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.

What does ‘pro-life’ even mean if you do nothing for the voiceless?

The following comes from an Aug. 29 email from the Survivors of the American Holocaust.

Picture a busy street in Los Angeles or Washington D.C. Men and women rush by, distracted. People hurry along, heels click on the pavement, taxi cabs fly by. Everyone has somewhere to be, some place to go. Unconcerned that one third of this generation is gone, they go about their daily lives unaware that abortion affects them.

Suddenly, a 14 year-old girl drops on the pavement and curls into the fetal position. A young man kneels to chalk her outline on the sidewalk. Then another young person drops. And another. In moments, dozens of people have collapsed. Others follow behind draping blood-red silk over their motionless bodies. The crime scene has been staged. All at once, the hidden holocaust is revealed. People stare. The world can’t pretend anymore. Seeing these activists represent the forty-two million murdered annually across the globe, forces them to look abortion in the face and see it for the crime that it is.

This demonstration isn’t purely educational, it is powerful. And it’s just one example of pro-life activism.

At the International ProLife Youth Conference, you’ll have the opportunity participate in events like these. We’ll teach you how to become an effective abolitionist. You’ll learn how to run toward the cries of injustice and rescue those being lead to slaughter. You’ll be encouraged by international speakers, community and student activists, religious leaders and young people, like yourself. What unites them? They are abortion abolitionists. You’ll hear countless pro-life methods and testimonials. The IPYC’s visionaries are passionate about equipping you to make a difference.

Slavery wasn’t abolished because of rising awareness. Nazism didn’t fall because society began to discuss it. And the killing of millions of preborn human beings won’t end because we simply claim to be pro-life. Wemust RISE UP if we wish to abolish this atrocity. We must RESIST APATHY. We must RUN TOWARD THE CRIES OF INJUSTICE. Take action with us this November and become the generation that abolishes abortion!
