Exposing Works Done in Darkness

23899633884_312cd16155_k-2.jpg

In 2015, the Center for Medical Progress (CMP) released a series of
undercover videos exposing Planned Parenthood's horrifying and
illegal practices of harvesting and selling organs from aborted
babies. You may recall that MFC shared the horrifying videos with
you all as they were released over a period of several weeks. 

Over four years after the fact, Planned Parenthood and the National
Abortion Federation have managed to persuade a jury and much of the
public that they are the victims in this case and that David Daleiden
and his associates at the Center for Medical Progress owe them
restitution for damages caused by the undercover videos. 

The videos released by CMP revealed Planned Parenthood medical
directors callously discussing pricing of aborted fetal tissue over
lunch, making jokes about increasing prices for certain organs in
order to afford a Lamborghini and admitting to leaving abortion
survivors to die, as well as abortionists admitting to illegally
altering late-term abortion procedures so that harvested organs would
remain intact and discussing strategies for harvesting body parts
without violating bans on partial-birth abortions. In one video a
witness even remarked that an aborted baby's heart was still
beating after the procedure.

In a ruling against Daleiden in November 2019, the judge and jury
refused to take into account Planned Parenthood's crimes that
were exposed by the Center for Medical Progress or their First
Amendment rights to call into account the evil being committed by this
powerful organization. As the Center for Medical Progress stated in
their response to the ruling, "This is a dangerous precedent for
citizen journalism and First Amendment civil rights across the
country, sending the message that speaking the truth and using facts
to criticize the powerful is no longer protected by our
institutions."

Although six charges have been dropped, Daleiden and his associates at
CMP are still facing trial on nine felony counts and potentially up to
ten years in prison. He and Sandra Merritt will be arraigned on the
21st of this month.

You Can Defend Life, Family, and Religious Freedom by Participating in
Precinct Caucuses - FEBRUARY 25

Screen Shot 2020-02-07 at 12.54.51 PM.png

 

In just over two weeks, you'll have a chance to impact our state by
participating in party caucuses. This is a wonderful
opportunity to love our neighbors and to be "salt and light" for the
direction of a political party and the selection of candidates for
office at the most basic level. When we as Christians bring our
convictions of life, family, and religious freedom to
the caucus process, we have a real chance of improving the
political discourse in our state - and I think we can all agree that
it must be improved! 

Just a few things to note before we get started: first, unlike in past
years, the presidential straw poll will not take place during the
caucus. Instead, Minnesota will hold a presidential primary
on March 3. 

Second, this year, your participation is crucial. Some folks
in our state want to remove all references to protecting life and
advocating for religious freedom from the GOP party platform -
the only major party platform that still pledges support for
those most fundamental values. If you consider yourself a
Republican, your participation in your local caucus is the only
thing that will ensure this doesn't happen. Because, as Minnesotans,
we value life, family, and religious freedom. On February
25th, we have a chance to put that into action. Are you ready? Let's
get started!

25th (CLICK HERE)

Unplanned: How One Woman Defied Planned Parenthood (Free Film Showing
at Bethlehem Baptist Church)

Screen Shot 2020-01-31 at 1.27.52 PM.png

All Abby Johnson ever wanted to do was help women. As one of the
youngest Planned Parenthood clinic directors in the nation, she was
involved in upwards of 22,000 abortions and counseled countless women
about their reproductive choices. Her passion surrounding a
woman's right to choose even led her to become a spokesperson
for Planned Parenthood, fighting to enact legislation for the cause
she so deeply believed in.

Until the day she saw something that changed everything, leading Abby
Johnson to become one of the most ardent pro-life speakers in
America. 

The Sanctity of Life Ministry of Bethlehem Baptist Church invites you
to a showing of Unplanned

Sunday, February 9, 6pm, South Campus, 20700 Kenrick Ave, Lakeville

?Learn more about this FREE showing

Abby Johnson Defied Planned Parenthood. Are You Ready to Hear Her
Story in Person at Our Annual Dinner? (May 11)

Registration is now open

 for our biggest event of the year - our annual dinner with
pro-life crusader Abby Johnson. Abby's work with And Then There Were
None, a charity that helps abortion workers leave the industry, has
been hugely successful. And her new initiative, Love Lines, gives
financial support to women who choose LIFE.

But her story began in 2009, when she was a clinic director for
Planned Parenthood and had to witness, for the first time, an
ultrasound-guided abortion. With horror, she saw for the first time
what abortion really is: the killing by dismemberment of a baby. She
walked away and has been working to save lives ever since. Her
book Unplanned was turned into one of last year's most
surprising hit movies.

And she's coming to Minneapolis in May. Will you join us for our
Annual Dinner with Abby Johnson? Click below to register
now!

We expect this event to fill up, so make sure to register as soon as
you can.
