Flawed "Fact-Checking"

Facebook penalized Live Action's account last week for stating that abortion is never medically necessary to save the life of the mother. But the two fact checkers used by Facebook are aligned with the abortion industry. Watch this video for Live Action's response.

Priests for Life Speaker

Available for Presentations

by Fr Denis G Wilde, O.S.A., PhD

Associate Director,  Priests for Life

Villanova, PA

frwilde@priestsforlife.0org

Social justice begins in the womb. As Associate Director of  Priests for Life I have offered weekend homilies or parish and school missions in over 800 venues for over 20 years on the most crucial issue facing us today: will we choose life or death to “solve” our problems individually and as a nation? Moses told his people in no uncertain words: choose life that you AND your descendants may live. How clairvoyantly true thousands of years later in America today those words are! Abortion IS about survival - not a selfish choice. And it is about healing and mercy as well. 

Invite me through your pastor to come to speak at your parish in the months ahead, most particularly in offering weekend homilies, but in schools and parish and civic meetings too.  

This is a critical time and we need to champion those who defend life and expose the fraudulence of those who now not only allow the destruction to continue but indeed want to push infanticide. Friends, brothers and sisters in the Lord, we are made in the Image and Likeness of God, not to be discarded as someone’s “choice.” 

Call  Priests for Life at 321-500-1000 to arrange my coming to your parish. Or email me directly at  frwilde@priestsforlife.org and we’ll get started!

Call now.  In the time you take to read this message alone several babies - our future - will have been slaughtered by “Choice.” 

Making a Gift of Self

by Bonnie Finnerty, Education Director

Something moved me last week, and has stayed with me ever since. Stopped at a busy intersection, I noticed a man in need, with a cardboard sign and backpack lying next to him. A car that had the right of way and could have easily kept going, pulled over, lowered the window, and beckoned the man to approach.

Conversation and smiles were exchanged. A large water bottle passed out the window and then a full grocery bag. After a gesture of gratitude, the man returned to his familiar patch of grass, eagerly examining his treasure, almost like a child on Christmas morn.

Your Last Chance to See Pro-Life

Diamond & Silk in Harrisburg

Due to the overwhelming demand, the Pennsylvania Pro-Life Federation’s 40th anniversary Celebrate Life Banquet featuring Diamond & Silk is SOLD OUT. But, there is a way you can still come and hear these pro-life sensations and see them in person on Tuesday, October 15, 2019.

As an alternative we have arranged to have theater style seats set up in a room adjacent to the banquet ballroom where people can attend their pro-life presentation on a big screen via LIVE video. After their presentation, Diamond & Silk will leave the stage in the ballroom and immediately go to the theater room for a brief chit-chat with everyone there. So if you are there you will see them in-person!

Reserve your seats for $30 each TODAY by clicking here !

40 Days for Life

Allentown Pennsylvanians for Human Life will be holding a 40 Days for Life Campaign in Bethlehem and Allentown September 25 to November 3. To volunteer in Bethlehem, please call Theresa at 610-704-6935. To volunteer in Allentown, please call Mary Ann at 610-570-2347.

Gosnell Movie Screening

The Concerned Citizens for Human Life Bedford is inviting residents of Blair, Cambria, and Allegheny counties, as well as pro-lifers in Maryland to attend a screening of the film Gosnell : The Trial of America’s Biggest Serial Killer at the Pitt Theater in Bedford on November 2, 2019 at 2:30 p.m . Because the film exposes the horrors of abortion, media bias prevented it from being widely shown in the theaters across the country. As a result many people have not seen it or even heard of it! Attendees may make a free-will donation to help defray the cost of renting the theater. Contact Doug Braendel at dcbraendel@gmail.com for more information.
