Great News!  With the help of Almighty God and a little help from “His” friends Rachael’s Park Memorial has been restored and is ministering the freedom and forgiveness that only Jesus can give even during the renovation.

Praise the Lord! ~ Flip

 

Restoration of Rachael’s Park Memorial

Rachel's Park 1

We are almost done with the complete restoration of Rachel’s Park Memorial. A special thanks to Pastor Dale Sochia, who traveled all the way from New Orleans to do the lion’s share of the work. He had the tools and the know how to help beautify and restore the park. I want to thank Carolyn Knowles, Jeff and Daniel Matthews and Brother Thomas from our church, Grace Church, who helped with the labor. I also want to thank John Pisciotta, Pro-life Waco, Donna Garner, King Jesus Ministries, and Bob Eoff for their financial support to help purchase the materials. 

There was another precious couple who came out to help and the Lord did a miraculous work. I did not know they were post-abortive till they came to one of the features of the park, The Wall of Remembrance. As they looked upon the plaques, the woman began to weep. The husband reached out to comfort his wife as they both broke. I literally felt the Spirit of God fall upon them and backed off till His work was done. As a result, they are contemplating on receiving further ministry from the park.

This special event took place while working on the park. It was another sign from God on how special Rachel’s Park Memorial is and how the Lord uses it for His glory and the benefit of those devastated by the sin and crime of abortion.

Most of the crosses are repaired and back in the ground. All the poles surrounding the park are secure. Prayerfully, no more cars will be able to run roughshod over this sacred ground again. To those interested, we raised $675.00 of the $2000.00 needed to purchase the materials to restore the park. We still need $1,325.00 to pay it off.

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.

 Read, then prepare yourselves for battle as we run to the roar in the mighty Name of Jesus in Rochester, New York, this summer.  ~ Flip

 

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,

 Rev. Chet and JoAnn Gallagher

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.

Many of you know Mark and Lisa Metzger and their wonderful family.  They have been such a blessing to mothers in crisis pregnancy situations and children “waiting to be born” in our city.  For the past three years they, and several other families, have been allowing the theology of heaven to become biography at the gates of hell here at Charlotte’s three local abortion mills, and hundreds of children have been saved. 

Not only that, they have found that the Gospel ministry at the gates of hell is the very best place to train up gentle warriors for King Jesus!

This is a great five minute video with an incredible historical perspective from the actual Supreme Court hearings of Roe v. Wade in January of 1973.

 Enjoy!  ~ Flip

Here is a three minute documentary done by Channel 9 WSOC NEWS this past Friday afternoon February, 22, 2013,uncovering the absolute filth of “A Preferred Women’s Health Clinic,” an abortion mill in the Charlotte area. It is eye-opening and stomach-turning to say the very least.

How God’s heart must ache at the murder of His precious preborn children. ~ Flip

“Our country is in danger, but not to be despaired of.  Our enemies are numerous and powerful; but we have many friends determined to be free.  And heaven and earth will aid the resolution.  On you depend the fortunes of America.  You are to decide the important question, on which rest the happiness and liberty of millions yet unborn. Act worthy of yourselves.”   –Joseph Warren, Boston Massacre Oration, 1775

“If revival is being withheld from us it is because some idol remains still enthroned; because we still insist in placing our reliance in human schemes; because we still refuse to face the unchangeable truth that, ‘It is not by might, but by My Spirit.’” – Jonathan Goforth (February 10, 1859 – October 8, 1936, (Missionary to China)

Invitation to OSA National Event, July 24th -31st, Rochester,NY 

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ:  Jerry Crawford and I are delighted to extend an invitation to you and yours to join us in contending for the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ and for Life in Rochester, NY this July 24-31st. For forty years the American Church has wandered in the wilderness, seeing a rise of Godlessness and 55 million children destroyed as a result of the United States forsaking our Biblical heritage and foundations.  Yet the promise of Isaiah 60: 1-3 rings true.  “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the Lord rises upon you and his glory appears over you. Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn.”

Could it be that OSA Rochester, NY will mark our passing through the Jordan and into the promised land of renewed hope, renewed righteousness and restoration?  Come and be a part of what God will do!  Rochester has been the site of historic revival during the C. G. Finney’s ministry in the mid 1800’s.  Rochester was a vital station on the Underground Railroad and the home of former slave, freedman, abolitionist leader, and Christian, Fredrick Douglass.  It’s time for the church to arise and contend again! It’s our turn now!

