Pro-Life Champions Dr. Alveda King and Representative Chris Smith Speak on Abortion and Healthcare
The following excerpt is from a press release received from the Pro-Life Ministry, St. Cecilia's, Rockaway, N.J. 07866
Rockaway, N.J. - A new video on You Tube, produced by the St. Cecilia's Pro-Life Ministry, takes aim at Washington's present health care proposals and longstanding policies on abortion. The video also offers a disturbing perspective on euthanasia, eugenics and racial genocide and the link to abortion. Featuring national Pro-Life leaders Rep. Chris Smith (R-N.J.-4) and Dr. Alveda King, the ten-minute video recalls highlights from their powerful presentations at an inaugural Pro-Life Community Evening at St. Cecilia Church in September (2009).
Congressman Smith co-chairs the bi-partisan congressional pro-life caucus in Washington. Dr. King is a niece of the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and a pastoral associate at Priests for Life. The video also features special guest, Kristen Day, executive director at Democrats for Life, and the author of "Democrats For Life: Pro-Life Politics and the Silenced Majority."

While studying to teach a Sunday School lesson on the value of human life, I was suddenly struck with the sad realization that we may have already taken the life of the baby that GOD had gifted with the ability to find a cure for cancer or AIDS or some other disease that is needlessly taking the lives of our citizens. And now we are reaping the death that we have sown. “As you sow even so shall you reap”. I wrote this poem and I wanted to share it with you. If you feel it might encourage others in the fight to save innocent lives or it might actually save a life in peril, please feel free to share it with others. May our LORD bless you as you fight to protect the unborn and the defenseless.
ReplyDeleteWHAT COULD HAVE BEEN?
Tiny little fingers
and tiny little toes
What she could have been
only heaven knows
Growing in the safety
of her hiding place
A beautiful little head
and a precious little face
Yawning and stretching
and kicking around
Moving and responding
to her mother’s sound
A future chemist
or an astronaut in space
Someone to cure cancer
for the human race
A wonderful mind
that could have found
answers to the questions
that have kept us bound
A precious life
so quickly is gone
And now we’re reaping
the death we’ve sown
To take her life
is a horrible sin
And it’s sad to think
What could have been?
