I have been advocating for the preborn in our region for several years. The past three years I’ve been much more driven to act than before. I only wish I could have been where I am from the beginning. After becoming aware of a group of abortion abolitionist active long before me, I have become more aware of how to engage in this holy duty.
I’ve been appealing to the City of Twin Falls, the County of Twin Falls, and the State of Idaho with urgency on the issue of abolishing abortion from our city, county, and state. At every level I’ve been welcomed with respect and kindness, for this I’m thankful. However, at every level everyone points their finger to some other jurisdiction. They say; We agree with you, but…”, “We want to do something, however…”, “The moment we do this Planned Parenthood will sue.”, “The Supreme Court this, the Supreme Court that…”
I’m sure the reader here will know this, but in the event you don’t, babies in the womb are being murdered in the city of Twin Falls. The number of the most vulnerable preborn children has reached jaw dropping heights. Since 2008, shortly after Planned Parenthood opened in Twin Falls, with the majority Republican law makers, 2,114 babies have been murdered… I’m not talking about in Boise, I’m not talking about in Salt Lake City, I’m not talking about in California, I’m talking about in Twin Falls, Idaho.
There is no way to overlook this. This is happening in our city on our watch.
Join me, it’s time to act now!
No longer – no more!
If your God cannot move you to act upon their behalf, then your god is too small.
If your God does not wake you at night with the bloodguilt of these children, then your conscience is seared and your god is too small.
If your God moves you to preserve the party at the expense of life, then your god is too small.
If your God has convinced you that Planned Parenthood s too powerful, then your god is too small.
If your god is sure the Supreme Court of the United States will not allow you to protect our most vulnerable neighbors, then your god is too small.
If your God won’t move you to act now on their behalf, then your god is pitiful and helpless and should be avoided at all costs.
I’m writing today to invite you to turn your eyes upon the Almighty God, fear men no longer. Rise up as men and women of God.
What kind of people are we anyway?
The kind who sits in the corner with our eyes closed, our ears plugged, and our heads in the sand while giving permission for a tyrant to murder our children? Or are we the kind of people who will stand up and demand; “No more, no longer!” will we sit by and do nothing.
The mayor of Twin Falls intends to issue a proclamation on Monday, February 24 at 5pm requesting state legislators to act immediately on a bill that would abolish abortion this year in Idaho. Would you consider attending that meeting on February 24 as a voice of agreement with the mayor? This is no small thing this mayor is willing to do. Don’t let her speak or stand alone. State legislators have had a bill ready for action since mid January, almost a full month now. House Bill 361 (the Abortion Human Rights Act) is in the House Ways and Means Committee.
(UPDATED: 02/19/2020 – at this point the proclamation may not include an address to state legislators or reference HB361)
