Day of Prayer for the Legal Protection of Unborn Children

The Church has set aside Jan. 22 as a Day of Prayer for the Legal Protection of Unborn Children.

 

Every day in the U.S., 3000 children are murdered in the womb. That means that 1,095,000 children are executed in the womb every year.  Our legal system does not protect those children. We are putting forth significant effort to protect the 6- and 7-year child that goes to school—we do not want to see a repeat of the Newtown massacre, and rightly so. Why are we not fighting to stop the massacre of unborn children? Why does this country detest what happened in Newtown on Dec. 14, 2012 and not detest  the murdering  of  3000 children every day, 150x’s more than at Newtown on that dreadful day?

May God stop the hand of the abortionist! May God stop the parents who are planning to kill the child they have conceived within the past 9 months.  May God open the minds and hearts of our president, vice-president and the members of Congress to reverse the Roe vs. Wade legislation that, 40 years ago today, made the murdering of unborn children a legal right of the mother/parents of that child. May God rise up persons in our presidency and congress, within our churches and society who have the strength to challenge the immorality that has allowed such an abominable sin against humanity. May we once again respect an unborn child’s right to life, trust God’s plan for that child: “For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord; they are plans for peace, not disaster, to give you a future filled with hope” (Jeremiah 29:11).
