Your calls are working!  In the recent vote on AB 980,  Republicans defended life!   Due to your calls, five Democrats abstained from voting and ONE Democrat even voted pro-life!  Unfortunately, 47 Democrats still voted for abortion bill AB 980, to allow substandard building codes for abortion clinics.  
We need just seven more Democrats to vote NO on abortion bill AB 154!!  Reporter Peggy Bengs wrote an outstanding article on these two abortion bills.   
 
This week the CA Assembly will be voting on AB 154 to allow non-physicians to perform abortions!  Please  make these critical calls to Democrat offices, urging them to VOTE NO on AB 154!


This Saturday is the Showers on Wheels Baby Shower (see details below) and Sunday Our Lady of the Assumption Parish is hosting a spectacular Respect Life Faire from 8:00 am-1:00 pm.  Everyone is invited- please email me if you can help with the 40 Days for Life table! 
 
Memorial Day blessings to each of you.  As we remember our brave soldiers who gave their lives to defend our freedoms, let us dedicate 30 minutes of our time to defend the lives of women and children from abortion by making these critically important calls tomorrow,Tuesday!   If you would like to print out these important numbers and instructions, click here.  Read reporter Peggy Bengs' 
 
We have been working day and night this past month to OPPOSE these two historic abortion expansion bills, AB 980, voted on last week to allow abortions to be done in substandard building conditions, and OPPOSING AB 154, which will be voted on this week to allow non-physicians to perform abortions.  See a complete report of the AB 980 vote here and watch the historic video of the vote here (vote on AB 980 begins at 21:05)

But the politicians won't listen to anything we have to say, unless they hear from YOU, the voters throughout the state!  
 
Please make these calls!  The vote on AB 154 to allow non-physicians (nurses, midwives, and physician assistants) to perform abortions will probably take place on Wednesday of this week, so please make these calls tomorrow, Tuesday!  By your calls, you can be a part of history in opposing abortion in CA!  Even if you have called previously, please call these Assemblymembers Tuesday!

All you have to do is say, "Please put the safety of women first, rather than the profits of the abortion industry.  Vote NO on AB 154".   In the Assembly, there are 53 Democrats, 25 pro-life Republicans, and 2 vacancies. The abortion industry needs 41 "Yes" votes to pass these bills, so we need 13 Democrats to either vote No or abstain from voting.   If you know people in these areas, please urge them to call also, so that these Democrats also hear from their own constituents to vote NO on these abortion expansion bills! Each call takes about 1 minute, so in less than 30 minutes, you can be a part of history! If you would like to print out these numbers and instructions, click here. 
 
Please call all of these Democrats to vote NO on AB 154!

Sign up at the on-line Petition Drive to OPPOSE AB 154, the historic abortion expansion effort to allow non-physicians to perform abortions!

Wake up America!  Wake up California!  May the church arise to actively OPPOSE these abortion expansion bills, AB 154 and AB 980!  Why do we allow the unions and the abortion industry to be the most powerful political influences, while the church has been largely silent in defense of LIFE? I hope the following video might awaken us from our slumber!   Every Pastor and every Priest needs to be leading the flock to defend LIFE, as abortion is THE MOST IMPORTANT Civil Rights issue of our generation!  Don't presume that "someone else" is doing what each of us should and must be doing to defend the Least of His made in His image.  Please include this information in your church  bulletin, encouraging your church members to call their Assemblymembers (and include the phone numbers of Assemblymembers from your area).  Most importantly, pray for an "End to Abortion", opposing both AB 154 and AB 980!   

I hope this video shows you what is at stake when we remain silent. 
Abortion clinic worker on babies born alive,
Abortion clinic workers describe what they experienced.  Please stand up and be a voice for LIFE!  May the Church awaken to this atrocity and fill the Capitol in OPPOSITION to Abortion Expansion AB 154 and AB 980!

 
Choice Medical Group a late-term abortion clinic chain with SIX locations along the I-80 corridor, CLOSED!  Their Sacramento location at 2322 Butano Drive (across from Gottschalks near Watt/ElCamino) CLOSED last week, along with Fremont and San Jose, while their San Francisco location closed in March, after 40 years of "business". Their Concord and Salinas locations had already closed, so through your prayers and the grace of God, an entire abortion chain has gone completely out of business!

When a Choice Medical representative was asked about the reason for closing, she responded, "We just didn't have enough patients."  Thank you Lord! This business specialized in abortions through six months of pregnancy, charging up to $3,000 for a 24 week "termination"! We had our Sacramento 40 Days for Life at the Butano facility in 2008 and 2009, resulting in over 32 babies saved that we know about! The babies saved from abortion at Butano 
For all the babies lost to abortion, we continue our prayers, now focused at 1750 Wright Street.  
are now 4-5 years old! The most well known baby saved at this location is beautiful special-needs little girl Khya, with whom we celebrated her 2nd birthday just a few weeks ago! Watch Khya's story here. 

Your prayerful presence makes such a difference, helping Moms with loving support as they are making an important life-ending and life-changing decision.  Praise the Lord for closing the Butano clinic last week and the late-term abortion business at 53rd/F Street earlier this year, while we continue our prayers at 1750 Wright Street Monday-Friday mornings, from 9:00 am to 11:00 am, hoping to help more Mothers choose LIFE, praying for the conversion of more clinic workers, and the closure of these abortion businesses.   Read what one of the abortion clinic escorts recently wrote about her experience there at the Sidewalk, filled with half-truths and misinformation yet she was able to get it published in her on-campus newspaper.  Are we writing our own Letters to our own local newspapers??
