Friends of Life, 

In nearly every election, people try to minimize the Life issue.

Think about it, how many times have you heard someone say that voting pro-life doesn’t change things or that it won’t have an impact? Maybe you have heard it so many times that you have started to believe it yourself. Don't.

During this, the 111^th Congress, we watched in horror as lawmakers passed a health care bill that allowed the largest expansion of taxpayer-funded abortion in American history . What’s worse, they passed this bill over the strong objections of the American people.

The fact is, we could have prevented this expansion of abortion with a single vote. If one pro-life Senator had held fast, the outcome could have been completely different. 

The Life issue was decided on one vote. 

Elections have consequences, and in light of the health care law, this election is extremely consequential. Tomorrow, on November 2, 2010, you have the power to change things. And tomorrow, you can elect a pro-life Congress. 

Let’s replace pro-abortion politicians with pro-life leaders – let’s elect people of principle, people who will stand for Life when it really counts. Tomorrow is our moment. 

This year, vote for Life and tell your friends to vote for Life. Share this website with everyone you know.

Let’s make sure that the 112^th Congress is the most pro-life Congress in American history.  

Stephanie Gray, Executive Director of the Canadian Centre for Bio-Ethical Reform, responds to these and other questions as she builds a scientific and philosophical case for the humanity and personhood of the pre-born.

I wanted to share with you a book I recently read by Lee Ezell entitled The Missing Piece.



This is a true story written about Lee Ezell's own personal life experiences. At a very young age Lee found herself in a very bad situation. She was raped and became pregnant as a result of that rape. Ezell shares the emotions she experienced and how she turned to God and ultimately chose adoption for her baby. She talks about life before, during and after her pregnancy and adoption and how she eventually reunites with her daughter after many years. It is a story about life, choices and love.

I appreciated her perspective because she represents a small percentage of which is very controversial but seldom considered. She gives the reader insight into the thoughts and questions a woman in her situation faces. It gives this global issue a more personal view. The Missing Piece is an inspiring story of a touching reunion that will provide hope for those needing peace from God. It is definitely a recommended read. Lee Ezell is the author of 8 award-winning books and after reading this one I certainly want to check out her others.

I found this video clip of Lee and her daughter Julie that I hope will also inspire you to read this book.

"Together we will overcome."

On the 4th of July, the United States of America celebrates independence. There is no other place in the world who has freedom like we as Americans do. And yet, we seem to think that some of us are more entitled to freedom than others. We have classified organized killing of our unborn children as a freedom of choice and at the same time deny the unborn the freedom to live. A freedom that they inherited from the moment of conception. Something we should never have the right to take away from them.

"We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness"

When discussing the issue of abortion two key words must be highlighted in this infamous phrase from the United States Declaration of Independence. The first is CREATED. We were CREATED equal...not BORN equal. So many do not credit the unborn as being human and to those people I ask; "when are you going to get with the times??" Science has confirmed without a doubt that life begins at conception. A new life is CREATED at the moment of fertilization...not at birth...but at the very moment that the sperm fertilizes the egg. This is not a matter of opinion, this is scientific fact. Therefore, if all men are created equal, then this must include the unborn. The other word that is of great importance here is LIFE. It does not say birth, or exclude life altogther for that matter...it says LIFE is an unalienable right and if science has proven that life begins at the moment of conception, then again, we must extend the same freedoms to the unborn.

They are not called the "unalive" they are called unborn because while they are not yet born that does not mean they are not yet alive. Science tells us that they are, in fact, alive and part of the human race. Abortion destroys human lives and strips away their inherited freedoms. We must unite as a nation and declare independence from abortion. We must recognize the injustice and work to end it. Laws were made to protect the weak and we must outlaw the act of abortion that takes away the freedom of these fragile young Americans.

Contact your local life-affirming centers and pro-life politicians and start working to establish freedom for the unborn. If we stand united, we can bring about the change necessary to ensure that all Americans, even the smallest, have true freedom.

To the pro-life men and women fighting to preserve the freedom of ALL Americans and to those working to protect the lives of every human being: Thank you. May God bless you and may God bless the United States of America.
