This I received in an email. PLEASE participate. AND PRAY!!!
Dear Friends,
President Obama signed executive orders releasing funds to pay for abortions. It pains my heart to see the man leading our country committed to the shedding of innocent blood. Like the powerful image of the red LIFE tape, an empty red envelope will send a message to Barack Obama that there is moral outrage in this country over this issue. It will be quiet, but clear. Here is what we can do:
Get a red envelope. You can buy them at Kinkos, or at party supply stores (or recycle a valentine envelope as I did). On the front, address it to:
President Barack Obama
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
Washington , D.C.
On the back, write the following message.
This envelope represents one child who died in abortion. It is empty because that life was unable to offer anything to the world. Responsibility begins with conception.
Put a stamp on it and put it in the mail. Then forward this email to everyone who you think would send one too. I wish we could send 50 million red envelopes, one for every child who died before having a chance to live. Maybe it will change the heart of the president. What a visual this would be! Even the people who sort and deliver themail would see it. I think it is a great idea! I'm going to do it. Try to mail them on the weekend of Feb 28-March 1st. That gives us almost a month to pass the word as far and wide as we can. Of course, you can send a red envelope anytime you want, but getting lots at once is great too.

wow, I am way behind on your blog. I'm so impressed, way to take a stand! It is the one thing we have that makes us individuals! I hate abortion...........but you know where I'm going w/ this......that girls still need that option so that it isn't happening in back alleys, where then our tax dollars go anyway towards their stay at the county hospital to repair the damage. But, I am pro life, struggling w/ miscarriage and wondering why anyone would just throw away a life, well it makes me tear up thinking about it. I remember one of my first crisis calls in 2003 - I tried to talk a girl out of abortion. I was preg. w/ B. Imagine that conversation. So although I want girls to be able to do it in a legal and sanitary setting, I HATE IT! Great blog Kel, gives me much to think about.
