What Can I Do to Fight Abortion?

  • Don’t succumb to hopelessness, helplessness, numbness and weariness.
  • Be informed by reading books that discuss abortion from a Christian perspective.

 

  • Be involved in the community and act for the unborn.
    • Sozo Clinic- 850-243-5800 or sozoclinic.com
      • Sozo is a Christian clinic established to protect life and raise the standard of the sanctity of human life through Christ. There are many opportunities to volunteer or even to give financially to support this local Christian pro-life ministry.
    • Florida Right to Life: Okaloosa county chapter- brady4@cox.net
      • Florida Right to Life is a grassroots organization set up to help people fight against abortion in their own community.

  • Consider sidewalk counseling outside our local abortion clinic, AMS Pensacola (6115 Village Oaks Drive, Pensacola, Florida). Visit sidewalkcounseling.com for resources and materials.

  • Take a stand politically.                 
    • Write to your representatives and urge them to fight to protect unborn life. Visit myfloridahouse.gov for addresses.
    • Vote for openly pro-life candidates only.

  • Visit National Right to Life’s website for information about current sanctity of life issues and legislation. www.nrlc.org.

  • Take courage and speak about the issue of abortion. “And let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.” Galatians 6:9.

  • Continue to pray. It is only by God’s power that our country can overcome this enormous evil.
