Prayer Request

by Karl Pieleck

The Heartbeat Bill goes back to court this coming Monday, October 24. This time Fulton County Superior Court will decide whether it violates the state constitution on right to privacy and other grounds. The trial is supposed to last two days.

In your prayers, please ask the Holy Spirit to guide the government’s lawyers and the judge and thwart the lawyers opposing the Georgia Heartbeat Bill.

GA Chemical Abortion Bill – (SB 456)

GA Chemical Abortion Bill – (SB 456)

The Archdiocese of Atlanta supports SB 456, a state bill relating to restrictions on chemical abortions. Let’s pray that the bill gets out of committee with no amendments added. More than half of abortions now are chemical (Click Here to Read an Article from National Review).

More From The Georgia Life Alliance:

The Biden Administration’s FDA has ended an Obama-era safety rule that would now allow abortion pills to be provided via telemedicine or sent directly through the mail without a doctor ever examining the woman in person.

“Georgia has a maternal mortality crisis, and women dying from complications such as obstetric hemorrhaging – the chief side effect of the abortion pill,” said GLA’s Joshua Edmonds. “This… Read More “GA Chemical Abortion Bill – (SB 456)”

The story of D-had an abortion because she felt alone and helpless…..

The story of D-had an abortion because she felt alone and helpless…..

by Karl Pieleck
Ok I wrote this so heavily hearted and sent before fixed all the typos AND something we left out of D’s story (and yes she had an abortion and it was too late for APR/abortion pill reversal) and this is important as at one point she said, “But why would you want to be friends with me as the very reason you are standing out here to try and stop women from having abortions is the very thing that I did….”
 
Powerful words….and what an opportunity we had to tell her about the love of Jesus and our love for her too.

Remember Chip and Ali who wanted to adopt?……
Also Remember Malieka – who was saved from aborting her twins.
Well, God used Chip and Ali’s story from the The St. Brigid Respect Life newsletter to direct me to connect Chip and Ali with Malieka to potentially adopt the twins.
malieka save twins 1.jpg
And how they bonded and Malieka chose Chip and Ali for an adoption plan?

DAY 9: The Good News Keeps Coming

DAY 9: The Good News Keeps Coming

by Karl Pieleck

It’s not just a clever tagline. Your prayers really do bring about The Beginning of the End of Abortion.

Case in point: over the last few years, 40 Days for Life campaigns in the El Paso, Texas area have helped put 3 different abortion facilities out of business…forever!

And the good news keeps coming. Mark, who oversees multiple campaigns in the region recently announced that El Paso’s Planned Parenthood no longer has an active abortion license.

“This means they are not able to perform any abortion…even chemical abortions under six weeks, which are still currently allowed by the Heartbeat Law.

A Message from Archbishop Lori: Support the Hyde Amendment

A Message from Archbishop Lori: Support the Hyde Amendment

by Karl Pieleck
 
                  July 12, 2021   Dear Friends in Christ,  

In the coming days, Congress will either support or defeat the longstanding pro-life Hyde Amendment. For more than four decades, with bipartisan support, this amendment has prevented tax dollars from funding elective abortions. This amendment has saved countless lives of unborn children and it is imperative we continue to support it.  

During this critical time, let us join in prayer for the protection of the unborn. But let us also, as citizens and believers, raise our voices to protect the most defenseless of human beings, the unborn child. Let us stand together in promoting the sanctity of life.

Keidra Baby Shower Update – With Pictures!

Keidra Baby Shower Update – With Pictures!

We had  a beautiful celebration for this young lady, Keidra and her daughter, 5 year old Aris! Keidra is expecting a baby girl in August!  Keidra chose life after meeting a Pro-Life group from St. Bernadette’s at an abortion clinic in Atlanta. Keidra lives nearby in  Marietta, so we joined forces with them to throw a wonderful baby shower with gifts and games and food! A great time was had by all! This is proof positive that posting vigil at abortion clinics makes a difference! We can make a difference one save at a time!

Please commit just one hour per week for prayer and friendship at Planned Parenthood in Marietta!… Read More “Keidra Baby Shower Update – With Pictures!”

Virginia Governor may have abolished death penalty, but still believes in born alive abortions.

Virginia Governor may have abolished death penalty, but still believes in born alive abortions.

Restating the Respect for Life belief that “All human life is sacred, from conception to natural death – is directly opposed to hypocrites like this Governor who abolished the death penalty, but still believes in abortions after birth.

EDITORS OPINION: Continuing to vote for politicians, who support abortion goes completely against the teachings of the Catholic / Christian faith, and one way to prevent the horror of abortion is to vote for Pro Life Candidates.