Mike Warren and Jerry Crawford, Rescue Rochester

 

Just one more nail in the coffin of “A Perferred Women’s Health Clinic,” an abortion mill, here in the Charlotte area.  Heatherlee Finn, a faithful sidewalk counselor, reported this mill to the Health Department as a result of another of a long line of ambulance calls to this location to rush mothers to the emergency rooms of local hospitals.  The butchery and filth of this place would be more than enough to close it if it were anything other than an abortion mill.  The abortion industry in America has won for itself “most favored business” status and therefore can continue operation no matter what the health department finds.  If this report were issued for any other restaurant, veterinary clinic, or business, it would be shut down until the situation was remedied.

The uncaring and inept abortionists, Ron Vermani of (“…You adopt those ugly black babies…”) fame, and Jimmy Isaac Newton, a sexual pervert cited on two occasions for sexual assault, and you have a recipe for disaster.  Mr. Vermani was fired by Presbyterian Hospital for botching so many surgeries while a resident there.  He has become a very angry and embittered man and has claimed that, because of What Presbyterian Hospital did to him, he “…no longer delivers pretty babies anymore…” 

He is right!  He delivers only dead babies.

The young ladies that work at this mill are not nurses nor are they nurse’s aids.  They are simply young ladies, some who have graduated from high school, who have been trained only by what they learned in high school.  They earn minimum wage and are simply used as migrant workers by an industry that cares nothing about them.  The abortion industry is an abomination that not only kills our youngest and weakest but makes freaks out of God precious people who are employed by it.  ~ Flip

 

These two videos (the first 3 ½ minutes, the second 15 minutes) were a product of the 40th Memorial of Roe v. Wade, put on by Cities4Life in Charlotte, North Carolina.  They were financed by the gracious gifts and talents of several Christian Ministries and businesses in our area and one in particular.  The first video is simply, “Answer the Call!”  It doesn’t need an explanation.

The second video gives you a blow by blow description of what happens when a young lady gets pregnant and comes to an abortion mill here in the Charlotte area and runs into the theology of the church house becoming biography in the streets.  Those in this second video are all of our folks and it displays the wonderful resources we have here in Charlotte for ladies finding themselves in a crisis pregnancy.  It is awesome what God is doing in the city of Charlotte to enable the Church of Jesus Christ the opportunity to “plead the case of the fatherless to win it.”  Jeremiah 5:28. 

Last year there were 376 moms who chose life for their children at the three abortion mills in Charlotte.  So many also gave their hearts to Christ.  All to the glory of God!

Enjoy!   

Tentative Schedule for OSA’s States of Refuge Campaign 2013

(Notice: time and events are subject to change)

1) Jackson, Mississippi: We are inching closer to the first abortion Free State. We may need to go back like the minute men of old to help secure this victory. Be ready to move when the call is proclaimed.

2) National Event, July 14-20, 2013,  Rochester, NY: has been chosen for this year’s national event. Mike Warren and Jerry Crawford need our help to break up some strong demonic strongholds. They are praying that our coming will revive the church and the ministry needed to defeat child sacrifice in their communities.

3) Washington DC national call: When the firstfruits of the States of Refuge campaign comes to pass and the Lord secures the first abortion free state, we will give the call to come to Washington DC at the Lincoln Memorial for the national unveiling of the Emancipation Proclamtion for the Preborn Child. There may also be a meeting at the Capitol to unveil the scroll of signatures reminiscent of William Wilbeforce unveiling the signatures in Parliament calling for the end of slavery.

4) North Dakota and South Dakota, October: We are planning a regional event sometime in the fall that will cover two of the States of Refuge, North Dakota and South Dakota. North Dakota stands on the verge of passing a personhood amendment. A call to rescue may be in order. The two cities that house the death camps, Sioux Falls, South Dakota and Fargo, Noth Dakota are three and a half hours from each other.

5) There may be other opportunites this year, (Wichita, KS) but this covers most of the year. If you have any questions feel free to contact us. God bless you all as we run the race of faith together and trust the Lord to watch over his Word as we proclaim it throughout our nation in Jesus’ name!

Across our nation abortion mills are closing at a record pace.  Here is a quick story about the closing of an abortion mill in Greensboro, North Carolina.  Today, there is only one free standing abortion mill left in Greensboro.

Enjoy!
