Last week we had: Two confirmed turn-aways (where our sidewalk counselors were able to direct young women to the Women's Care Center instead of Planned Parenthood) and One confirmed very positive counseling session with a young Dad on the sidewalk. In all three of these scenarios, had there not been any prayer warriors or sidewalk counselors there God would not have been able to use us to offer compassion and give out information about alternate options.
Your peaceful, prayerful witness is needed on the sidewalk this week!

The Pill Kills Event will take place at 1p on Wednesday, 6/10/15, on the sidewalk outside of Planned Parenthood on Orin Rd. in Madison.
The birth control pill and other birth control products have a lower dose of estrogen, which increases the chance of breakthrough ovulation and thus increases the likelihood of chemical abortions occurring. Even with the lower dose, the pill still has other dangerous side effects such as blood clots, breast cancer, stroke, cervical cancer, infertility, weight gain and much more.
There is a direct relation between the use of birth control pills and abortion. The direct relations is this: Not only can the pill can cause an early abortion but also when the pill is being used and when it fails (which it often does) abortion is considered.

God forever and ever.
Amen.
