Ok, so what's it going to be this year? And how long is it going to last?

Are you going to (again) lose weight? Or start exercising? Or maybe you've decided to really get better at those "Thank You" notes?

Well, how about a "New Year's Resolution" that can really make a difference? [Continue reading . . . »]

My daughter passed by the clinic early Christmas morning and saw something inside the fence of the vacant lot at Planned Parenthood. She drove around to see it better and saw it was a manger.

She took pictures of it and I will try to put the pictures on here. After church we all took a ride out there. Two statues, a wooden shelter with words on it and an empty manger sits in the field and faces the clinic.

Update: Pictures of the caroling day are up! Click here to check them out.

What a joyful occasion our "Empty Manger" caroling day was! Today we toured four abortion facilities across DuPage County bringing the light of Christmas and the love of Christ to those darkest of places.

As Eric continually reminded us, the abortuary is the opposite of Christmas. Christmas welcomes life into the world, the Life that was the Light of men. The abortionist destroys the life that is so desperately trying to enter the world. This poignant contrast pervaded our day. [Continue reading . . . »]

Clinic witness Joe B. shares this story of a woman who turned away from abortion at Planned Parenthood and chose life for her baby. Thanks to Joe and all those who brave the cold to pray and counsel.

I thought I would pass this great success story from the prayer vigil on Saturday December 8.

Between noon and 1:00 p.m. Ginny N., Alfredo P. and I were standing across from the entrance to Planned Parenthood. Two women between ages 20 and 25 came out of the clinic and got into a Burgundy four door sedan (maybe a Pontiac or Buick).

I posted a couple of new videos from last month's protest of Planned Parenthood Aurora. The first mixes Eric’s closing prayer with various pics and video clips from the day. If you know someone who is considering attending this Saturday, it gives a nice overview of how these monthly rallies look and feel: peaceful, prayerful, organized and effective.

The second captures yet another First Amendment violation against pro-lifers in Aurora. Roger Earl was not permitted the freedom to pray quietly while walking his daughter in a stroller. Pro-lifers are denied access to certain sidewalk areas during our monthly protests (which is unconstitutional in itself), but Roger was not even [Continue reading . . . »]

I've been missing the "Wednesday Open Thread", and since I have the power …

In some posts on this blog, there are those that suggest that we go away already, or that we are hateful. I tend to think that we are loving and are having a very positive impact on people as a whole.

The question for today is:

Are we making a difference in a positive way, and how?

And since it's almost Thursday, please feel free make your comments past Wednesday!

God Bless, Roger

When I arrived at the Planned Parenthood facility this morning I saw every entrance into the shopping center had pro-lifers with pictures of babies who had been aborted. It was very cold and starting to snow, the people we relieved in front of the clinic were happy to see us and spoke to us about a couple they believe turned away and did not have an abortion. We were encouraged and began to pray and to try to speak with those going in.

Today at about 2:30PM, I was standing outside the Planned Parenthood facility, praying and trying my hand at sidewalk counseling, when a big white truck pulled into the facility and on the back of the truck was a sign that said "Medical Waste". My heart dropped as I realized what this truck was really here for and what it meant.

Planned Parenthood is open! And it has been since October 2nd. You may be feeling or asking yourself, "What can I possibly do now?" Well, a LOT! And it's not all that difficult. It will take a little time, some prayer, humility and perseverance, but here's what you CAN do … [Continue reading . . . »]

I am Vita T. Like many of you, I also have read the Planned Parenthood blog "written" by Emily X. We are not allowed to speak the truth on their website so I, Vita T, have decided to counter Emily X falsehoods—every one of them.

Emily X: some notes about my day, some photos, some video. I want you to know what it's like to work for Planned Parenthood.
