Hi Folks!
I cannot believe how fast the leaves are falling! The burning bushes are burning, the fall mums are beautiful, and I want summer to last!!!
Obviously the most important thing on everyone’s mind is the upcoming election. There are so many things depending on the result of it, but I guess I look to where it all begins. I hear people say that we must promote human rights and the freedom to exercise those rights. But what often gets lost in that notion is that without protecting the right to life, no other right can be enjoyed. I find it hard to understand that something so simple cannot be comprehended by everyone.
LifeChain is the first Sunday in October. If you are having a chain at your location and have not let Chris at the main office know, please call her 734-524-0162. We have signs here at the Oakland Macomb office.
Christmas cards are ordered. They seem to be taking an AWFULLY long time to get delivered. I call my rep at the card company everyday in the hope that we can speed up delivery. I have attached the Christmas card order form for you to fill out. I know some of you have already done so and as soon as I have the cards here, I will confirm everyone’s order.
The Legislative Luncheon is October 19th at Laural Manor in Livonia (see attached flyer). Jason Negri is the guest speaker. He is president of the Patient’s Rights Council and will be speaking on end-of-life issues. I have heard him speak several times and he is really good. You can expect to see the issue of assisted suicide on the 2026 Michigan ballot so his remarks will be quite timely.
It is becoming increasingly clear to us that our many of our elected officials who are pro-life will not say so publicly or reply to a telephone call or an email. This is incredibly sad but a reality. Those who support abortion are strident, “out there” and hostile to those who are prolife. I do not think this should excuse those who are prolife for remaining silent, but I guess I can understand. If you don’t know how your candidates feel, call them or email them! Do so as a citizen in their district, not necessarily a pro-life person, and ask them how they stand on the issue of “reproductive justice or abortion health care. Then let us know what they said.
Love Life! Diane
