A note from Marian Bourek, Executive Director Just when I begin to question if it is helping, something extra-ordinary happens.

It was near the end of our shift prayerfully protesting in front of Planned Parenthood.

Several Beckman Catholic High School students, Mrs. Koetz, Brother Bill and I were preparing to leave when a gentleman stopped to share his story: “Thank you for being here,� he said. “You saved my daughter.� “I was taking a vacation day and decided to surprise my wife by doing the laundry,� he explained. “I had watched her many times as she checked each pocket for loose change or any other items that might not fare well in the washer. So I diligently searched the pockets of my daughter’s jeans. Sure enough, there was something lining her pocket. It was a business card from Clarity Clinic. I was somewhat familiar with Clarity Clinic and all the good works that they do, but I couldn’t imagine why my daughter had their card. Maybe she was volunteering?�

Oh well, on with the task at hand. “When my daughter arrived at home, I asked her about the card. Long story short: She is pregnant. Did I tell you she is only 17 and still in high school? She had gone to Planned Parenthood out of fear and desperation, looking for help. An abortion was scheduled.� But. . .

With tears in his eyes he thanked us again. He shared that when his daughter was leaving PP, one of our protesters handed her the Clarity Clinic card and asked if they could help her. They asked if she would consider going somewhere else. She accepted the card, stuffed it in her pocket and didn’t think about it again. “My daughter and I had a long talk - - something we hadn’t done in a very long time,� he admitted. “Accepting her pregnancy was probably the hardest thing my wife and I have ever faced. But the thought of accepting an abortion was unfathomable.�

Thank God she took the card from one of our prayerful protesters! Thank God this gentleman does laundry! It’s amazing what God can do with such little effort on our part.

As he drove away, he shared additional good news: “We just returned from her 2nd doctor’s visit. We were told she is expecting twins. I’m going to be a grandpa - TWICE!â€? He thanked us one more time and handed DCRTL a $100 bill. ´*UHDW ZRUNV DUH SHUIRUPHG QRW E\ VWUHQJWK EXW E\ SHUVHYHUDQFH Âľ 6DPXHO -RKQVRQ +DV LW EHHQ D ZKLOH VLQFH \RX VWRRG LQ SUD\HUIXO ZLWQHVV LQ IURQW RI 3ODQQHG 3DUHQWKRRG" &RQWDFW (OOHQ 0DUNKDP DW SURWHVWSS#PFKVL FRP WR ILQG D WLPH WR VKRZ KRZ PXFK \RX FDQ SHUVHYHUH

LIFE IS . . . .

At DCRTL we believe that life is precious! We believe that babies are a great source of joy and that raising children is an incredibly rewarding experience full of irreplaceable moments.

Our new Life Is . . . campaign is about capturing these moments and sharing them with the community. Children come full of darling memories that let you know what life is all about. From spaghetti-covered faces to tubby-time games, these are the moments you wouldn’t trade for the world. And these are the moments that are meant to be shared.

Let the world see what life means to you by sending in an adorable photo of your child for use in local ads and billboards. Simply e-mail your photo to pictures@lifeismoments.com with a short description of the special moment. Or drop off a photo at our office. We’ll be sure to let you know if we decide to use your photo. Get involved! Share your little bundle of joy with the world and help spread the message that life is precious.

Pro-Life With Love, a pro-life group associated with St. Ludmila’s Parish in Cedar Rapids, owns a beautiful pro-life sign that reads: “God is Pro-Life. Are You?” It currently sits on private land along I -380; however, it must soon be moved. This message must still be heard (or seen). Pro-Life With Love is looking for a new location. Do you happen to own property or know someone who owns property who might be willing to allow Pro-Life With Love to erect this sign on their land? It is preferable to find a location with high visibility. If you have any suggestions for locations in the Cedar Rapids area, please call our office. (563-556-5960)

GIRL SCOUTS

The World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) has member organizations across the globe, the largest of which is Girl Scouts USA (GSUSA).

In May 2013, WAGGGS participated in Women Deliver, a global conference with the purpose of â&#x20AC;&#x153;calling for action to improve the health and well-being of girls and women.â&#x20AC;? The conference featured speakers such as late-term abortionist LeRoy Carhart, philosopher Peter Singer, who supports infanticide and euthanasia, and Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. Some of the breakout sessions were entitled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Outing and Addressing Abortion Stigmaâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why I Perform Abortions.â&#x20AC;? Exhibitors included many abortion and population control advocates such as Amnesty International, Guttmacher Institute, international Planned Parenthood Federation, Marie Stopes International, Planned Par $IWHU \HDUV ZH KDYH OHDUQHG WKDW ZH enthood Federation of America, United PXVW IRUJH RQ LQ WKLV ILJKW E\ SURYLGLQJ Nations Population Fund, and WAGGGS.

The Morning After Pill The morning after pill will now be available to anyone, at any age, over the counter â&#x20AC;&#x201C; no prescription needed.

Unfortunately, this is going to make things much easier for sexual predators â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who will have a much easier time of covering up their sexually deviant crimes, statutory rapes and incestuous relations by giving these pills to their victims â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with or without their knowledge.

Please keep all our young people in your prayers.

The Coalition for Life of Iowa (CFLI) President, Susan Martinek, expected a rigorous process requiring full disclosure of all relevant information. But she told Congress in early June, 2013 there were a few things she had not anticipated: That the IRS would try to force the organization to stop protesting outside Planned Parenthood and that it would ask about its members’ prayers.

tax-exempt statute, contrasting it with “scientific or medical facts.”

In June 2009, an IRS agent named Ms. Richards “told me verbally that we needed to send in a letter with the entire board’s signatures stating that, under penalty of perjury, we would not picket, protest, or organize groups to picket/protest outside of Planned Parenthood.”

Rather than comply, CFLI contacted the Thomas More Society, a public interest legal organization based in Chicago. “The IRS granted us tax-exempt status just one week after our Thomas More Society attorney sent a letter to IRS Agent Richards,” “We never thought Martinek said.
