Obamacare mandates that force religious
organizations to pay for abortion and
contraception through insurance prerniums. This
court battle is in defense
of religious liberties that are under attack by
Obamacare's mandates, which order
people of faith to violate their consciences by
paying to end innocent life.
Last December, the District Court in Washington,
DC, ruled against Priests for
Life, which immediately filed an appeal to
prevent the enforcement of this draconian ruling that threatens religious
freedom in the United States.
On Thursday, May 8, 2O14 the District of Columbia Circuit
Court of Appeals heard oral
arguments in thls cruclally lmportant case.
"If Priests for Life wins this suit, it will
secure liberty for all faith-based organizations that oppose the shedding of
innocent blood on religious grounds," said Troy Newman, President of Operation
Rescue. "But if they lose, we all will fall under the oppressive mandate that
forces us to violate our conscience and pay for procedures and drugs that kill
the innocent. At that point, those of us who will not submit to this tyranny
will face certain persecution. We pray it doesn't come to that. Please join us
in standing in solidarity with Priests for Life ."
Local Wisconsin Catholics are organizing protests
outside a La Crosse Catholic-affiliated hospital that they say is employing up
to three abortionists on staff. While the protesters acknowledge that the
abortionists don't perform abortions at the Catholic hospital itself they say it
is unacceptable for the hospital to be affiliated with abortionists in any way,
and are calling for the hospital to sever ties with the doctors. Leif and Karen
Arvidson, who are spearheading the protests, say that they were galvanized into
action after Dr. Carl Rose, who works at the Catholic hospital part-time,
suggested abortion as an option when their eighth child was found to have
physical ailments in 2012.
Please pray “Priests for Life”, “Operation
Rescue” and all that are in this fight against Abortion.
PRAY TO SAVE AMERICA!
