DEACON FOR LIFE

Were there to be no support in the whole history of ethical and moral thought, were there no acknowledged confirmation from medical science, were the history of legal opinion to the contrary, we would still have to conclude on the basis of God's Holy Word that the unborn child is a person in the sight of God. He is protected by the sanctity of life graciously given to each individual by the Creator, Who alone places His image upon man and grants them any right to life which they have.

From SFLA: what has Roe done for us?

March 5, 2014

What Has Roe Done for Us? Tour

Students for Life of America launched the historic What Has Roe Done For Us?
 tour on Monday at Oregon State University, the first of 25 schools in a
 dozen states that the tour will visit this spring. The graphic display 
takes aim at the myths from the abortion industry that legal abortion is
 good for women.

Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton have
 left more than 40 years of devastation in their wake. Legalizing 
abortion did not help women. The pro-abortion scare tactics that 
thousands of women will die when abortion is made illegal are false. The
 majority of pre-Roe abortions were not committed in back-alleys and the
 abortion industry has admitted that it made up the myth that tens of 
thousands of women died every year from illegal abortion. When abortion 
is illegal again, there will not be an epidemic of women dying from 
abortion.

There is nothing safe about legal abortion. Abortion 
will always be dangerous for women and bad for their health. Roe has 
done nothing to change that. Legal abortion has not made abortion clean 
or safe. Abortionists like Kermit Gosnell and Douglas Karpen are 
butchering women in dirty facilities. They are the norm for the abortion
 industry, not the exceptions. Legal abortion enables men to cover up 
abuse of women and coerce them into having abortions. We need to be 
offering real support and options for women experiencing crisis 
pregnancies.

National Abortion Facility Action Weekend

March is here, and we have a new challenge for you!

The
 Spring 40 Days for Life campaign will begin on Wednesday, March 5th, 
and we want pro-life students to get out and support local efforts. We 
challenge you and your pro-life student group to take action on Friday, 
March 7th, and Saturday, March 8th.

The goal of this year’s National Abortion Facility Action Weekend
 is to activate students to engage in community outreach. Your action 
will show the community that this generation is PRO-LIFE, and the tide 
has already turned for LIFE.

Rally your campus, church, or 
community pro-life group to stand outside your local abortion business 
to be a witness for life. This pro-abortion website will help you find a
 facility near you. You can saves lives with your presence, prayer, and 
assistance.

Make Your Campus Family Friendly!

Pregnant
 and parenting resources are important to prospective and current 
students. Without resources and support, pregnant and parenting students
 may be forced into a life path with little or no college education, 
reduced employment prospects, and possibly poverty. By challenging your 
school to improve resources and support for your pregnant and parenting 
community, you will be impacting not only your peers but also their 
families.These resources will also play an important role in the work 
experience of your school’s faculty and staff.

As the pro-life 
student group on your campus, you need to ensure that your peers are 
receiving comprehensive information about available resources (on campus
 and in the community) so that they can make informed decisions about 
their health and about their educational advancement. Moreover, your 
group needs to be pushing projects that will transform your campus into a
 “family friendly” community! Your efforts to increase awareness and 
resources on campus will encourage more students to recognize the 
support available for pregnant and parenting students.
