New Breakthrough in Ultrasound Technology



Martin Fox, President
National Pro-Life Alliance


Have you heard about the newest innovation in ultrasound image technology? As you know, ultrasound images have always been a powerful ally to pro-lifers. But now, 3D Printing has enabled a blind woman to “see” her unborn child.

This new technique takes the ultrasound image and produces a 3D model of the unborn baby that the mother can actually hold in her hands. And while mothers have long been able to see a picture of their unborn baby or hear a heartbeat, actually holding a model of their unborn baby brings an entirely new dimension to the experience.

Technology continues to give pictures to what science has long known: that these unborn babies are just as human as you and me. And technological advances like 3D Printed Ultrasounds strike right at the heart of the pro-abortion narrative that an unborn baby is just a “clump of cells.”

In fact, a recent nationwide study revealed that 78% of abortion minded women who view an ultrasound image of their unborn baby choose life. And as technology continues to testify to the truth about unborn babies, you and I must continue to fight until all unborn babies are protected.

If you haven't already done so, please click here to sign your petition in support of the Ultrasound Informed Consent Act.

After signing, please chip in with a contribution to help us mobilize grass roots pressure for the Ultrasound Informed Consent Act.

Quote of the Day: Why is the Black Community Silent on Abortion?

000cute-black-baby-672

By Kelli
Live Action News

When women of color see that they can do something, they can be somebody, it makes a world of difference. We are so much more vulnerable to oppression when we think we we’re not good enough, or we can’t be anything we want to be.

Later that week Destiny tagged me in a post on Facebook that stated, “Black women have almost 40 percent of total U.S. abortions each year, despite Blacks being only 12 percent of the population.”

I already knew this; it hurts my heart every time I read it. Why aren’t people talking about it? Why does the black community treat abortion as though it’s a necessary evil, as though without it black women will never be able to succeed?

Destiny went on to say:

“College groups across the country – made up mostly of white young adults – ARE talking about it, but all that is doing is infuriating people of color. It comes off as a white savior complex. This is something that is impacting the black community so enormously but yet people within that community remain silent. That has to change, and it has to be black men and women leading the charge.”

She is absolutely correct. The question remained… where is the representation? Why the silence? Where are the people of color fighting for these unborn children who are dying at alarming rates?

Follow the Law, or Follow Your Faith: Obama’s Outrageous Order




by Father Frank Pavone, National Director, Priests for Life
for the New York Post


Long before the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act — a k a ObamaCare — became law on March 23, 2010, pro-life advocates, myself included, recognized that it could lead to serious moral clashes between faith and law, particularly in the areas of abortion and contraception.

And we were right. The law empowered the Department of Health and Human Services to compel employers to provide contraception and abortion-inducing drugs and devices to their employees through their health-insurance plans.

The case of Priests for Life vs. HHS, one of seven cases comprising Zubik vs. Burwell, now challenges that mandate in the Supreme Court, with oral arguments on March 23.

Voices for the Unborn Honors Families and Their Special Needs Children


Michelle and Matthew Odland family, Wausau


By Terry Noble
Voices for the Unborn

World Down Syndrome Day is observed on March 21st. It's a day to honor the love and devotion that families share with their special child.

These children have challenges and medical problems, but they also possess traits most of us who are "normal" lack, namely unconditional acceptance, love and true friendship without limits.  They have no guile, agendas and just ask for your love in return.  Sadly, 90% of these unborn babies are aborted. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/30/.


My friend, Florence, gave birth to a Down Syndrome baby girl.  Some years later, Florence and her husband decided to adopt two more children with Down Syndrome. I was blessed to know this family. The love and joy just exuded from them and their children. I learned so much about total acceptance and unconditional love from these "special" girls.   What follows is a poem that was penned under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

God's Special Gift

The sentence is death, I heard it today
The doctor told Mommy there's no other way

Please give me a chance Mom to show you God's reason
His purpose for my life will come in due season

I may not be cute or charming or bright
My speech may be slow, my limbs not quite right

My gifts may not dazzle, enthrall, or bring cheers
It's His love I can give, full of laughter and tears

His plan for my life, a Gift from above
might just to show others a glimpse of His love.

His marvelous love to reach just on soul
Who longs to be loved, accepted, made whole

I wish you could see all the blessings in store
It may never be easy; life won't be a bore

So Mommy please listen to His voice from above
Whispering "This is a Special Gift of My Love"

Global Abortion Tax is Coming - You Can Help Act Now





Austin Ruse
President/C-Fam
Publisher/Friday Fax

UN radicals are clamoring for a global tax on financial transactions that will be an independent revenue stream for UN programs that promote abortion and “various forms of the family.”

This is among the most dangerous ideas promoted at the UN and around the world in years.

A Global Tax for Abortion would inevitably result in forcing Christian countries to legalize abortion or liberalize existing laws restricting abortion.

