Come to the Kick-Off prayer vigil tonight at 7PM in front of the AMS of Pensacola!
Bring a flash light and a spirit of love. The president has made some arroz con habichuelas- so feel free to celebrate the beginning of this powerful prayer campaign to end abortion!
40 Days for Life recap:
This is a very powerful 40 day-long event in which people of all faiths pray for an end to abortion, and specifically for the closing of Pensacola’s last-standing abortion clinic: AMS Pensacola. Last year, we focused our prayers and peaceful pro-life presence in front of the “Health Center” abortion clinic on 9th Avenue. The day immediately after 40 Days for Life had ended, the abortion clinic was FORCED TO CLOSE ITS DOORS!!! God works in mysterious ways – and it was by no coincidence that this abortion clinic had been finally caught for having an unlicensed clinic lab for over 413 days! God does work miracles, and if we want abortion to be unwanted, unthinkable, and illegal – we need to actively pray for this to happen.
Lastly……
…come attend UWF Students for Life
first meeting of the year!
Meeting place: Room 272 in the Commons (upstairs)
Time: 7PM
Meeting will include: COOKIES!!! welcoming new members, and ice-breaker, March for Life pictures, we will watch an amazing video Bernadette calls “A window to the womb,” and sign-up opportunities for up-coming events.
I hope you all are celebrating the wonderful victory we have had with 40 Days for Life this year, having the 9th Avenue abortion clinic close. It really is a miracle! 413 days: an oversight for a “professional profiting clinic”? I don’t think so… If that were to happen at one of the hospitals around here, there would be outrage. This is a miracle, and your prayers and participation were a part of it! Thank you for those who participated! You can read what the national director of 40 Days For Life had to say about our victory here.
There will be a recount on the success of this fall’s 40 Days for Life campaign and I highly recommend listening! This will be a national webcast with former-director of Planned Parenthood, Abby Johnson, our local 40 Days for Life coordinators: Ernie and Mary-Beth Cyr, and other influential people who have experienced miracles in their own towns. Also, plans for this coming Spring’s 40 Days will be discussed. The webcast will start at 8PM Central time this Monday, and last an hour. If you can’t catch all of it, maybe you can catch some…
You read that right: The abortion clinic on 9th Ave has closed for good! A legal notice was posted in the Pensacola News Journal yesterday, November 2nd, confirming it.
The clinic officially closed for business on October 30th, the last Friday of this fall’s 40 Days For Life campaign. A handful of UWF Students for life were there peacefully protesting. We had no idea it would be the last protest in front of that facility.
Just a quick note about this morning’s vigil/peaceful protest at the 9th Avenue abortion clinic.
We had 12 members of UWF Students for Life in all!
That’s a great turnout for our first vigil! Even though it was raining, cold, and really early (5:30am), our group was there to defend the defenseless.
It really makes a difference when college students take a stand. We are survivors of this holocaust. We are the next generation of mothers and fathers. We have the most powerful voice on this issue.
To see pictures from this morning, take a look at our gallery page.
Thanks so much to everyone who came. We will be doing this again soon!
UWF Students for Life members and many others will be coming out to pray for the unborn babies this Friday.
Friday at 5:30AM is when abortions are done at the 9th Avenue abortion clinic. This is the time when prayers and presence are most needed. Just imagine: you could save a life. You could touch the heart of a mother and help her to see how much love that we have for her and her child; that she doesn’t have to go through with the abortion (as parents or boyfriend or others have most likely pressured her to do).
Come and step outside of your comfort zone to help the voiceless unborn. At the least, you can say that you were there on their behalf the day they were rejected and killed; that you, you did not forget him or her. This is one of the most powerful experiences I have had in my life; to be a hero and stand in honor and love for the poor unborn children who will be killed and thrown in the trash.
If you are a Christian, just think: If you could have lived during the time of Christ’s passion, where would you want to be? At home, or at the foot of the cross? Every human being is made in the image of God, so when human beings are rejected and unjustly treated, it is the same as doing it to Jesus.
You do not have to be a Christian to bear witness to the precious unborn or to hold up a sign that has “ALPHA center (Pregnancy Resource Center) 479-3616 We Can Help!” and perhaps make a profound impact on that mother to save the life of her baby.
I prayerfully urge you to consider coming out to pray and be a presence for the children and the mothers. We had twins saved this past Friday and hope all the babies will be saved this Friday.
We are trying to get 30-40 people out there this Friday. Please RSVP at the Facebook event page or by email. All questions welcome!
