A Sidewalk Turnaround

As Kathryn mentions below, a couple to whom Kim had given a brochure in front came out of PP and sat a while on the bench in back; both Kim and Bentley called to them and they eventually came walking out the driveway and asked, “Where do we go?”  They had an ultrasound inside which showed the baby at 21 weeks, too far along for PP to do an abortion.  But they refused to tell them if the baby was a boy or girl.  (Amy tells us that PP makes clients sign a form stating that they will not be shown the ultrasound... lest they change...

View from the Side Walk

Not a whole lot of people entered the front entrance where a number of us stood to counsel and to pray - two couples, two single women, and one woman dropped off. Most noteworthy was a situation with a very young, scared looking woman who when approaching the building was quickly surrounded by two escorts. Theresa and I attempted to talk to her and did our best, but the woman escort, a regular, grabbed her by the arm and steered her past us into the door of PP. I would have talked to Steve (and maybe still will), but the other escort present (our doctor "friend" - a reasonable fellow), quickly...

Days at the Capital

Just got back from Catholic Days at the Capitol.  Visited with Senator Gruters and Rep. James Buchanan.  Both received us very graciously in their offices and we were able to talk to them about the Parental Consent Bill.  Gruters is a sponsor of the bill and Buchanan is co-sponsoring it.  We heard the debate in the Senate Chamber.  Most enlightening.  Senator Farmer argued that it would cost $250,000 to raise a child; so if a parent were not to give their consent, they should be made to sign an agreement to underwrite the unborn child's cost of living. (Can't make this stuff up!)  Senator Burman argued...

Births Have Increased 2.3% in Pro-Life States as Abortion Bans Save...

Pro-life state laws have saved an estimated 32,000 babies’ lives, new research claims. Since the June 2022 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization returned decision-making on laws regulating abortion to the people and their elected representatives, aggregated data reveals increased fertility rates in states that have since outlawed or sharply restricted abortion. The research was conducted by economists at the Georgia Institute of Technology and at Middlebury College in Vermont. The researchers compared birthrates between states that restrict and allow abortion. Dobbs “sparked the most profound transformation of abortion access in 50 years,” according to...

Births Have Increased 2.3% in Pro-Life States as Abortion Bans Save BabiesSara Garstka

Joe Biden is Trying to Push Christian Groups Out of Foster CareSteven Ertelt

A leading pro-life legal group is bashing Joe Biden for trying to push Christian groups out of the foster care system. As LifeNews reported yesterday, Biden wants to effectively ban Christians from adopting children in the foster care system. Biden wants to essentially ban Christians from adopting foster care children based on their religious beliefs and opposition to radical LGBTQ ideology. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has proposed a new rule that would prohibit families who do not support LGBTQ ideology from caring for foster children. But that’s not Biden’s only line of attack against Christian Americans. Biden’s...

Radical Abortion Activists Firebomb Pro-Life Office in RomeJack Figge

A European pro-life center declared feminism the “great enemy” of women following a fire-bomb attack on its headquarters. During a demonstration for the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women this past Sunday in Rome, which aims to draw attention to women’s rights issues, protesters turned violent, throwing molotov cocktails at the headquarters of the pro-life group Pro Vita & Famiglia. “The mask has fallen, showing the true face of transfeminism: an aggressive, violent, dangerous, and ideological movement that does not tolerate those who think differently than them and that does not care about poor women who...

Arkansas AG Rejects Amendment That Would Make Killing Babies in Abortions a Constitutional RightJerry...

On Tuesday Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin’s office rejected the popular name and ballot title of an abortion amendment vying for Arkansas’ 2024 ballot. The proposed amendment’s wording is available here. If approved, this amendment would permanently enshrine abortion in the Arkansas Constitution and effectively erase decades of good, pro-life laws. For example, the amendment would prevent Arkansas law from requiring abortionists to have parental consent before performing an abortion on an underage girl. Parental consent laws for abortion help protect children from trafficking and exploitation. Repealing those laws puts underage girls at risk. REACH PRO-LIFE PEOPLE WORLDWIDE!

Catholic Cardinal Raymond Burke Said Joe Biden Shouldn’t Receive Communion Because He’s Pro-AbortionSteven Ertelt

In a very controversial move among pro-life Catholics, Pope Francis has reportedly punished Cardinal Raymond Leo Burke and allegedly stripped the cardinal of his salary and housing. According to a Tuesday Associated Press (AP) report, “Pope Francis has decided to punish one of his highest-ranking critics, Cardinal Raymond Burke, by revoking his right to a subsidized Vatican apartment and salary.” The AP called the move “the second such radical action against a conservative American prelate this month.” Just two weeks ago, Francis removed Bishop Joseph Strickland as the head of the Diocese of Tyler, Texas. Strickland is one of the...
