40 Days for Life - Northeast Philadelphia

The following article was reported on LifeSiteNews on June 21, 2018:

“Planned Parenthood has announced it intends to spend heavily to ensure that pro-abortion Democrat Tom Wolf remains the Governor of Pennsylvania.


 

“With nearly 75% of the Pennsylvania legislature opposed to safe and legal abortion, Governor Tom Wolf is critical to Planned Parenthood’s survival,” Planned Parenthood Pennsylvania Advocates & PAC declares in its solicitation for online donations. The group plans to spend $1.5 million toward his reelection this fall, the Tribune-Review reports.”


You may not have $1.5 million to fight against the actions of Planned Parenthood, but you do have one hour. Just one hour during a 40-day vigil period is all that we are asking to keep the pro-life message alive and possibly save a child from abortion.

The 40 Days for Life Fall 2018 campaign begins on September 26th and ends on November 4th. Please consider taking an hour to stand outside the Planned Parenthood abortion clinic at Roosevelt Boulevard & Comly Road to peacefully pray for and support the children whose lives may be ended that day and for their mothers and fathers who are struggling with the decision to save a life or to end a life.


This is NOT a protest. It is a faith-filled campaign that hopes to promote the sanctity of life through prayer and fasting. Please visit the 40Days for Life Northeast Philadelphia website for vigil details or contact Anita Flynn at: aflynn3250@yahoo.com

We may not be able to stop Planned Parenthood’s requests for donations to Governor Wolf’s campaign but we can show up at Planned Parenthood’s doorstep to prove that our prayerful voice is still strong in support of children who have no voice.

Pro-Abortion EMILY’s List Targets Pro-life Pennsylvania Lawmakers

PA Pro-Life Federation

Fresh from a stinging defeat in 2016, the pro-abortion political action committee known as EMILY’s List is setting its sights on Pennsylvania next year. 

Pennsylvania was among the blue-turned-red states that helped propel pro-life President Donald Trump to the White House last year. The Keystone state is also home to strong pro-life majorities in the state House of Representatives and the state Senate.

Now EMILY’s List is telling the news media it is working to flip both PA chambers to pro-abortion Democratic control.

Pro-abortion 

Gov. Tom Wolf

A published report says PA is being targeted by the pro-abortion group because of common sense legislation such as a bill which would ban the brutal practice of dismemberment abortion, in which a living preborn baby is torn limb by limb from a mother’s womb. A statewide poll showed the ban actually has the support of a majority of Pennsylvanians, with the support higher among women than men.

Emily’s List is also upset by bills which would defund the abortion giant Planned Parenthood and would allow doctors to exercise their conscience rights to avoid participation in anti-life activities.

An official with Emily’s List is quoted as saying, “That is why EMILY’s List is recruiting an historic number of strong, pro-choice Democratic women leaders in 2018 to hold these Republican legislators accountable for their out-of-touch agenda and defeat them next year.”

The nerve of those pro-life Pennsylvania lawmakers—trying to protect conscience rights and trying to bar funding from an organization headed by people who casually discuss the harvesting of baby body parts while eating salad and sipping wine! 

It should also be noted that a number of those pro-life legislators are women—strong women who believe in empowering other women to help them make life-affirming decisions for themselves and their families.

Of course, Emily’s List and Planned Parenthood have a reliable ally in pro-abortion Governor Tom Wolf, who has vowed to veto any pro-life legislation that crosses his desk. The Governor also holds the distinction of once having served as a volunteer escort at a Planned Parenthood abortion facility.
