ARE YOU WILLING TO SACRIFICE FOR LIFE?
The purpose of Sacrifices for Life is to rally Christians to make daily sacrifices to establish a culture
of life in America – to help turn the tide against abortion and other anti-life practices that are
threatening to destroy the family, and ultimately, society itself.
The upcoming elections are crucial for the pro-life movement in this country. Many of us are praying
and working to elect pro-life candidates who will fight to uphold our family values. The Old and New
Testaments and the lives of the saints teach us that work and prayer COMBINED WITH SACRIFICE
is a powerful means of obtaining God’s mercy. We are asking that individuals pledge to generously offer sacrifices from
now until the elections on November 4th.

she ended it in the Americas years ago!!
