Spring was supposed to have sprung, but it was
ole’ man winter who met us outside this slaughterhouse in the City of
Slaughter
. Brrr, it was cold as the winds whipped us and our signs. Abortion-bound
mothers began pulling up onto the lot as soon as we set up our outreach.
The Stericycle guy was already by and made his pick-up.
God
soon began blessing us with much fruit. Erica and Jennifer from
Illinois
came back out and confirmed they were keeping the baby, but would be
needing help with supplies and employment. We exchanged contact info and
resource possibilities and they were glad we were there to help them.
BAM!
Another couple from
Missouri
came back out visibly emotional and confirmed to us they were happy they
did not go through with the execution of their baby. They thanked us and
accepted our literature. Thank you Jesus!

saves Something
was different this killing day as we rolled up to the crime scene. Oh,
that’s right. Hope abortion mill was doing its part to help women during
these exacerbating economical times. No, they didn’t offer to dismember
babies for free. Hmm… Just
like, “Where there’s choice there’s hope...” until you see the
choice.
The
death merchants were sucking it in, tightening their belts, helping their
fellow sisters with their financial woes (sarcasm). Yeah right! There
remains one industry that is keeping its lights on, and that’s the one
and only remaining industry left in
Granite City
: Hope abortion mill, the
Midwest
’s largest late-term baby killing mill. They just “jacked” their
prices up. Now their “choice” costs more. They never met a dead baby
they didn’t like. Way to go!
It
amazes me to see how many use the economy as an excuse to kill. What did
people do in the depression era? They didn’t turn to abortion mills to
answer their economical woes. It’s the 21st century. With all
the WMD “birth control” pills and feticides on the market why do we
consistently witness so many surgical abortions? Either the secular
progressives are acting like barnyard animals or the failure rate of
feticides is alarmingly under reported.
But
PTL! A couple from
Illinois
came back out, took our resource information, confirmed they were 6 weeks
pregnant, and were keeping their baby.
We
are seeing a run on “anencephalic” babies
lately. Another couple from
Peoria
,
Illinois
told Daniel they had to terminate their 14 week old baby due to this
condition. “We still believe in miracles. God is still in control.” I
guess they were not willing to carry their baby to term, who will most
likely die within minutes after being born as some couples choose to do.
It’s the natural way of dealing with this fatal condition. It is still
sad to see a baby die anytime.
Friday- approx 24
TX, VA, IN, MO, IL
1 save As we set
up our outreach to the abortion-bound mothers, a couple from Texas came
back out and confirmed they did not go through with the abortion. They got
into their car and drove off the lot.
The
bloody business was brisk this day. A family of four of Indian descent
from
Virginia
with a toddler boy walked right inside the mill. They may be friends of
the chief abortionist Mr. Shah. He is from
India
and a Hindu. They believe in reincarnation. We have noticed they get
special treatment.
Abortions
began earlier than usual this day as shortly after our arrival mothers
with their brown bags came walking out to their cars. It was sad to
witness a very young girl looking disoriented and an older woman
staggering to her car. The girl was sipping on a small cup of fluid and
looked over at us with a tiny smile on her face. We told her she had to
repent from killing her little baby and never come back to this place.
A
Black American family of six brazenly marched inside to be a part of black
history which is celebrated every day inside Hope Clinic. They threatened
us and cursed us as they approached the entrance.
Saturday- approx 27
VA2, MO, IL 2
saves on-site
ultrasound We
pulled up to the slaughterhouse and set up our outreach. It was quiet; no
screamers, no phony pastors scream-preaching, PTL!
Unfortunately,
12 cars were back from the day before. This included the UMSL SUV and the
Virginia Indian descent family. Very discouraging. We stand only 35 feet
from where they are barbarically tortured and dismembered over several
days. We are separated by cinder blocks and mortar.
Soon,
our reinforcements began arriving as youth groups and leaders from area
churches spread along the perimeters of the frontlines war zone. This
ticked off the deathscorts. They want no witnesses to this abomination or
the chance that an abortion-bound mother may change her mind on the
abortion at the sight of so many in defense of a little unborn baby. Our
Mother of Perpetual Help and St. Peter & Paul were represented. The
kids held a banner stating, “A person is a person no matter how
small.” They donned tee-shirts emblazoned with, “Person- Inside and
Out” showing a stick mother with a baby in the womb and a stick mother
with a baby in her arms. It was powerful.
