WHEN THEY TELL YOU THAT ABORTION IS A MATTER JUST BETWEEN A WOMEN AND HER DOCTOR

The incredible photograph above by Dr. Rainer Jonas shows what a healthy, active intrauterine child looks like at 19 weeks. Like the bud of a flower, beautiful. But, unfortunately still a candidate for abortion.

THEYâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;RE FORGETTING SOMEONE

42 Years of abortion in America Reality of abortion since 1973 According to the most recent statistics, more than 57 and a half million abortions have been committed in the United States since 1973. On January 22, 1973, the U.S. Supreme Court in two separate decisions, Roe v. Wade and Doe V. Bolton, legalized abortion through nine months of pregnancy. Because of these two decisions, our families, communities, state and nation will never be the same.

If the unborn child is not alive, why is she growing? If she is not a human being, what kind of being is she? If she is a living, human child, why is it legal to kill her? Calhoun County Right to Life and the Knights of Columbus invites you to attend the Battle Creek Prayer Service for the Unborn on Sunday, January 18th at 3PM. The 30 minute service is for aborted children and for the spiritual and emotional healing of mothers who have had an abortion. The service will be at the Memorial of the Unborn located in Beckley Cemetery, on Helmer Road just south of I-94 Exit 95. Please come to pray. Dress warm and bring a friend. In addition, Alternatives of Battle Creek is holding a 24-hour Prayer for Life from 5:00PM on Saturday, January 17th, at their office building at 1346 W. Columbia Avenue. If you would like to sign up for an hour to go there and pray, please e-mail Dr. Matt Hennesey at Dr.Matt@ivaluelife.com. Prayers really do help!