C-Fam is partnering with LifeNews to fight back. Please  SIGN THE PETITION RIGHT NOW by clicking on the image below, and then share with  all of your friends and family. 


                 
 

Is the Global Tax for Abortion real?

It sure is. It has been discussed for years by global elites. Called the Tobin Tax, it would tax all international financial transaction including when you change money when you travel.

The Global Tax for Abortion was on the agenda of the World Humanitarian Summit that will bring government leaders to Istanbul this May. It was also a part of the Sustainable Development Goals that will be the biggest development program in history that will end up costing trillions of dollars.

We can stop the Global Abortion Tax but we cannot do it without your immediate help.




We're You There When They Mutilated God's Precious Innocent Unborn babies on Good Friday?‏





by Bill Miller
Bucks County Pro-Life Coalition


This past Saturday morning I attended the 7:00 a.m. Mass at St. John the Evangelist in center city Philadelphia on 13th Street below Market. The Mass was celebrated by Fr. Rayford Emmons. After Mass we proceeded to Planned Parenthood  at 12th and Locust Streets to witness and pray the Rosary. 

Our counselors try to give a brochure to the young women going in for abortions, but the aggressive planned Parenthood escorts just bunch up and push them out of the way. If the counselors stand their ground, the Planned Parenthood people call over the police, and we are told we are blocking the public side walk and if they persist they will be arrested.

Planned Parenthood had 2 beautiful young women all dressed up for Easter with flowery bonnets talking real loud while they played rock music to try and drown out the sound of the Pro-Life people praying the Rosary.

Catholic and Judeo / Christian people who should, but do not, attend these prayer Vigils at the Warminster Bucks County PP; the Chester County Planned Parenthood; Planned Parenthood at Comly Road and Roosevelt Blvd. (N.E. Phila.); the Norristown Planned Parenthood; and Planned Parenthood at 12th and Locust, allow the murderous evil of abortion at these facility's to go on year in and year out without a word or witness of opposition.

Many older pro-life people are unable to attend any longer because of health reasons, most are now in their 80's and 90's. They ask themselves "where are all the younger Christians, Catholics and Jewish brethern who profess to be Pro-Life and opposed to this deadly genocide on the innocent unborn".

This coming Good Friday, the most solemn day on the Christian calendar these Planned Parenthood locations mentioned above will defiantly be open for killing. They are like the people along the road to Calvary who adamantly SPIT on Jesus as he was being led to His Crucifixion. We have heard sermons and homily's this past Sunday about attending Passion Plays and Stations of the Cross liturgy's on Good Friday. 

I invite all who read this to come first to the modern Day Golgotha where so many innocent babies created in the image and likeness of Jesus Himself are brutally murdered by a suction machine the literally tears the unborn child limb form limb and suctioned out of its mothers womb.

Thousands of Radical Feminists at the UN Right Now‏

Thousands of Radical Feminists at the UN This Week...
Clamoring for a Right to Abortion...
Help US Stop Them…

                            


from Austin Ruse
President/C-Fam
Publisher/Friday Fax


As you read this, we are in dire trouble and so is the unborn child. 

A few thousand radical feminists are jamming the UN Commission on the Status of Women clamoring for all manner of awful thing, including the right to kill their unborn babies.

They also want this “right” imposed on all the people of the world.

These radical feminists have friends in high places. They are supported by the Secretary General of the UN, all the major UN agencies including UNICEF and the World Health Organization, the European Union and the US government.

These radical feminists are heavily funded. They have millions of dollars behind them, hundreds of millions if you include such wicked groups as Planned Parenthood.

We are outmanned 100 to 1. We are outspent one billion to one. We are always on the precipice of losing everything and now is no different.

There is a dangerous document under negotiation and we have a very good chance of stopping it. As always, your loyal C-Fam and Friday Fax staff are there…fighting back…

Stefano Gennarini, our legal expert, is there. 
Lisa Correnti, our Executive Vice President, is there. 
Wendy Wright, editor of the Friday Fax, is there. 
Rebecca Oas, our research maven, is there.
We are very close to some very good and pro-life delegations and I am told by my team that things look good, but things can change in an instant. The US, the EU and the radical feminists never ever give us, not until the final moment of the final day.

The Commission on the Status of Women is now halfway done. The final day is this coming Friday, probably at midnight or beyond.

I promise you that C-Fam and the Friday Fax will do everything we can to stop the radical onslaught. As we always have.

For 20 years the radicals have wanted to use the UN to create a global right to abortion and they have lost because we and collaborators have stopped them.

They have wanted to redefine the family and they have lost because we stopped them.

Today we need your immediate help to stop them once again. I ask for your prayers. Right now. Please pray for us and our success when you read these lines.

And we need your assistance. Our opponents get hundreds of millions from governments and from rich foundations like Rockefeller, Gates, and all the rest. We rely on help from regular people just like you.
