WHY CAN'T WE LOVE THEM BOTH by Dr. and Mrs. J.C. Willke CHAPTER 44 WHAT TO DO "When the time comes, as it surely will, when we face that awesome moment, the final judgment, I've often thought, as Fulton Sheen wrote, that it is a terrible moment of loneliness. You have no advocates, you are there alone standing before God "" and a terror will rip your soul like nothing you can imagine. But I really think that those in the pro-life movement will not be alone. I think there'll be a chorus of voices that have never been heard in this world but are heard beautifully and clearly in the next world "" and they will plead for everyone who has been in this movement. They will say to God, "˜Spare him, because he loved us," "" and God will look at you and say not, "˜Did you succeed?' but "˜Did you try?'" Congressman Henry Hyde Therefore The most important thing that you can do is to become personally involved.

Unless you do, nothing will change.

Educate First yourself, then others Volunteer To help in your local pro-life group or pregnancy help center.

Lobby Your elected officials Write Those who support Planned Parenthood and other pro-abortion and anti-family groups. Write your newspapers, your radio and TV stations.

Vote Nothing will change unless you do. Remember that any candidate for public office who permits, supports or wants you to pay for the direct killing of almost every third baby conceived in America "" that candidate is simply disqualified from holding public office.

Support Your stewardship is vital. This movement is mostly volunteer, but as this controversy becomes more intense, we will need heavier and heavier financial support. Henry Hyde is clearly also speaking of such tangible support.

Pray P ray as if everything depends upon your prayers , for it just might be so. Pray that God will stay His hand. Do we, will we, as a nation , deserve His help and His mercy ? "The care of human life and happiness, and not their destruction, is the first and only legitimate object of good government." Thomas Jefferson "To Republican Citizens of Wash. County Maryland." March 31, 1809
