Most Pro-Lifers just found out Planned Parenthood has been planning to build this Abortuary since 2002. It's supposed to be one of the largest Abortuary's in the Nation.

None of the contracters knew it was going to be an Abortuary. Although the contracters later were suspicious when they had to install a bullet proof window and a couple of other things which were questionable.

You can find out more about it at these websites...

--------

A $7.5 million Planned Parenthood abortion clinic that will open in September in Aurora, Ill., is taking the Chicago area by surprise, the Chicago Tribune reports.

Neighbors thought they were seeing the completion of the "Gemini Health Center," just as the sign says. So did the painters, carpenters, electricians and other tradesmen who have been working on the project for the last eight months.

Just last week, Aurora Councilman Chris Beykirch learned that Planned Parenthood was moving in.

Default Re: Planned Parenthood opens new abortion clinic in Aurora Ill.

There has been a few succesful ways to stopping these Abortuary's. Here are a few...

1. Prayer is most important. You can either pray at home for the end of these facilities or go pray the rosary in front of the clinic. Prayer is very powerful. (If your not there praying, you might as well hang a sign up on the Abortuary door which states "Our Surrounding Churches Support This Abortuary")

2. Buying a building and setting up a 24 hour Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration Chapel has been very effective.

3. Our community was the first in Chicagoland to set up a Catholic Crisis Pregnancy Center which includes Project Gabriel and Project Rachel. It has been very successful and has already expanded to a new area. We are now in Lombard, IL and Downers Grove, IL offsetting Abortuary's in both area's.

Urge Peter Breen, the leader of the Catholic Crisis Pregnancy Centers to build another in the Naperville/Aurora Community to offset the new Aurora Abortuary. I know he is itching to get into that area anyhow since her grew up in Naperville, IL. We need your prayers, letters and anything you can send to support a third Catholic Crisis Prenancy Center. Here is Peter Breen's website...

http://isupportwcs.com

4. Start Project Gabriel in your Parish. First ask your Pastor if you can start it. There has been great success fighting Abortuary's through Project Gabriel. On average we have 70 people per Parish getting involved with Project Gabriel even if they were not known as being a strong Pro-Life Parish. For more information, go here...

Eric Scheidler is in Baltimore assisting Jack Ames' annual Tell the Truth tour in the Baltimore-Washington area. Jack runs a very effective tour, and likes to have someone from Face the Truth in Chicago accompany him, since we got him started and he likes to review new tactics and get the reports on truth tours taking place all across America.

Eric to Head PP Fight in Aurora

When Eric returns he will channel much of his time and energy in conducting a challenge to the the new Planned Parenthood abortion center in his hometown, Aurora, IL. We wonder if the folks at Planned Parenthood realized when they decided to pollute Aurora with a death camp, that they were on Eric Scheidler's home turf. Not smart.

Default Re: Planned Parenthood opens new abortion clinic in Aurora Ill.

I just received this for those of you in the Chicago area...

Pro-Life Friend --

I need your help. As you've no doubt heard, Planned Parenthood is planning to open an abortuary on the East Side of Aurora (240 N. Oakhurst) on Sept. 18. It would be one of the largest abortion facilities in the country.

This news has generated national media attention -- and tremendous zeal among area pro-lifers. I've been inundated with offers to help, and some people are already going out to the site to pray, try to talk to the contractors, etc. Thanks be to God!

Here's where I need your help. I would like to meet with committed pro-lifers from the area this coming Monday to discuss our strategy.

Here are the details:

WHEN: August 6 at 7:00 p.m.
WHERE: St. George Church basement, 720 Rural St. in Aurora.
MAP: http://tinyurl.com/2nmxvo

At this meeting we will discuss details for a 24-hour vigil at the PP building for the 40 days before the scheduled Sept. 18 opening. I will be asking for volunteers not only to commit to praying at the site but to help recruit others.

I'm also looking for help promoting an open Community Meeting planned for Aug. 16 at the Prisco Center. And we need people willing to get in touch with local churches, prayer groups, civic groups, etc.

If you are willing and able to take an active role in the campaign to stop this abortuary, please attend the meeting Monday. Everyone who attends will be given a special job to do to ensure the success of this campaign.

Yours for Life,
Eric J. Scheidler

I personally think we should bring in our reinforcements to fight the Abortuary!

Default Re: Planned Parenthood opens new abortion clinic in Aurora Ill.

