Rochester, New York, is this year’s destination for our National Event, July 24-31, 2013.  The Governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo, is proposing the most draconian, devil inspired abortion bill ever seen on this continent. It is called the “Reproductive Health Act.”  This latest report just in from Chet Gallagher and our good friend Chris Slattery in New York City.

New York (ABORTION) Giants are not sleeping!

My friend, Chris Slattery, just sent out a sobering warning as to the increasingly gigantic challenges New York State prolifers continue to face I have included a short edit of his e-mail warning (below) because I want all of us to know the kind of territory we are running headlong into this summer for our OSA National event in Rochester, NY.

I am forwarding this to provoke us to love and good works, not to put fear in our hearts. Let us remember how very efficiently our One King, Jesus, will always use the least of us to even dispatch giants!

All we need to do is “Just Show Up!” so that “Christ will shine on you.”

Now is a good time to communicate with as many friends as you can to encourage them to run to this “land of the giants” with the rest of us in July.

Ephesians 5:11-16 – “Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for it is light that makes everything visible.

This is why it is said: “Wake up, O sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.  Be very careful, then, how you live–not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.”

Wake up church we’re called and equipped to be Giant Slayers!

 Read, pray, come…

 Bless you,

NY to Pass Nation’s Worst Abortion Bill

It’s the worst abortion law EVER to be posed, even worse than Roe v. Wade!

…And New York Governor Cuomo promised to pass it!

Imagine a world where a teenager who is perfectly healthy and nine months pregnant ……can walk into an unregulated abortion facility without her parent’s prior knowledge or consent,… have her innocent unborn baby brutally killed by an unlicensed abortionist,…and she doesn’t pay a dime-her parents’ health insurance covers it.

Not only that, but the local Catholic hospital is now fined or shut down, and the medical practitioners who worked there are stripped of their licenses because they refused to perform such abortions!

…And not only that, but agencies like our life-saving EMC-Frontline Pregnancy Centers would be outlawed as “discriminatory” for favoring childbirth over abortion!

Could this ever happen? Oh yes, and sooner than you might think. This is the nightmarish world of “all abortion all the time” medicine that Governor Andrew Cuomo just announced he will push through in the coming weeks. He has put his full weight behind the “Reproductive Health Act”, which is by far THE most radical pro-abortion legislation ever to hit a state government, anywhere in the country.

I’m not exaggerating about what this law will do. I wish I were.  Right now the state of New York limits abortion on demand to babies younger than 24 weeks. But that protection-and so much more-will come screeching to a halt if this evil bill, much like the one introduced by pro-abort Governor Eliot Spitzer in 2007, gets passed.

Even in a state like New York with twice the abortion rate of the national average, this law is guaranteed to make abortions more common, and more dangerous for child AND mother, as it’s possible for them to be. The sickening Philadelphia abortionist Kermit Gosnell who goes on trial for murder next week, and Leroy Carhart, who just killed a 29 year old NY woman and her 33 week unborn child, in a botched abortion, would be free and clear under a law like this.

The Supreme Court interpreted Roe v. Wade to allow some restrictions on abortion. But we’re now looking at a no-holds-barred, all-out attack against the unborn because this law: 

1. Could mandate abortion coverage in all insurance plans.

2. Could compel Catholic charities and schools to counsel and refer for abortion.

3. Could compel Catholic hospitals, to allow abortions on their premises.

4. Lifts the current age restriction on the purchase of the so-called “morning-after pill” at neighborhood drug stores, allowing girls as young as 11 to get the drugs without a doctor’s prescription or a parent’s knowledge.

5. By repealing the requirement in current law that only a licensed physician may perform an abortion, it endangers women’s lives.

6. Removes from the penal code criminal liability for the physician should the woman die of abortion malpractice. Would endanger maternity and prenatal care programs, which could be ruled “discriminatory” for favoring childbirth over abortion (another attack on our outreaches at EMC-Frontline Pregnancy Centers, which provide prenatal care).

If this law passes, we can expect the worst of the butchers, the late-term abortionists, to start setting up shop all over our city (already the “Abortion Capital of America”) to destroy even viable, fully formed babies. And-if you can believe it-face no risks of criminal penalty, even if the mothers were to die!

I dread to see what things will look like here if this law passes. It makes my blood run cold. As bad as it is already-and it is very bad-our city quickly could get much worse.
