It’s still sinking in. Sister Toldjah, my co-worker, said it best.
“I am literally shaking, literally in tears. Never thought this would happen in my lifetime.”
I didn’t either. I was seven when I did. Roe v. WadeThe law was passed. Even at that tender age, my limited understanding allowed me to see that the world was in serious trouble. To see how many things have changed, I’ve had 48 years. We have gone from “safe and legal,” with restrictions after 20 weeks, to Gosnell, harvesting baby parts, and infanticide.
As many other Americans, I was aware of that RoeHad to go. The escalating death, 63 million babies ripped from the womb, the fallacies and falsehoods on what constitutes life, our tax dollars going to the merchants of death Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA), increased numbers in child abuse and child trafficking… I could go on and on about how that one Roedecision to tear at the fabric and nation.
Friday, June 24, 2022, in a 6-3 Supreme Court decision on Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, Roe v. Wade It has been finally overturned. (6-3 to maintain the Mississippi law and 5-4 for Roe. Chief Justice Roberts did not agree with the Court’s decision regarding the wider question of whether or not the Constitution protected abortion.
Celebrations took place outside of the U.S. Supreme Court following the ruling in Roe v. Wade.

It is impossible to overlook the sacrifices, prayers, sweat and tears that were made in order for this event to happen.
Death spiraled into RoeIt is no longer in place. Life now has precedence.
In response to the SCOTUS decision, I am hearing directly from several clinic sources from Louisiana, Kentucky and Texas. Planned Parenthood in Arkansas has also stopped the abortions.

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 Following the SCOTUS ruling overturning Roe v. Wade, Missouri has just become the first in the country to effectively end abortion with our AG opinion signed moments ago. This historic moment is important for protecting the dignity of life. pic.twitter.com/Jphy72R4rq

Friday, June 24, 2022 is the first day of a Post-Election period.Roe world. All those who have stood up for Life and supported it should feel joy and relief and take victory laps. But once that is done, we have to continue to protect Life on all its fronts, because the death merchants and their allies will push back… and it won’t be pretty.
Now? The pro-lifers are determined to end illegal abortion. Our efforts to support pro-life centres with money and our time are intensified. The work isn’t close to done

This is how you can make sure they don’t ruin this enormous victory.
Keep life safe for the organizations and people who continue to protect it.
My thoughts turn to the resource centers for pro-life, and those who help with pregnancy, whom I consider constantly at risk, especially since the release of the DobbsDraft opinion due May
Pro-life activist Lila Rose tweeted about “A Night of Rage.”
BREAKING: Pro-abortion groups are pledging violence the night of Dobbs’ decision. The Department of Homeland Security communicates with Catholic Churches.

This is my appeal to all pro-freedom security agencies in the country. They could be offered protection services. What about law-abiding, well-trained veterans? A community of well-trained gunowners? It won’t be one Night of Rage. Trust me, the Left will keep trying to follow in the footsteps of pro-life movements and their organizations. Let’s find a way to protect these important institutions because unexpected pregnancies and tragic circumstances that resulted in these abortion decisions in the first place are not going away. It is more important than ever to protect the Right to Life and these Organizations.
Donate your Time, Talent and Treasure to Support Us
Whether it’s donating to a Life center or volunteering at one, you can continue to pray for and support Life before every PPFA in the country. Although many PPFA centers have closed (Hallelujah), there are still many, particularly in the blue states of California. The hostile Franchise Tax Boards are likely to try and end funding for these Life centers. They need financial support now more than ever.
Petitions to your local legislature for support of life and restriction of death
That was the way that the wall of Roemany red states. The bastions for progressive democracy are home to pro-life voters. GovernanceIt is not only ignorant that abortion is a sacrament. We need to speak up. In California this past April, the lawmakers trying to push through AB 2223, the “Infanticide Bill,” were confronted with a huge protest by pro-life organizations and pro-life citizens, pushing the issue to the forefront, and forcing the lawmakers drafting this egregious piece of legislation to amend the bill. However, activists and citizens still work to block its passage. This requires people who are committed to Life to speak out and not just assume the job is over.
Foster and Adopt
It cannot be overemphasized. Many children and babies in the country need love, support, and shaping in loving homes. We best counter the Left’s accusation that we care about the baby until it’s born by promoting and participating in seeing mothers and children supported at every stage of Life.
