcements, signs in PDF and Publisher, and regular participant informational information.
