God Is Going Back to School – OSA National Campaign

Hundreds of thousands of high school kids across the nation have been confronted with the Gospel of Christ, as the battle for their hearts and minds continues in the public schools. Martin Luther, the father of the Reformation, said that he feared, “…schools will become the great gates of hell if the knowledge and fear of God are removed.”

Indeed the knowledge and fear of God have been removed thanks to a sleeping church and a renegade federal court system. Our schools have become the gates of hell. But Christians are rising up to storm these gates of hell with the TRUTH. When we show up at the local high schools, all hell breaks loose and all heaven comes down. The weapon we use is the “sword of the spirit” which is the Word of God.

Gospel issues such as abortion, homosexuality, evolution, Islam, etc., are presented in the light of the Gospel of Christ and exposed for the lies that they are. Teachers, students, and administrators hear and see the Gospel of Christ presented in a way they have never heard or seen it before. There are no apologies, no compromises, and no prisoners as we set the captive free, demolish strongholds, and tear down every argument and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God.

12/8/04 Platt Tech, Milford, CT

Wednesday, December 8, 2004 This is a report from the streets as OSA-CT took the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ and Truth to yet another high school in Milford. Below the report is an article from the Connecticut Post the following day.

Seventeen concerned Christians came out to Platt Technical School in Milford today to reach out to the students. Fr. DeMayo represented the local clergy. We were able to have many conversations with them on the public sidewalk where they come to smoke. Lots of literature on abortion, abstinence, STD's and the Gospel was passed out. We also gave out "Passion" new testaments and the Books of Luke. Most of the students were polite, a few were demonic, but sad to say we see that most everywhere we go in the public arena. We pray that God's Word will not return void, we believe the promises of God. We thank the Lord for a beautiful day and someday we will know the fruit that came from the seeds planted today on 600 Orange Ave., Milford, CT.

As we read in Revelation 1 today with our OSA Daily Reading Guide, we know that things are not as they should be in the American Church. This revelation is a warning to God's people today, Christ will return to rescue His people and settle accounts with all who defy Him. We must be ready at all times to give testimony for Jesus. Victory is sure for those who resist temptation and keep their loyalty to Christ in their life. Evil and injustice will not prevail forever. One day God's anger toward sin will be unleashed) and I want to be on the right side when that happens). We need to sound the alarm in our nation, gather the people to repentance and get busy restoring what the locusts have stolen (Joel 2). Hope to see you at "the Gates" Friday. God bless all of you!

In His Service,

ANTI-ABORTION ACTIVISTS MAKE PITCH

Hand out literature, discuss health issues with students at Platt Tech

By Frank Juliano ( fjuliano@ctpost.com )

MILFORD- More than 10 anti-abortion activists handed out literature and discussed reproductive health issues with Platt Technical High School students Wednesday morning.

Representatives of the state chapter of Operation Save America, an anti-abortion group, spent about 90 minutes on the sidewalk in front of the Orange Avenue high school, talking to students as they came outside to smoke.

"We spoke to maybe 50 kids, and we gave out literature on sexually transmitted diseases, abortion and abstinence, and we handed out some New Testament Bibles." said Marilyn Carroll of Milford, the group's state director.

Platt Principal Gene LaPorta said the anti-abortion advocates made no attempt to disrupt the school day and they kept their distance, only speaking to students who went up to them.

"I had no issue with them being there, but one of their placards, showing a partial-birth abortion, was pretty graphic," LaPorta said. "It shook up some of the kids."

Carroll said her group visits one high school each month and has already gone to both Jonathan Law and Foran high schools here, as well as all of Bridgeport 's high schools and Bunnell High in Stratford .

"We get the best reception in the inner-city schools," she said. "We tell pregnant girls we'll do anything to help them, and we will. We try to take their excuses (for having an abortion) away."

Baby clothes and formula, equipment including cribs, even help finding child-care and a job, are available through Operation Save America, she said.

Sources said a Platt Technical student became upset Wednesday morning when group members began praying for his soul after the young man said he supports a woman's right to choose.

Carroll said a Platt student "told us he was a Satanist; trying to shock us, I guess."

Officer Vaugham Dumas said the Milford police were not called to the rally and that groups have a right to assemble as long as they don't block the sidewalk or harass anyone.

Operation Save America, formerly Operation Rescue, is headed up by the Rev. Philip Benham, a Methodist minister from North Carolina . The group's website shows Benham baptizing Nora McCorvey, "Jane Roe" in the 1973 Supreme Court case that legalized therapeutic abortion.

City resident, Jack Fowler said that although he used to be a lobbyist in Washington for anti-abortion groups, "Marilyn and people like her do a lot more than I ever did.

"They have saved lives," Fowler said.
