The Pro-Life Day Of Silent Solidarity - October 21, 2008

Prayer For The Unborn Child
.
Almighty God, our Father,
you who have given us life
and intended us to have it forever,
grant us your blessings.
.
Enlighten our minds to an awareness
and to a renewed conviction
that all human life is sacred
because it is created
in your image and likeness.
.
Help us to teach by word
and the example of our lives
that life occupies the first place,
that human life is precious
because it is the gift of God
whose love is infinite.
.
Give us the strength to defend human life
against every influence
or action that threatens or weakens it,
as well as the strength
to make every life more human
in all its aspects.
.
Give us the grace...
.
When the sacredness of life
before birth is attacked,
to stand up and proclaim
that no one ever has the authority
to destroy unborn life.
.
When a child is described as a burden
or is looked upon only as a means
to satisfy an emotional need,
to stand up
and insist that every child is a unique
and unrepeatable gift of God,
a gift of God
with a right to a loving
and united family.
.
When the institution of marriage
is abandoned to human selfishness
or reduced to a temporary conditional arrangement
that can easily be terminated,
to stand up and affirm
the indissolubility of the marriage bond.
.
When the value of the family is threatened
because of social and economic pressure,
to stand up and reaffirm
that the family is necessary
not only for the private good of every person,
but also for the common good of every society,
nation and state.
.
When freedom is used to dominate the weak,
to squander natural resources and energy,
to deny basic necessities to people,
to stand up and affirm
the demands of justice and social love.
.
Almighty Father,
give us courage to proclaim the supreme dignity
of all human life and to demand
that society itself give its protection.
We ask this in your name,
through the redemptive act
of your Son and in the Holy Spirit.
.
Amen.
.
(Adapted from Pope John Paul II's homily of October 7, 1979.)

Pray Thursday! Pray For Election Day.

Pray Thursday!
.
As part of the National Day of Prayer's "Pray For Election Day" campaign, we are asking Americans to meet in corporate prayer. Matthew 18:20 says: "For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them." We ask that every Thursday through November 4th, groups of two or more meet in their homes and businesses from 12:00 noon to 12:30 p.m. to pray for the November 4th presidential and general election. Please join your friends, your family, your co-workers and join me in uplifting our nation's future leaders in prayer.

From My Inbox: Code Amber Displaced by Hurricane Gustav

Subject: Code Amber Displaced by Hurricane Gustav
- We Need Your Help
From: "Code Amber"
Tuesday, September 2, 2008 9:36 PM
.
Hello Rev. Marguerite Earhart,
.
We will occasionally send you news about changes and additions to http://codeamber.org .
.
Hello,On Sunday, August 31, we were forced to evacuate our Louisiana offices and move operations to a hotel on the panhandle of Florida. Some of you may remember our evacuation from Hurricane Katrina three years ago at which time we were in Florida for over two weeks. We probably will be able to return sooner this time as the damage is not as severe. However, our office in Louisiana has lost power, telephone and high speed Internet access indefinitely which, of course, we need to operate Code Amber.
.
As a result of our displacement, we are experiencing extraordinary Code Amber operating expenses. If you are able, please help Code Amber through this time of crisis by making a small donation. Any amount you are able to contribute will help us continue to operate while we are displaced.
.
Please help us keep Code Amber operating by contributing what ever you are able. Visit http://codeamber.org/index-1.php?nl0902
to make a contribution now, please.
.
Purchases of the Amber Stick Child Id device or the Safety Net Kids Child safety DVD also help with our expenses
http://codeamber.org/idkits.html?nl0902 for the Amber Stick
http://codeamber.org/video.html?nl0902 for the Video
.
Without you, what we have accomplished thus far would not have been possible.
.
Sincerely,
Bryant Harper

Doctor Calls Near-Death Experience a 'Miracle'

Hospital Took Velma Thomas off Life Support -- Then She Woke Up
.
By GIGI STONE, TRACEY MARX and STEPHANIE DAHLE
May 24, 2008
.
Velma Thomas' heart stopped beating three times -- and her doctors thought she was dead.
.
She was taken by ambulance to a local West Virginia hospital when her heart stopped after experiencing symptoms of a heart attack. For more than 17 hours, Thomas had no measurable brain waves, according to her doctors.
.
Doctors tried everything to save Thomas' life, even inducing hypothermia in an attempt to lower her body temperature and stimulate the brain.
.
Her family said their goodbyes and left her side at the hospital to make funeral plans.
.
But after medical staff took Thomas off life support, she miraculously came back to life.
.
"I said, 'God, just show me something,'" her nephew, Daniel Pence, told ABC News.
.
"There were really no signs she had neurological functions," Kevin Eggleston, an internist, told ABC News.
.
"There was no life there," her son, Tim Thomas, told the Charleston Daily Mail. "Her skin had already started hardening, her hands and toes were curling up."
