March for Life information meeting!

Category : Events, General Pro-Life

Interested in attending

the 2010 March for Life in Washington D.C. this January?

Come to tomorrow’s planning meeting to find out more details!

(Thursday) 8:30AM in Commons room 265


This historical march began in 1974 with the grassroot efforts of 20,000 Americans to protest the unconstitutional ruling of Roe v. Wade Supreme Court case, which legalized abortion through all nine months of gestation. Since 1974, the March for Life has steadily grown by the tens of thousands – last year estimating 400,000+ pro-lifers.

How is legalized abortion unconstitutional?

Ask any law expert:  pro or anti-abortion, they will all tell you that the Supreme Court has no Constitutional power to create a new law.  Supreme Court judges only have the power to assess if a law is constitutional.  In Roe v. Wade, abortion became legalized because the judges in favor said the right to an abortion is listed within the “penumbras of the Constitution.”  They also listed that the right to abortion is also justified by the right to privacy.

On the contrary, the right to privacy is a law to protect citizens from unwarranted invasions of homes etc. – not to be able to privately go to a clinic and have a doctor kill your child.  In fact, if the right to privacy can be so liberally applied as to allow the killing of one’s child in a clinic, it can even moreso justify child abuse and killing of others within the home.

Contrary to the “allusions” to a right to abortion in the Constituion, the right to life is clearly stated throughout the Constitution:

  • “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness”.
  • “secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity“. (Posterity = children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, etc. – human beings yet to be born who deserve the blessings we’ve received.)

Breast Cancer Event Wrap up

Category : Events, News

Wow!  This event was fun, enlightening, and really got UWF student attention!

We had a HUGE screen in the center of the Great Hall of the Commons playing videos and a powerpoint with information on breast cancer risk prevention; a LONG table filled with free pink ribbons and goodie bags.  We had a tri-fold that explained the facts about estrogen and breast cancer and had at least 5 group members assisting students at all times.  We closed up the event with a performance by the UWF Dance team and an inspiring testimony by UWF volley ball coach Melissa Wolter about her experience with breast cancer!

In addition, we received countless compliments from students, UWF SGA, UWF Counseling – and in general, people were REALLY surprised about the breast cancer prevention information we offered!  For all members who supported this event, UWF says “Thank you for giving us the truth and showing us ways we can help protect our health.”

For those who could not attend, here is some of the information we offered:

  • The World Health Organization has declared Estrogen as a Group 1 carcinogen (2005).  That means that it is known to be carcinogenic – not plausibly or possibly – but KNOWN to be carcinogenic to humans.

(Resources:  Here is the list of Group 1 Carcinogens listed on the American Cancer Society’s website.)

**  Note that this same organization (along with Susan G. Komen) does NOT disperse this information to the wide population of young women who are exposing themselves to this carcinogen for years- increasing their risk of breast cancer.

***UWF Students for Life considers this politically correct hiding of vital information UNACCEPTABLE and hosted this event to do what is right in spreading this important information.

  • Young women expose themselves to increased amounts of carcinogenic estrogen by taking hormonal contraceptives (Depo Provera, the pill, Norplant, IUD, etc.)

  • Young women also expose themselves to increased amounts of carcinogenic estrogen via abortion.  To understand the abortion breast cancer link better- watch the following video:

  • YouTube Preview Image

Please help spread the word about the Estrogen-Connection to breast cancer.  This information can help save many lives.  Both hormonal contraception, hormonal therapy, and abortion increase a woman’s risk of breast cancer.  Also, put pressure on all cancer organizations to stop being politically correct and start inform women of ALL their risk factors.

Breast Cancer Prevention Event TOMORROW!

AN OUNCE OF “PREVENTION” IS WORTH

A POUND OF “CURE”

Ever wonder why breast cancer awareness has become such a big topic today? Because in the past 30 years, breast cancer rates have tripled.  Whereas breast cancer used to be a grandmother’s disease, now it has expanded to women in their 20′s and 30′s.

Why is this happening? Overwhelming scientific studies show that both abortion and hormonal contraception increase a woman’s risk of breast cancer.  They both increase  a woman’s exposure to carcinogenic estrogen.  These two risk factors for breast cancer make for an even greater risk when used by women who have never had children before because their breast cells are immature and more susceptible to cancerous mutation.

