Lord God, I thank you today for the gift of my life
And for the lives of all my brothers and sisters.
I know there is nothing that destroys more life than abortion,
Yet I rejoice that you have conquered death by the Resurrection of Your Son.
I am ready to do my part in ending abortion.
Today I commit myself
Never to be silent,
Never to be passive,
Never to be forgetful of the unborn.
I commit myself to be active in the Pro-Life movement,
And never to stop defending life
Until all my brothers and sisters are protected,
And our nation once again becomes
A nation with liberty and justice
Not just for some, but for all,
Through Christ our Lord. Amen!

Long Time No Write.....
It has been awhile and I think I'm going to start back up, most likely on the election but we'll see....
I am a Cafeteria Catholic myself by choice of course because of my own convictions,conscience, and prayer. I do attend mass every week and I pray alot. I am only a cafeteria Catholic because I don't see how using condoms is evil, I don't have a problem with women priests, married priests, and I don't believe divorce is always a sin since I know people who have left abused spouses. I don't believe for better or worse means you have to stay with your husband when he tries to pound you physically to pieces or when he tries to abuse your children. Its hard for people to understand my view on this when they grew up with families where such conflicts never took place.Maybe I am just too accepting to prone to Western thing, but what I do know is that I do love Jesus with all of my heart, he's got me through hard times in my life, and whether or not I agree with the Church I will never abandon God and my faith and relationship with Christ. The world does need more Christ. And the number one solution to end abortion is not to have sex before your married or to use the lesser of two evils contraception. I believe if people want to abort their babies then atleast they should put a condom on so they don't kill any babies.Most people I know who have had abortions did not use protection and thought protection was stupid. They believe condoms take the pleasure away from sex, yet they believe that killing babies that result from unprotected sex is okay and they are fundamentally flawed people. Abortion is murder and should not be used as a form of contraception.
