Get pumped up to get active in this powerful campaign by speaker Bryan Kemper, the founder of Stand True Ministries: a Christ-centered pro-life group determined to awaken the youth of this country and share the message of life and the Gospel of Christ.  Some of Students for Life members at UWF like to wear their artistic pro-life t-shirts.  Our group also participates in the Silent Day of Solidarity started by Stand True as a peaceful and dramatic way to draw attention to the millions of unborn who are silenced from abortion.

Bryan Kemper has an amazing testimony to share about how he came to know Jesus and how this new encounter dramatically changed his life and made him devote his life to pro-life ministry.  If you want to listen to someone who has literally been there and done that and been transformed by the grace of God and is now a powerful proponent in the pro-life movement, there is no better opportunity than this Saturday!

Kick-Off starts at 6:30 and goes till 8PM

Location is:

If anyone wants to go, email me here.  The event will not have a meal, so maybe a group of Students for Life can carpool and get some pizza or something beforehand?   Also, this event is open to everyone, so if you know someone who could benefit from this BRING THEM!

This is HUGE!

From Shawn Carney, National Director 40 Days for Life:

The director of an abortion facility where a 40 Days
for Life campaign was conducted for the FIRST TIME
this spring just quit her job, thanking the 40 Days
for Life effort for helping her to get out of the
abortion industry!

This is one of TEN abortion center workers who walked
away from their jobs during this campaign alone …

… and one of 53 who have quit the abortion business
since the first coordinated 40 Days for Life campaign
in 2007.

Praise God!

This is a very sensitive situation for the former
clinic manager (who we’ve been working closely with
throughout this process), so I’m not going to identify
the person or the location. She will no doubt face
pressure when her former bosses learn the truth.

Members of the local 40 Days for Life team and
pro-lifers in the region have offered to assist this
former abortion center worker find new employment.

So please keep this courageous lady in your prayers!

Reminder: 40 Days for Life ends in 4 more days!  Do whatever you can to come out and pray for these people in the womb.  Without you – they have no voice.  Friday morning and usually Saturday morning is when abortions take place – that is the best time above all to be there.  Remember, you can save a life!  As always, be a presence of love and hope!

NOT with yelling – hatred – flame – or weapon,

but with a loving presence and 12 full hours of PRAYER!

What did this do??  What fruit came of this labor??

• 4 Lives were SAVED!  4 Lives that would not be here right now are FREE – ALIVE – and SAFE.
• The abortionist left early because there was less business.  Abortion business = death.  Less business = more LIFE!
• Mothers and fathers were exposed to a loving community and the Alpha Center phone number they can call for free help and support.

UWF Students for Life and the mothers and fathers and babies

all thank you for having the courage to pray vigil Friday.

Thank you! Gracias! Merci! Vielen Dank! etc.

Read below for a small account of the vigil we did:

On a week that began with Respect Life Sunday and two Jericho marches in Pensacola led by children, we were blessed to witness four mothers choose life yesterday.

My family and I arrived just before 6 AM yesterday morning.  Between 6:45 and 7:30 AM we witnessed four miracles.  After we finished the Rachel Rosary, a mother and a daughter left around 6:45 AM!    Then as we were singing the Divine Mercy Chaplet with UWF students for Life and other prayer participants, we had three mothers save the life of their baby!  One daughter came out of the abortion clinic crying while walking beside her mother.   As they moved past us I asked the mother and daughter if we could help them, she responded with a smile, and walked with her daughter to what appeared to be the family vehicle.  This appeared to be a turn-a-round because the abortionist had just arrived and women never walk to their cars across a busy street after an abortion.

One couple arrived with a Puerto Rican flag on the rear view mirror.  I knew one of our UWF Students for Life was from Puerto Rico so I asked her to stand at the edge of the driveway to speak to the couple when they got out of their vehicle.  She never had a chance to speak with them though.  That is because they never got out!  At the very end the Divine Mercy Chaplet, the couple backed up, and drove away.  We smiled and waved at the couple.  The man gave us a thumps up and smiled back at us!  Thank you Jesus!

Just after this, two young women walked past us.  They were actually two women my wife spoke with the prior day.  As they walked by us, my wife spoke with the young mother.  She asked her if she had an abortion.  Her answer was, “No, I couldn’t go through with it!”  The two women proceeded to walk to their car.  How amazing is your love and mercy, Lord!

Thank you, to everyone that has been praying during this 40 Days for Life.  Keep going in prayer.  God wants us to keep going!  40 Days for Life is only half way through.  We need prayer volunteers through October 31, and beyond until Pensacola become an abortion free city!  Let’s pray for the conversion of the abortionist and the staff.  Let’s pray for the end of apathy in our community.  Let us pray for the end of the culture of death.   In the name of Jesus Christ we pray, Amen!

• 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.

The truth is, everyone one of us born after 1973 could have been aborted – for.any.reason.at.all.

Lord, send laborers for your harvest. Laborers to stand up for the least of these. Amen.
