"To clasp the hands in prayer is the beginning of an uprising against the disorder of the world." - Karl Barth

PRAY FOR AMERICATHANK GOD for His many blessings on America throughout it's history. May we then ask that AMERICA once again be a blessing TO GOD, by once again submitting to HIS will in our affairs - both personal and national - that He may truly "heal our land." (2 Chron. 7:14)

Contact your Member of Congress - Urge them to Support the Pain-Capable Unborn Protection Act which is expected to be voted on [THIS THURSDAY, JAN. 22ND, the 42nd Anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion in America! [from the Family Research Council, January 14, 2015] 
 
Dear ....,

I want to encourage you to contact your Representative and urge them to support passage of the "Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act" (H.R. 36) sponsored by Rep. Trent Franks (R-Ariz.)and Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn).This legislation is essential to stopping late abortion.

It would also help stop so-called doctors, like the now imprisoned Dr. Kermit Gosnell, who are willing to allow babies be born alive to more easily kill them if the abortion doesn't work. Tragically, this problem goes way beyond Gosnell in Philadelphia.Lila Rose's [of Live Action Ministries] undercover video in 2013 showed a doctor in the District of Columbia claiming "Let's say you went into labor, the membranes ruptured, and you delivered before we got to the termination part of the procedure here, you know? Then we would do things -- we would -- we would not help it. We wouldn't intubate."

Medical experts have testified that unborn children can feel pain as early as 20 weeks after fertilization, which is about 4 and a half months.

You can download FRC's pamphlet "Fetal Pain:Can Unborn Children Feel Pain in the Womb?"explaining more detail about the pain unborn children experience.[http://downloads.frc.org/EF/EF10H06.pdf]

The fact is that anesthesia is given during prenatal surgery, precisely because scientists have come to realize that, as Dr. Kanwaljeet Anand testified:

"The human fetus possesses the ability to experience pain from 20 weeks gestation, if not earlier and the pain perceived by the fetus is possibly more intense than that perceived by term newborns or children." This legislation is an essential step in restoring the sanctity of human life and stopping the painful killing of unborn children at 20 weeks or later.

[from LifeNews.com, Jan. 16] The United States is one of the few nations in the world that allows abortions up to the day of birth in some states.

These babies feel intense pain during abortions. In fact, one researcher, Dr. Steven Zielinski, an internal medicine physician from Oregon, testified before Congress that an unborn child could feel pain at “eight-and-a-half weeks and possibly earlier” and that a baby before birth “under the right circumstances, is capable of crying.”

As Congressman Trent Franks explains: "More than 18,000 ‘very late term’ abortions are performed every year on perfectly healthy unborn babies in America. These are innocent and defenseless children who can not only feel pain, but who can survive outside of the womb in most cases, and who are torturously killed without even basic anesthesia." "Many of them cry and scream as they die, but because it is amniotic fluid going over their vocal cords instead of air, we don’t hear them," he says.

Unborn children have a right to life and should be protected from abortion. The House will vote on this important pro-life bill on January 22.
