Pro-Life Examination of Conscience

Questions to help me defend life more effectively

Rev. Frank A. Pavone
National Director, Priests for Life

Am I fully convinced that every abortion, at every stage of pregnancy, is the destruction of an innocent human life, which has the same value as my life, my parents? lives, my children’s lives? Do I foster and nourish this conviction by reflecting often on the tragic loss of life occurring daily around me? Do I ever allow myself the thought that someone else’s abortion is “none of my business?” Do I sometimes think that I have “more important” things to do than to save innocent lives? Do I believe I am responsible for my preborn brothers and sisters and accountable to God for what I do to save them? Do I have the courage to remind myself of the horror of abortion by actually looking at the pictures of aborted babies?

Sing A Little Louder

by Penny Lea

The following words were spoken to me by an old man a few years ago following a message that I delivered at a large church on the east coast.

“I lived in Germany during the Nazi Holocaust. I considered myself a Christian. I attended a church since I was a small boy. We had heard the stories of what was happening to the Jews; but like most people today in this country, we tried to distance ourselves from the reality of what was really taking place. What could anyone do to stop it?

“Unless you are willing to do the ridiculous.  God will not do the miraculous.”  Mother Angelica
For most, the thought of praying in front of an abortion facility, seems ridiculous.  I know that was my first response, but over the past two years I have seen God perform miracles, because a small number of people humbled themselves, and prayed for the conversion of hearts, God saved lives.
Please take time this fall, to peacefully witness to our community in prayer in front of Community Health Care Center of Pensacola (6770 North 9th Avenue).
