Friends,
Millions of Americans watched in utter shock and horror as pro-abortion fanatics celebrated the passage of New York’s evil “abortion until birth” law.
As America witnessed those demonic celebrations, the scales fell from the eyes of the nation and people from all walks of life and every political persuasion saw how forty-six years of legalized abortion-on-demand was destroying the soul of America.
More importantly, they became angry and are ready to protect unborn children.
If ever there was a moment to rally men and women of good will into the fight against abortion ... THIS IS IT!!! Never was Priests for Life’s work more important than it will be over the next three months. Without question this is your best chance to help win victory over abortion. And because it is I urge you to give Priests for Life’s “90-Day Campaign for Life” your wholehearted support. |  |
From now until Pentecost Sunday it’s vital that you partner with Priests for Life to recruit the millions of Americans who are ready to join us on the front lines of the battle to end abortion.
What I need from you specifically are three actions:
- PRAYERS. This is very important. Our struggle to end the injustice of abortion is spiritual warfare. So I’m relying on you to use this time of Lent to “pray without ceasing” for an end to legalized abortion in America.
- INVOLVEMENT. While we work for an end to abortion nationwide, it’s important that you do what you can to make your local community abortion-free.
- FINANCIAL SUPPORT. Today I’m asking you to be more generous than you think you can be with your donation. I’m asking you to consider doing this because Priests for Life has to raise $1.2 million to fund this all-out effort to turn America’s pent-up outrage over the killing of full-term babies into concrete action that will bring an end to abortion. This work includes:
- Expanding our broadcasting on SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Youtube. As more and more Americans turn to these forums for their news and information, it’s critical Priests for Life be there telling them the truth about abortion and how it’s destroying the nation.
Right now Priests for Life reaches some 600,000 people EVERY DAY across all social media platforms.Over the next 90 days we have an opportunity to INCREASE our viewership and bring literally MILLIONS of Americans into the pro-life movement.
- Producing new programs for our “Defending Life” series that airs over EWTN. Tens of millions of people have access to EWTN over their cable and satellite TV providers. These viewers are good people. Their hearts are in the right place when it comes to fighting abortion. Our new programs will motivate them to get out of their living rooms and join us on the front lines of the battle to end abortion.
- Providing pro-life activists the materials they need to recruit members of their local community into the fight against abortion. Priests for Life is a constant source of educational materials for the pro-life movement. We print up and ship out booklets, pamphlets, documents, videos and more for pro-lifers to use.
- Sending our priests and Pastoral Associates on the road to preach the Gospel of Life and win uncommitted Americans over to the side of life. As I said, America is primed for a pro-life revolution! And Priests for Life’s dynamic team will be out in full force to show countless numbers of men and women how they can turn their pent up outrage over the drive to legalize infanticide into CONCRETE ACTION that will protect the youngest members of our human family from being killed in abortion. Of particular importance will be the work of three key members of our team:
Evangelist Alveda King: Alveda heads up Priests for Life’s Civil Rights for the Unborn project and works tirelessly to open the eyes of African-Americans to the fact that abortion is literally destroying the African-American community. This is by design. It’s eugenics pure and simple. And Alveda is winning Black America over to the side of life.
Bryan Kemper: Bryan heads up Priests for Life’s “Stand True” Youth Outreach ministry. Like Alveda, Bryan has a dogged determination to end abortion in our lifetime. Recognizing the critical need the pro-life movement has for the energy and enthusiasm of young people, Bryan attends venues where young people gather and recruits them into the fight.
Janet Morana: Janet is Priests for Life’s Executive Director and is working hard on several fronts to recruit more Americans into the fight. Not only is she the co-host of “The Catholic View for Women” on EWTN, she is also the co-founder (along with Georgette Forney of Anglicans for Life) of the “Silent No More Awareness Campaign”. Using both those forums, as well as the books she has authored, Janet is winning people into the movement and increasing our numbers and our clout with lawmakers.
- Working with other pro-life groups and organizations to shut down abortion mills! Last year alone Priests for Life’s encouragement helped pro-life activists shut down 40 abortion mills. This continued an ongoing trend. In fact, there are 159 fewer abortion death mills today than there were in 2012.
And that’s just the work Priests for Life will be doing over these next three months to recruit countless numbers of people into the pro-life movement.
