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.

Abortions drop nationally: #winning

June 12, 2015

Abortions Down Nationally


                                 News reports this week stated that 
abortions have dropped nationally 12% since 2010. This is amazing news! 
In some states, like Hawaii, abortions dropped an incredible 30%.
                                 While
 reasons do vary as to why abortions are down, the good news overall is 
that less abortions are happening, which means more mothers are choosing
 life for their babies.

                                 Why do you think that is? We think we have an answer...

How We Interact Matters

by Emily Wilkinson, SFL West Coast Regional Coordinator
                                                                  One
 of my favorite parts of being a Regional Coordinator is getting to have
 conversations about abortion with strangers on a regular basis. (If 
you’ve never had that experience, you should try it sometime!) Most 
recently, I brought SFLA’s Planned Parenthood Project  to a liberal 
California campus where we dialogued with passing students about PP’s 
abortion agenda.

               
                  One of the students who stopped to talk was a 
pro-choice girl with a lot of legitimate concerns. I really appreciated 
the opportunity to talk with her since the media so often portrays both 
sides just yelling over each other. We talked for a long time covering 
multiple topics – adoption, women’s rights, unplanned pregnancies, the 
need for accessible healthcare, and whether the unborn is a 
human/person. Then she turned the focus back to our display. Read how the conversation continued-->

Millennials Are Rethinking Abortion

A
 GALLUP POLL last month found that 50 percent of Americans identified 
themselves as “pro-choice” on abortion, compared to 44 percent who 
called themselves “pro-life.” It was the first time in seven years that 
the pro-choice label was more popular.

                                 Whatever Americans may call themselves, however, fewer and fewer are getting abortions.


                                 From the Associated Press this week 
came word that abortions are plunging in almost every state, in many 
cases by more than a fifth since 2010. “Abortions have declined in 
states where new laws make it harder to have them,” the AP’s David Crary
 wrote, “but they’ve also waned in states where abortion rights are 
protected.” Continue reading-->
