"Just Make Sure You Come with Cash"



Currently, Expectant Mother Care Centers are being attacked by the City Council of NYC. The Bill is # 371 and would require crisis pregnancy centers (CPCs) to post signs warning that the CPCs do not provide abortion services. There are many other portions to this bill, but this particular one would turn girls away from our centers.
The passing of this bill is just the start to the attempts of trying to shut our Centers down. I can understand where they are coming from. Places like Planned Parenthood work for years to get into mainly high schools where they can persuade the girls that it's totally ok to have sex with your boyfriend, just make sure you use protection. Next they say "don't have any protection? We will give it to you. Just make sure you come with cash".

The next and last thing they say to the girls is, "protection didn't work this time for whatever reason? No problem. Make an appointment with us, we'll give you an abortion. Just make sure you come with cash." Depending on the amount of abortions the girl needs to get, they could get up to 3,000 dollars and more per client. They know how to hook the girls in.
So when places like our Centers come along, and instead of encouraging an abortion, we help the woman keep her baby or make an adoption plan, Planned ParJustify Fullenthood is infuriated. Naturally. I understand. I wouldn't like me either if I worked for them. BUT I DON'T.
And what they are doing is wrong. Christ came so that we could have life and have it more abundantly. And in Proverbs, He talks about the 7 sins he hates the most, and "the killing of innocent blood" is one of them.


I believe and fear my God. That's why at the March for Life this year, my colleague Greg and I passed out hundreds of fliers to people from all over the country, asking them to sign the petition on SAVETHELIFECENTERS.COM to fight against the bill.

Let's fight for something that's worth more than the affirmation that we have come prepared with "cash" . There are things in this life, far greater than money.