Another project we’ll be ramping up throughout our “90 Day Campaign for Life” is our work with lawmakers at both the national and the state level. This is crucial because it wasn’t just ordinary, hard-working moms and dads who were appalled to see legislators celebrate the killing of babies.
Many fence-sitting lawmakers were equally outraged and are now willing to work with their pro-life colleagues.
Priests for Life is going to equip the pro-life legislators and challenge the pro-abortion ones by sending them medically accurate illustrations of exactly what takes place in the most common late term abortion procedures. Most lawmakers have no idea what abortionists do to babies during these horrific procedures. It’s barbaric.
So Priests for Life is showing them in pictures. This way no one can claim ignorance when it comes to voting for bills that would allow abortionists to rip healthy, viable babies limb from limb in a late-term abortion.
Again, that’s just one more project Priests for Life is taking on over these next ninety days.
It’s a lot of work, to be sure.
But as I noted earlier, we’ve got to strike while the iron is hot.
When you combine the sheer evil Americans saw on the faces of those New York lawmakers with the impassioned manner in which President Trump deplored their vile “abortion until the moment of birth” law, people are primed and ready to join us in our fight to end America’s abortion holocaust.
All of the polling data shows this to be true.
One recent poll shows how strongly America is with us right now. According to the survey:
- 80% of Americans OPPOSE abortion the day before a child is born.
- 79% OPPOSE third-trimester abortions.
- 80% say babies that survive abortions should be cared for and kept alive.
Even more importantly is the fact that self-proclaimed “pro-choice” Americans agree with us:
- 68% of these people OPPOSE abortion the day before a child is born.
- 66% of them OPPOSE third trimester or late-term abortions.
- And 77% of them support the right to life for children who survive an abortion.
Keep in mind, that survey was taken AFTER the Democrat-dominated New York Assembly voted to give abortionists the power to kill a full-term healthy baby girl as she was being born and AFTER Virginia’s Democrat Governor Ralph Northam shamelessly defended INFANCTICIDE during a radio interview.
So we’re pushing against an open door here. We don’t have to do any real convincing.
Our fellow Americans are already convinced that late-term abortion is wrong. All we have to do now is be out there giving these good people a concrete way to turn their outrage into action.
Which is precisely what Priests for Life will be doing throughout our $1.2 million “90 Day Campaign for Life.”
Using the donation you give today – along with the other dollars you’ll be sending throughout our “90-Day Campaign for Life” – Priests for Life is going to tap into America’s outrage and bring us closer to victory over abortion.
But this pro-life window of opportunity won’t stay open long.
Which is why I’ve sent you this urgent letter and asking for your immediate help today ... and your promise to support Priests for Life’s “90 Day Campaign for Life” as best you can from now until it ends on Pentecost Sunday. Never forget:
Abortion corrupts our entire society – the economy, health care, foreign policy, the War on Terror, immigration ... everything!
That reality is on full display. Pro-abortion fanatics are imposing both late-term abortion and infanticide on the nation. The vast majority of Americans OPPOSE them. And it falls to us – the Priests for Life family … the recognized face and voice of the pro-life movement – to ACT NOW and bring them into the fight to end legalized abortion-on-demand in America.
As you prayerfully consider how God is calling you to help, don’t be afraid to be more generous than you think you can be. Remember: God is never outdone in generosity. He knows the sacrifices you are making for His innocent children and He will bless you a hundred fold.
On behalf of the youngest members of our human family, thank you for your immediate and generous reply. I will remember you at every Mass I offer during this important 90-day period; as will the other priests of Priests for Life. Thank you again and may God bless you.
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Fr. Frank Pavone
National Director, Priests for Life
P.S. I meant to remind you of this in my letter but didn’t. In spite of the fact that many at the Vatican – as well as Bishops around the world and here in the U.S. – have strongly encouraged our Priests for Life ministry, we receive no funds from any official Church entity ... neither from Rome nor here in the United States.
Every penny we receive comes from individuals just like you: Hard-working, dedicated pro-life champions. Which is why the success of our 90-Day Campaign for LIFE depends entirely on you and the Priests for Life family. It will take a minimum of $1.2 million to fund all the work I listed for you in this letter. That’s why I’m hoping you’ll take a moment RIGHT NOW to make as large a donation to Priests for Life as you can ... and why I’m counting on you to continue to supply us with financial help from now until Pentecost Sunday.
