§ What is Pro-Life Unity?

To achieve Pro-Life Unity we will establish standards that we all agree upon, and efforts that we all regularly participate in. By working together we can challenge the culture of death and the apathy which is pervasive in our society.

§ Action Code

Last week was a powerful reminder that God is at work & that we must keep going!  The Lord is raising up many new sidewalk counselors and prayer warriors at the mills here in GA, and last week saw three babies saved and two candle-light Mothers Day Vigils.  Below are 3 accounts shared by a sidewalk counselor and the 2 Mothers Day vigil coordinators (slightly edited for length). 

Jackie is a new sidewalk counselor who led a group in sidewalk counseling out at West Wieuca Saturday, May 2nd.  Jackie, by the way, likes to refer to herself as “the Black lady” because the Lord stirred her heart at a panel discussion at GA Tech where she heard Jenny Hodges and Catherine Davis sound the call for more black sidewalk counselors & activists.  Jackie’s on fire for the babies & moms - please keep her in your prayers.  Her account of Sat, May 2nd is also included below.  By the way, two other black ladies have heard the Lord’s call uponn their heart and have been going out to Gov Ridge for a while now - we desperately need them as 90-95% of the moms going in are black.

Some additional exciting news is that Lisa E. of Church of the Apostles in Atlanta, a newly trained sidewalk counselor, has been taking out ladies from her Bible Study once or twice a week to West Wieuca to train them in sidewalk counseling and prayer support.  Please keep Lisa and her growing group in your prayers.
At the regular “2nd shift” Friday vigil with Nancy at West Wieuca, the group is now up to about 6.
Many new prayer warriors and potential sidewalk counselors continue to come out to Governors Ridge thanks to Sarah’s & Griselle’s recruitment efforts.
Praise God for how He is bringing all these new people into the effort!

Saturday, May 2nd at West Wieuca, by Jackie:
“A young lady came over to us and said she was not going to abort. Some from our group took her to breakfast, while I stayed. There was another young lady who didn’t abort because she didn’t have the money. I told her that there were centers that would help her in carrying her baby to term & she wrote down the information ~ she said she would keep her child if she had some help. I pray that she did call the center.”

Friday, May 8th at West Wieuca, by Ron Flagg:

Dear Friends in Christ,
Jesus saved a baby this morning at W. Weiuca at about 6:45am.  Six of us were there on the sidewalk in prayer and our hearts overflowed with joy when a couple stopped at the exit and rolled down their window to tell us they had changed their minds.  There were many tears flowing and we sensed the mom was anxious to leave the premises, so we were only able to get her name, Terry, and no other (i.e. contact) information.  Please pray (1) in praise and thanksgiving, and (2) for issues that Terry is or will be dealing with.  I want to also thank Jackie and RuthAnn for joining us on the sidewalk with their powerful prayers. 
We had 3 Protestants and 3 Catholics on the sidewalk united in prayer and I believe Jesus was most pleased to see Christians together in prayer against the culture of death. 
Next week we will go back to our normal schedule, which means arriving at 6:30 to 6:45am.  We invite/encourage those who were unable to be there today to join us in the future in our ministry saving Jesus’ babies.
For Life (always!)
Ron

Saturday, May 9th at Governors Ridge, Marietta, by Sarah (aka “Sarita”):

Dear brothers and sisters,
Today was really beautiful at Governor’s Ridge!  Prayer warriors began arriving shortly after 5am, and by the time everyone was in place, there were 128 of us praying and holding lit candles, up and down the sidewalk.  At one point the count reached 135!
Only 7 women had abortions today, which is very low, compared to 12 or 13 the last few Saturdays, and especially compared to the 20-30 that were common every Saturday, before the economy took a nosedive.
An added blessing was the presence of two priests: Father Jaime Molina, from St. Thomas the Apostle and Father Manuel Rivas, from Holy Family.  English-speaking participants in the vigil hailed from various parishes, and there were also representatives from Students for Life at Georgia Tech.  A huge delegation of Hispanic parishioners came from St. Thomas the Apostle, and three Brazilian parishioners arrived from Holy Family.  The two priests led us in rosaries and in the Litany of Loreto.  As women who appeared to be patients would arrive at the entrance to the complex, we would offer them a long-stemmed, cream-colored rose and literature that we hoped would encourage them not to have an abortion.
When the prayers ended, the Hispanics burst into song, praising God with many joyful choruses in Spanish.
The doctor finished early and left by 9:30am, after which his employees also drove away.  As our prayer warriors were preparing to go home, many expressed gratitude for having had the opportunity to participate in this prayer experience.
Thank you to everyone who was unable to attend physically but who, through your prayers, was with us in spirit.  Your prayers were very much felt and appreciated, and surely helped to keep expectant mothers away from this place of death, on the eve of the day all mothers should be celebrating Life:  Mother’s Day.
In Christ for Life….........Sarita
