Dear Friend,
I need your immediate and generous response ... and I need it right now.
Two of America’s largest pro-abortion groups are spending $10,000,000 each to influence the November elections at all levels of government. Those two groups are Planned Parenthood and NARAL.
On top of that, Hollywood elitists and the financiers of the “global warming/population control” crowd – individuals like Bill Gates, Ted Turner, Warren Buffet and George Soros – are giving tens of millions of dollars to extremist pro-abortion groups.
Their goal is to keep abortion-on-demand the law of the land because they know, as my mentor the late John Cardinal O’Connor once said, that if something is legal, people tend to think it’s moral.
In truth, that’s the main reason why Priests for Life works so hard to educate voters.
But right now our efforts to oppose Planned Parenthood and NARAL and the rest of the abortion cabal are suffering because contributions to Priests for Life
in the past few months have been far lower than projected.
Please donate to help make up the deficit and keep our pro-life work going forward!
The slumping economy is a big reason for this I know. Gas prices are at an all-time high. This has caused food costs to increase sharply. Over the past six years the dollar has lost 40% of its value. The stock market has dropped around 20% since October 2007. Companies continue to lay off workers and the country is on the verge of a recession if it’s not already in one.
So while the agents of death are flush with money and spending tens of millions of dollars to keep the cold-blooded killing of innocent babies legal, the combination of a slow economy and a drop in contributions threatens to bring our efforts to a screeching halt!
This couldn’t come at a worse time for our movement or for the unborn we serve. On Labor Day, the fight for America’s pro-life future began in earnest. That’s why our opponents are pumping so much money into the election. They know the impact it will have on the future of America for generations to come.
Now I know we cannot match the pro-abortion forces dollar for dollar.
But we are more than a match for them when it comes to promoting the truth about the sanctity and dignity of all innocent human life! Of this much I am absolutely certain:
If you will entrust Priests for Life with a much-needed “end of summer” contribution, we will use your dollars to win victories for the unborn!
So please act now … while you’re reading this letter. Your immediate help is needed so we can refute the lies of the pro-abortion apologists and bring people over to the side of life!
No other pro-life organization is as equipped to do this work as is Priests for Life. We reach literally tens of millions of people through our programs and take advantage of all forms of media – TV, radio, Internet, print. And when you consider the high stakes in play this election – in particular the make-up of the Supreme Court – I know you’ll do all you can to help.
It will take a minimum of two million dollars to fully fund all of our work from now until Election Day. But as daunting as that amount sounds, it pales in comparison with the vast sums the pro-abortion industry has. In fact, our budget is a mere 10% of what Planned Parenthood and NARAL will spend over the next two months.
So please give. Give as generously as you can. Give as Blessed Mother Teresa asks:
“We remind ourselves that love means to be willing to give until it hurts.”
God has called you to fulfill one of the most critical and important missions in the fight to end abortion … namely the task of funding the fight.
Never was your financial support needed more than it is right now!
I’ll close here with my heartfelt thanks to you for your immediate and generous response. And to demonstrate the depth of my gratitude, I will remember you at each Mass that I offer; and not only me but also the other priests here at Priests for Life. May God bless you … and may He bless us as we go forth to do battle against the powers of hell.
Sincerely yours in Christ,