I went to the new Aurora (IL) Planned Parenthood Abortion Mill today to take a look at it. It is supposed to open on Sept. 18th. When I got there about 2PM today there were four ladies there praying the rosary. I joined in with them to pray the rosary. When we finished the rosary two other people from the area who were just driving by joined us. Then two more ladies joined us and soon afterward two priests joined us. We had 11 people there praying the rosary at the Abortuary. I was really happy about the turnout.

While we were there they had the sprinklers on for the grass. One lady commented its strange how Planned Parenthood puts so much effort to keep the grass alive but then terminates the lives of so many humans. It made us all think a bit.

If you can make it, come join us for the 40-day prayer vigil (I think its 24 hours). It’s in Aurora. You can take Rt. 59 north past I-88 to New York Street. Turn right on New York street. Then go left on Oakhurst Drive and its right next to Dominick’s. We had people there from Aurora, Naperville, Batavia, Wheaton and Lombard.

This vigil would be a good time to hand out Project Gabriel/Crisis Pregnancy Center bumper stickers from Woman’s Choice Services which is a Catholic Crisis Pregnancy Center headed by Peter Breen.

Hope to see you out there!!

For more updated information on the new Planned Parenthood Abortuary, you can go here...

http://www.prolifeaction.org/

Eric Scheidler calls this "This is the most powerful grassroots pro-life effort I've ever seen," remarked Scheidler. "We can scarcely keep track of the prayer pledges coming in. The people of Aurora and their neighbors in nearby towns do not want an abortion clinic here. Period."

These are very strong words from someone who spends his whole life working to save the lives of the unborn - isn't it?

Mike

If you want to help bring down this PP and drive away customers consider calling out the bigboys who can help.

On abortionNO.org you can purchase the greatest weapons available in the prolife aresenal. Graphic photos stop women from having abortions all the time. Why not show the workers the truth on the very first day and see if you can't convince some women to stop from killing their babies the most effective way possible?

Also you can contact the group through their website and maybe raise support to get them to bring up a truck to drive around town and the abortion mill, I have personally saved lives by doing this outside of a Planned Parenthood. Please PM if you are in this area and want to really make a difference outside of the power of prayer!

Last night the Pro-Aborts faced off against the Pro-Lifers in a rally in Aurora, IL. The Aurora Beacon News shows slanted coverage for the Pro-Aborts in its newspaper today. Typical mainstream media.

The Aurora Beacon News showed one picture of a few Pro-Aborts holding a sign which reads "Keep Abortion Legal". There were no pictures of the many Pro-Lifers at the event.

http://www.suburbanchicagonews.com/b...NIC_S2.article

The picture in the above link shows the Pro-Aborts holding their "Keep Abortion Legal" sign. I think it is time for the Pro-Life Action League to mix in with the Pro-Abort crowd and hold their famous sign which looks like the "Keep Abortion Legal" sign but reads "Keep Murder Legal". I love this sign!

Anyhow you can keep up with the coverage at these websites...

Default Wrong approach

Plal,

The heart is in the right place with your previous post but it won't work and actually will hurt your cause more then it helps.

You would have the opportunity to help women who hold the abortion supporting signs by holding signs that depict the reality of abortion.

The only group that sells clear and in my humble opinion the most effective photos is abortionNO.org. I have looked at the archaic signs that are often used for Face the Truth and they just don't seem to be of the quality nor appropriate first 90 days of gestation of the baby.

It does us NO good to hold photos of an aborted baby in the second trimester. If someone sees a murdered unborn baby at the age of 8 weeks and knows its awful then we have won the argument, its over and we can work on the next person.

If 50 people had showed up at that rally with the 3x4 foot signs that CBR sells I guarantee you many of those protestors would have become prolife in front of your eyes and might even start to hold those signs with you in the future.

At the March for Women's lives I heard countless stories of women converted on the spot to the prolife side simply because they saw the truth. I didn't have a graphic sign with me that day but I wish I would have. Thankfully the staff from AbortionNO.org were there with their entire setup.

We will continue to lose this argument if we don't make abortion inconceivable which only happens when you see what it looks like!

Prolife Across America
http://www.prolifeacrossamerica.org/

sells mini-billboards for $35.00.

They are of born babies, but they might be effective. It's scored and foldable, so it is easily transportable.

I'm sure if I'd seen the results of an 8 wk old abortion, it would've stopped me 30+ yrs ago.

Those photos you mention Mimi aren't effective because they don't dehumanize abortion and cause women NOT to chose that choice! Those women might have even spent the whole morning playing with their 1 year old at home and then gone and killed their unborn baby because they don't believe in the first ninety days a baby is a baby. Its important after we dehumanize abortion to then show nice photos but not before.