A
white SUV pulled onto the lot with two girls and a fish pin on their
vehicle. She mocked our attempts to save her baby. Another couple cursed
our efforts and told us not to judge them. We offered, “Haven’t you
judged your baby?” They went inside.
An
hour later, the
Virginia
family came out. The father held a young toddler boy and put him in the
back seat. The grandfather and grandmother in native attire were
holding onto the once very pregnant mother; she could barely walk. The
prayer warriors gasped at the sight. She moaned with every step.
I
couldn’t help but think of the pain that innocent baby went through as
her little legs and arms were pulled off with grasping forceps, and how
her little head was crushed. This little unborn baby did not get pain
medications such as Fentanyl or Versed as her late-term mother did. The
deathscorts like vultures just looked on. “Ask God to forgive you for
killing that baby.”
Krystal,
the short and stout deathscort, blessed us with the middle finger. “Is
that all you can help women with?” we asked Kyrstal, as the family
gingerly placed her in the back seat. “A scalpel or suction hose?” The
deathscorts laughed. That little Indian descent baby was most likely
murdered because of her sex. Indian girls, just like in
China
, are considered invaluable and a scourge on the family. Boys are
considered worthy of living and providing for family. So many foreigners
come to our country, called the “melting pot”, to enjoy freedom and
liberty that their own countries do not have. In doing so, many refugees
become “Americanized” to our culture of death and immorality. It’s a
shame.
America
was once considered the spiritual giant, the land of milk and honey, a
city set on a hill, a beacon of light. Churches were the moral compass
where the pulpits were aflame with righteousness, the secret of her genius
and power.
Now,
most churches might as well hang a tavern sign off their buildings. The
evidence is clearly being played out daily when we witness so many
covenant babies being brought to be killed through abortion by professing
Christians.
A
mother pulled into the alley and we offered to show her a picture of her
baby. She came inside and viewed an approx 16 week old baby girl
auditioning for her life. She was excited and asked if we could help her
with baby supplies as she had none. She accepted our brochure and list of
resources. She would be in touch and thanked everyone and gave us a hug.
A
small Bound for Life remnant gathered on the sidewalk by our van as we
were packing up. We filled them in on the daily operations and our
ministry. They thanked us and began placing the red tape across their
mouths. We left them encouraged as we shared the story of a young mother a
while back who came inside our ultrasound van and saved her 24 week old
baby. She got off the abortion table and fought her way out to us after
seeing one man stand with us with the red tape across his mouth one spring
afternoon. She kept seeing the letters L-I-F-E and came out to us. PTL!
Approx.
122 babies killed. 7 babies saved. 3148 saves since January 2000
and
28
babies have been adopted through Small Victories!
A
movement begins with one person. The movement is only as good as the
inertia behind it. It must get out of the buildings and be taken to the
streets where battles are won. We can rebuild a culture of life and
respect for one another and authority if we are willing to lose everything
and stand for truth and justice. The battle for the preborn will never be
won in D.C., but we can still send a strong message. The victories are won
every time we show up in love and dignity outside places where little boys
and girls are being killed and families destroyed.
If
the church won’t speak the truth, we will. Enough is enough. I’ve
witnessed enough decadence and depravity and slowly watched Satan steal
our children. The very moral fiber of our nation is shriveling up. Soon
nothing will be left to keep this nation together.
It is time for the whole church to mourn the loss of truth,
righteousness, and justice concerning the unborn. I am pleading for all
Christians to weep and repent over the sickening condition of the church.
It must not be business as usual in which we pat each other on the back
about our so-called God blessed ministries.
It is time for mourning the fact that so many are willing to defend
and make excuses for their pastor’s or priest’s lack of spiritual
backbone to preach the truth about abortion. Any pastor or priest who
cannot openly and passionately condemn abortion has no right to be in the
pulpit. This is not just another issue; it’s murder. There are thousands
of unborn children dying by the hand of church members each day! We can
make all of the excuses in the world, but our actions speak louder than
words.
Proverbs
24:11-12 “Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those
staggering toward slaughter. If you say, ‘But we knew nothing about
this,’ does not He who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not He who
guards your life know it? Will He not repay each person according to what
He has done?”
Being pro-life doesn’t save babies. Acting pro-life does.
