Rebecca Mitalski is a passionate and dedicated worker for the cause of ending abortion, which has led her to become involved with 40 Days For Life, which is the largest international pro-life mobilization in history. The movement uses peaceful measures including prayers, fasting, and vigils. Rebecca, a compassionate individual, has chosen to participate in this movement due to its principles and methods of putting an end to abortion.

Rebecca Mitalski points out that the emphasis with 40 Days For Life is helping families through the painful period of being faced with a decision on whether or not to have an abortion. Their goal is to show these families that a baby is a beautiful gift that will far outweigh the fears and worries that might be associated with having a child. Prayer is a central part of 40 Days For Life. Rebecca says that hers and the rest of the movements' prayers are for women who are at risk of having an abortion, children who are at risk of being aborted, men and women who are troubled by a prior abortion, people who work at Planned Parenthood or abortion centers, and local and national leaders with the power to make policy changes.

Another aspect of 40 Days For Life that Rebecca Mitalski enjoys is how it captures the best of two worlds. It is an internationally coordinated mobilization that has the power to reach and organize millions upon millions of people around the world, yet every unique city's 40 Days For Life is managed by local volunteers so planning is flexible and volunteers are able to accommodate for specific logistical issues or troubles that may arise. As Rebecca attests, this ensures that the overarching goals of the international movement are able to be met in a manner that is respectful to members of each city; the neighbors who eat, work, and pray together and whose sufferings and joys will be felt immediately.
