In the spring of 1970 my heart became burdened about abortion. I had received some information from Knights of Columbus and what I saw broke me into tears. After all this time God has reminded me of something that is very important. At that time the law in Missouri was abortion could only be done if the life of the Mother was in danger. In this information sent to me I learned that there was an organization called the ACLU who would soon be coming up against the US Senate to legalize abortion.
In the information I got from Knights of Columbus it said that if every "district" in the United States had only 500 signatures on a legal petition then they could win the fight against this group who wanted abortion on demand. I went to a local lawyer and he was pro-life so he gladly drew up a petition for me costing only $5.00. They were placed inside Churches and I went door to door for signatures. A week later I went to pick up the petitions from Churches. There was a total of eleven signatures!! Disappointment could not have covered what I was feeling at that time. The pastor of one Church was embarrassed and told me that he was sorry, but people were comfortable with the present law in Missouri. How did my effort turn out going door to door? I got two signatures. One woman told me that her son had turned out to be a homosexual and she wished he had never been born!
What if every Church in the United States would sign this petition? It would over turn Roe vs Wade, but you know I'm wondering if there would be anymore signatures today than back then? Of course, we know that abortion on demand was legalized on January 22, 1973. There are lots of petitions online, every time you see one please take the time to sign it.
Thank you and May God stop the insanity of killing unborn human beings!
