“Respecting the dignity of the human person at all stages.” Winter

From the Director

We cannot believe how quickly another year has passed!

As we enter into Advent and prepare for Christ’s birth, let us be mindful of the preciousness of life! To think that God became man, an embryo even, just boggles the mind! We at Lake County Right to Life strive to keep the sanctity of human life in the forefront of our message and will continue to do so until abortion is gone for good! Yes, gone for good! That day will come folks, there is no doubt about that and we must persevere in cooperating with God’s will to end the slaughter of today’s innocents!

Looking back at 2013, we have a lot to be grateful for and have been very busy in the pro-life movement! This past year involved our annual Justice March for Preborn Children, revamping and publishing literature, quarterly newsletter mailings, weekly e-blasts, two 40 Days for Life Campaigns, Maafa 21 screening, two teen talks, our second annual essay contest, our first annual Teen Night Done Right, Family Planning Association workshop, collection and delivery of 100’s of baby blankets, collection and delivery of toiletry items for moms who choose life at the abortion mills in Cleveland, the Fest, Painesville Party in the Park, Unity in the Community event, distribution of 180 pro-life t-shirts, distribution of 200 Maafa 21 DVDs and a talk at Conneaut’s Patriot Day event. We provided materials for various local pro-life groups to have for their pro-life events as well! We keep our Facebook page up to date with the most current pro-life news and happenings. We also finished a mailing to our local guidance counselors offering them free Help is Available flyers for their offices (90 flyers have been ordered so far). All of these things are made possible by your faithful financial and prayerful support! So as this year comes to a close, I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for all you have done for us and for LIFE!

May God bless you and yours and may the love of the newborn Christ child fill your hearts with joy and peace!