Please review the following links, the first restates the Catholic Church teaching on Non Negotiable moral issues, and the second gives more information on governor Northern.… Read More “Virginia Governor may have abolished death penalty, but still believes in born alive abortions.”

Here’s a way to prove “Pro-Choicers” wrong.

Here’s a way to prove “Pro-Choicers” wrong.

I’ve noticed more and more use of the pro choice argument of: You Pro Lifers only care the mother chooses life, after that they don’t care what happens to the baby.

We know this is a baseless argument and one way to prove it is to help out a mother in need. Especially a mother who chose life over abortion.

Cathy Schneider of St. Brigid Respect Life has an opportunity for you to contribute to just such a mother in need. Her name is Oluwabunmi Samuel (Bunmi) and you can contribute any amount to her and baby by buying or adding money to her Amazon baby shower gift list.… Read More “Here’s a way to prove “Pro-Choicers” wrong.”

Horrific: Scientists Use Scalps From Aborted Babies to Create “Humanized Mice” for Research

Horrific: Scientists Use Scalps From Aborted Babies to Create “Humanized Mice” for Research

by Karl Pieleck

Editors Note: This article and the underlying activities it documents is one of the most disgusting things I have ever read about abortion. I urge everyone who receives this article to please read it and reflect on the horrific actions taking place on aborted babies in research facilities in the US. I ask you to think about “How is this any different from the atrocities performed by the Nazis in WW2 on Jews, Catholics, and other ‘undesirables’ ?”.  Please include this in your prayers this Holiday Season.

The horrors of abortion take place both in and outside of the abortion industry.

DAY 36: Abortion Pill Reversal

DAY 36: Abortion Pill Reversal

The most iconic scene of the Unplanned movie depicts Abby Johnson’s pill-induced abortion.

Two grisly, heart-wrenching minutes earned the film an “R” rating from the MPAA…but also became the best educational tool pro-lifers have for illustrating the horror of chemical abortions.

Fortunately, the abortion pill reversal protocol (APR) has been shown to save about two thirds of babies when moms change their minds and pursue treatment after taking the first abortion pill.

Nobody is better positioned than 40 Days for Life vigil participants to inform women who have taken the abortion pill that it might not be too late choose life.… Read More “DAY 36: Abortion Pill Reversal”

DAY 35: Raw video after meeting saved baby

We are not entitled to results.

God calls us to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves, and results are up to Him, not us. When we focus on being faithful and not successful, God will show us the fruit of our labor.

JC in Yuba City, California waited an entire year before she learned that a mom chose life thanks to her presence at the fall 2019 40 Days for Life vigil. 

Find out how JC learned of the baby she saved last year in this new, raw video:

Fwd: DAY 34: Call the doctor! I’m keeping my baby!

Fwd: DAY 34: Call the doctor! I’m keeping my baby!

We now know of 388 babies spared from abortion since September 23–with news from local campaigns continuing to flow in.

After nearly a decade of 40 Days for Life campaigns, College Station, Texas has been abortion-free since 2013. 

That hasn’t stopped pro-lifers from continuing to host vigils, praying for women in the community tempted to leave town for an abortion. 

Even without an abortion facility, the vigil is still saving lives!

As a taxi driver drove a college-aged woman and her parents past the vigil site, the young woman asked, “What’s going on? Is this a protest?”

My Most Important Video
My music video Eyes of God chronicles real women, moments from ending a pregnancy, who chose life thanks to a supportive stranger, and now love their children dearly. This song was recorded by Third Day’s Jason Hoard, written by me, Lisa Rosemond, and features Jadyn Noh. Watch on Youtube HERE. Your share will touch hearts and save lives.

DAY 33: Saved by a button!

DAY 33: Saved by a button!

The positive pregnancy test couldn’t have come at a worse time.

The mother worried she was too old to bring a child into the world. Finances were tight. And to make matters worse, she feared that prescription medications she had been taking might have already harmed her baby.

Abortion seemed like the solution for this crisis pregnancy.

You The anxious mom and her husband said nothing when they visited their chiropractor, who was wearing a “Pray to End Abortion” button…

…but at a follow-up appointment two weeks later, the couple told the chiropractor that his 40 Days for Life button persuaded them to choose life!… Read More “DAY 33: Saved by a button!”

DAY 30: Risking death for Christ

DAY 30: Risking death for Christ

by Karl Pieleck

“What are they going to do?” Ruth asked. “Kill me?”

The question wasn’t rhetorical. Ruth grew up in Saudi Arabia, risking her life to practice her Christian faith. Social ostracization and heckling weren’t going to keep her from standing up for unborn children.

On this week’s episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we talk with Ruth about: The fortitude required to live out the Christian faith amidst the threat of violent persecution. How she experienced the culture shock of returning to the West where Christians can live out their faith…but choose not to
