Pray for a conversion of heart

My friend Ellen from Thrifty & Chic sent me this article to read and we both thought it would be great to let you all know about it. Pray for the conversion of our Presidents heart on Inauguration Day by offering a Mass. Click here.

The Freedom of Choice Act

Do you know what FOCA is? I certainly did not until the day after the presidential election and it seems a lot of things came known to me after that. We get a beautiful newsletter in our bulletins about once a month on Sundays called Life Matters. I believe I've brought some things up from it before. However, I was so glad to get this one all about FOCA because it really made me even more aware of what it was all about. It showed how different it really is compared to Roe v. Wade.

For those of you who don't know FOCA is "The Freedom of Choice Act," which Senator Obama has promised Planned Parenthood would be the first thing he would sign as President is dangerous legislation and it must be exposed."

The "Freedom of Choice Act": Most Radical Abortion Legislation In U.S. History"
The Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA) would eliminate every restriction on abortion nationwide.

1. FOCA will invalidate laws to protect a woman from unsafe abortion clinics and to ensure that she is informed about abortion.
2. FOCA will require taxpayers to pay for abortions
3. FOCA will require states to allow "partial-birth" and other late-term abortions.
4. FOCA will require states to allow abortions by non-physicians
5. FOCA will bar laws protecting a right of conscientious objection to abortion
6. FOCA will deny parents an opportunity to be involved in their minor daughter's abortion decision.

If you would like to read this article from Life Matters just let me know and I'll copy and send it to you. You can also read more here. After reading all of this it really makes me sad, the unborn really need our prayers, and we need to pray that this doesn't get passed. Click below to sign the fight FOCA petition.

I hate the news

I just have to say... the news is annoying, depressing and I really don't know why I waste my time watching. If I hear the word Obama one more time I'm going to scream!

Sad with Hope

I will admit that my heart sank after realizing Barack Obama was voted as our new President. It made me sick and sad at the same time. Lots of nice posts I have read but I don't feel like saying anything nice really. Instead as I'm going through my regular reads I found this from Lerin at Beautiful Chaos, mostly written by Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director, Priests for Life. It made me smile and think there is hope. Someday (hopefully soon) the unborn will have a right to live.
