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.

Professor surprised his class when he did this

May 20, 2015

What's a Professor to Do?


                                 If you haven’t seen this image yet, you
 may be wondering why this professor is teaching with a child in his 
arms. Well, here’s the backstory:


                                 “So one of the students came with her 
kid, because she didn’t have a babysitter. the kid starts to cry in the 
middle of the class, so his mom, all embarrassed gets up to leave, and 
the professor took the kid from her, calmed him and continued teaching.”


                                 According to comments below the post, 
this man is Dr. Sydney Engelberg of The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, 
Israel.

                                 What
 an awesome professor! He didn’t question or chastise this mom for her 
effort to both parent and pursue her education. Instead, he embraced her
 efforts– and her child! What would our college campuses look like if 
our universities encouraged this welcoming attitude towards pregnant and
 parenting students?

US House Passes 
                                 Pain Capable Bill


                                 Today the House of Representatives 
passed the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. Please see below 
for a statement from Kristan Hawkins, president of Students for Life of 
America.

“We
 are so proud that the House has passed the Pain-Capable Unborn Child 
Protection Act and moved to ban abortions after 20 weeks gestation, 
where the preborn baby has been scientifically proven to feel pain. 
There is no excuse for the now pro-life Senate not to bring the bill to 
the floor for a vote immediately. U.S. Senators must go ‘on the record’ 
as voting for or against the horrific procedure of abortion at this 
stage in a woman’s pregnancy, where the preborn baby will feel every 
effort to end his or her life. It is inexcusable that the United States 
is one of seven nations that allows abortions after five months.”
