It takes you to defeat Amendment 3. Here’s how

Many of you may have heard Amendment #3 (Right to Reproductive Freedom Initiative) but what does it really do?

In addition to Amendment 3 enshrining the right to abortion in the Missouri Constitution, legal scholars have further determined that this amendment, if passed in November, will also authorize the transgendering of minors.

This finding is based on two facts – trans gendering involves reproductive organs and according to the National Women’s Law Center, ‘reproductive rights’ includes bodily autonomy for trans and intersex youth.

I am sure we can all agree that this is unbelievably harmful and evil. Click HERE for an Amendment 3 Fact Sheet

We must get the word out about this horrific bill.  Please join us in doing one or all of the following:

• Pray!  Pray!  And pray some more!  This is a spiritual battle, and our efforts will be in vain without His help, guidance, and direction!  Please take time to read the following Scriptures that show clearly how God views human life in the womb!
  • Luke 1:40-41
  • Luke 1:42-44
  • Genesis 25:22-23
• Meet with your pastor as soon as possible and encourage him to boldly speak biblical truth against Amendment 3.
  • Click HERE for a legal memo for pastors. from Constitutional attorney Mike Whitehead.  Mr. Whitehead works with Alliance Defending Freedom and has argued several cases before the U.S. Supreme Court.  You may be surprised to learn that churches and other 501(c)(3) organizations have every right to speak from the pulpit, encourage people to vote NO on Amendment #3, put out yard signs, etc.  If women and girls don’t hear the Word of God from their pastor on this subject, they will fall prey to the lies of the abortion industry.
  • Attached is a Sample Sermon for pastors that includes Scripture references, details on the Amendment, as well as great information on the abortion issue in general.
  • Every abortion takes the life of an unborn baby.  There is nothing ‘reproductive’ about terminating the life of a human being created in the image of God.
  • Abortion is a potential matter of life and death for women and young girls who go through one.
  • Abortion is known to have severe and long-lasting emotional impacts on those who make this horrible choice.
  • Transgendering of children is a life-altering and non-reversible procedure and should not be allowed much less enshrined in our MO State Constitution.
• If your pastor decides not to speak from the pulpit, ask if he will allow you or others to speak in Sunday School or Wednesday night events on the topic. Click HERE for a sample Sermon for the pastor.
• Commit to contacting your friends, neighbors, relatives, co-workers, etc. to inform them of the truth about this amendment.  Carol spoke to a Senior Connection group at a church yesterday.  Sadly, two-thirds of the 40 in attendance had not heard about Amendment #3.  They were shocked and saddened at its far-reaching and harmful implications.
  • If you need copies of any of the attached documents, I have several hundred that I can make available to those who need them.
  • We also have a supply of Vote NO on Amendment 3 we can make available or plant in your yard!!!
  • You, like us, must actively reach out to your friends, neighbors, etc.  Not doing so makes us complacent and part of the problem.

Martin Treptow was a young soldier who was killed in World War II.  The following was a note in a diary that was found on his body…””America must win this war.  Therefore, I will work, I will save, I will sacrifice, I will endure, I will fight cheerfully and do my utmost, as if the issue of the whole struggle depended on (us) me alone.

• May we not be guilty of inactivity!
• May we each Speak Out in defense of the unborn and in defense of children!
• May we each Act on our beliefs!
• And may we each Pray as if only God can move, and work as if it all depends on us!
