Annunciation - Beccafumi |
After Congressional recess, the Senate will vote on legislation to bar Planned Parenthood from all federal funding — putting the health of millions at risk. That means we have just days to stand up for Planned Parenthood and women's health, and just one chance to be heard. This is our moment, and we need to raise a massive outcry!Planned Parenthood Corporation
We know it is short notice — and it may be difficult for you to make it, but we need you, your friends and family by our side. It's critical that we demonstrate our community's strong support for Planned Parenthood. We need you to say NO to taking away family planning and birth control, lifesaving cancer screenings and testing for HIV and other diseases from the women in our community. You won't be able to miss us — we're traveling in a big pink bus. All you'll need to do is show up, stand up, and speak the truth with us. Bring your co-workers. Your sisters. Your mom. Your friends. Bring everyone you know who cares about Planned Parenthood and the people we serve. And for all who can't be there in person, join us online — right here!

Father [you know who] wants us to fall to our knees(bow if can not kneel) and pray the rosary when the bus pulls up in Madison. Do not speak to them he said. We will suffer for the salvation of their souls. They plan to come to Madison on the Solemnity of the Annunciation, this Friday, March 25. Please pray for their conversion. He said our praying on our knees will be a sign that touches their hearts.The PP site says they will also be in Milwaukee on the 25th. Several things strike me.
Waiting to hear where in Madison and what time. Might be college students on bus(spring break?).
- Oral contraceptives are a leading cause of breast cancer .... and they are driving a pink bus...
- The Republicans in the US house flip flopped and decided not to ensure taxpayers do not have to pay for abortions. It looks like Wisconsin is still set to defund Planned Parenthood from state aid, thanks to the courageous efforts of Gov. Walker.
- They visit both Milwaukee and Madison on the day we Catholics celebrate Life, Conception, and the Unexpected. Planned Parenthood would have counseled the Virgin Mary to abort Jesus Christ. I like Beccafumi's Annunciation above because the Virgin appears to be flexing her arm and strong. How true that "allowing" God to put us in a position of weakness(especially considering that she could be stoned to death) is when we are given true strength. The Lord is my strength and my shield, in whom my heart trusted and found help. So my heart rejoices; with my song I praise my God. - Psalm 28:7