Monday 10AM-1PM

in the Commons Great Hall:

UWF students for Life is hosting a Breast Cancer Prevention event.  We will have important information on how YOU can REDUCE your risk of breast cancer, a video testimony by a young woman currently fighting breast cancer, a performance by the UWF dance team, free gift bags, and much much more!  Men and women alike are welcome as the topic of breast cancer prevention concerns both women and the men in their lives.

Friday and Saturday: Being a hero and having fun!

Category : Events, General Pro-Life

Friday: 7AM – 7PM all members of UWF Students for Life are inspired to pray in front of the 9th Avenue abortion clinic.

  • We are inspired because we know we  have been spared from abortion.  We are inspired because we are people of justice, peace, and truth.  We are inspired because we know that if we don’t stand up for the unborn or reach out to the mothers and fathers in crisis, who will?
  • Beginning at 7AM, women will drive into the abortion clinic fearing abuse, giving into pressure and manipulation, forced to abort by their parents, feeling unworthy to be a parent, feeling many things…   but all of them lost, in need of your prayer.

Love them, pray for them, encourage them to choose life with your heroic presence.

Many of these women make this trip from Mississippi and Alabama.  If these women have traveled all this way in fear and pain, can we who live but minutes away muster the courage to show these women that we care – that they don’t have to do this – that abortion doesn’t have to be their fate.

Again, if we don’t answer the call to be heroic for these mothers and their children, who will?


Saturday = FUN DAY!

From 5-10PM, we invite you to come have some fun with us at the St. Rose of Lima fall festival in Milton.

  • We will share shifts covering a pro-life table with tons of balloons for the kids and pro-life information for countless people in the panhandle!  While there, we will get the chance to have fun on the fair rides, eating international food, watch live shows, shop at the vendors all while sharing shifts at the pro-life booth!  This will be a LOT of fun – so please R.S.V.P. by Saturday noon-time by responding to this email.  Details of where we will meet will be emailed back.  Carpooling is available- but you need to let us know in your email response.  Hope to see you there!

Got the guts to stand up for life?

This Friday, UWF Students for Life members will have the opportunity to be the voice for the voiceless!

A Fetus at 10 Weeks

All members are encouraged to donate one hour (or more) this Friday to pray for the unborn, the mothers, and all supporters of abortion – in front of the abortion clinic on 9th Avenue. With your loving, peaceful, prayerful presence, you can:

  • Save a child’s life

  • Witness to the community that abortion takes place in Pensacola and that prayer is needed to end it

  • Witness to all people that life is sacred

  • Experience the reality of abortion from the outside

Please respond to this email by Thursday to reserve your shift hour (ANY TIME BETWEEN 7AM-7PM).  Each hour will be covered by a minimum of 2 people, so bring a friend(s)!!!  UWF Students for Life will ensure that no one will pray at the vigil alone.  Those who come to the vigil at 7AM will enjoy free coffee and those who attend the 6PM vigil hour will go to a Cici’s pizza social afterward to celebrate the day and share stories.

***The first 4 people to reserve their spot to attend the 6PM vigil will receive a free Cici’s pizza dinner!***

40 Days for Life Door-to-Door Challenge

YouTube Preview Image

  • How many people do you think realize that every year 1.3 million innocent Americans are violently murdered by abortion?
  • How many people know that every day alone, 3,500+ American babies lose their inalienable Creator-given right to life?
  • How many people in Pensacola know that approximately 40 innocent children are killed in our own neighborhood every week?

UWF Students for Life is challenging YOU to give Pensacola the power of knowledge!

When we’ll meet up: Saturday September 25th at 9:15AM

Where: Commons Parking Lot (front of the Commons)

Details: We’re carpooling from the Commons no later than 9:20AM to a meeting place with other Pensacola young adults.  We will receive flier-type materials to hand out door-to-door, and also receive basic information on what to say.  We’ll slit up in pairs for the door-to-door part and then celebrate our efforts and share fellowship at Cici’s pizza.  We should be back at UWF at 1:15PM.
