Good evening everyone,
Clerks across the state of Michigan will begin mailing out absent voter ballots by tomorrow, Thursday, September 29. This means that many people could begin casting their votes for or against dangerous and extreme Proposal 3 this week.
A couple of things are crucial -
1. From now until Election Day on November 8, we need to keep on educating ourselves and as many people as possible about the TRUTH of Proposal 3. Here are just some of the dangerous effects this measure would have if passed:
- Legalize abortion at any time in pregnancy for any reason.
- Allow children to undergo abortion or sterilizing transgender procedures without parental knowledge or consent.
- Allow abortions to be performed by anyone, even those without a medical license.
- Allow any person to help minor girls obtain an abortion without her parents' knowledge or consent.
- Protect abortion providers from penalties if they kill or injure a woman during an abortion.
- Elimination of the state's partial-birth abortion ban and late-term abortion ban.
- Revoke state law that requires abortion facilities to be licensed and inspected.
- Require taxpayers to pay for abortions.
2. Along with educating ourselves and others, we are being asked by the bishops of Michigan to pray, fast, and give alms.
We've included a link below for the 54 Day Rosary Novena that is currently being prayed all across Michigan, and the link to sign up for our Their Voice adoration hour and time of prayer at St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception, as well as a list of organizations that can use your support in caring for women, children, and families in need by giving them the resources necessary to sustain life.
