EVERY THIRD BABY DIES FROM ABORTION!!!

• That is 1.6 million babies each year!
• 4400 babies every day!!
• 1 baby every 20 seconds!

• 40% of all women who have an abortion will have 2 or more!

• Half of all abortions are performed on women who choose to use abortion as their only means of birth control.

WOMEN CAN LEGALLY ABORT THEIR UNBORN CHILD AT ANY TIME THROUGHOUT THEIR ENTIRE 9 MONTHS OF PREGNANCY--FOR ANY REASON!

According to survey data collected by abortion providers, the overwhelming majority of abortions--95%-- are done as a means of birth control or to eliminate an unwanted pregnancy. Only 1% of abortions are performed because of rape or incest; 1% because of fetal abnormalities; 3% because of mother's health problems.

FORTY (40) ABORTIONS A DAY ARE PERFORMED ON WOMEN CARRYING A CHILD 5 MONTHS OR OLDER! ( They say this procedure is rare!!)

LEGALIZING ABORTION WAS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR REDUCING ABORTION RELATE DEATHS!!

According to data from the National Center for Health Statistics, the legalization of abortion was not responsible for reducing abortion-related deaths. The discovery of antibiotics in the early 1940's did that by providing a treatment for infection. In 1972, the year before the Supreme Court legalized abortion, only 39 women died from abortion related complications. In 1977, after abortion was legal for 5 years, 21 women died.

Dr. Bernard Nathanson, co-founder of NARAL (National Abortion Rights Action League) who is now pro life, admits that his group lied about the number of women who died from illegal abortion when testifying before the U.S. Supreme Court in 1972: "We spoke of 5000-10,000 deaths a year...I confess that I knew the figures were totally false...it was a useful figure, widely accepted, so why go out of our way to correct it with honest statistics?"

CHILD ABUSE HAS INCREASED OVER 1000% SINCE ABORTION'S LEGALIZATION IN 1973!!

Rather than helping stop child abuse, legal abortion has actually contributed to its sharp rise due to the effects abortion has on women's self-esteem and ability to deal with stress--two important factors which cause child abuse.

THE AVERAGE ABORTION PROCEDURE TAKES 5-10 MINUTES! THE AVERAGE WAIT FOR ADOPTION TAKES 2- 10 YEARS!!

PRAYER FOR ABORTED BABIES

Heavenly Father, You give us the gift of freedom to love and to follow Your ways and commands. Some parents choose to abuse this freedom by destroying the gift of life which You have given to their offspring. Please forgive these people who destroy human life by aborting their unborn babies. Give these unborn children the opportunity to enjoy You for all eternity. Assist me in being one in solidarity with Your little ones by taking to the heart the words of Your Son, "whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me." (Mt. 25:40) Therefore, allow me today, Father, to adopt spiritually an unborn child and to offer my prayers, works, joys, and sufferings for that little one, so that child will be able to born and live for Your greater honor and glory. We pray this in Jesus" name, in union with the Holy Spirit one God forever and ever. Amen.
