Helpers,
A reminder that our next Helper’s prayer gathering will be on Saturday January 5, 2019, if you need a ride, please call me at 812-841-0060. Remember December and January tends to be really cold and it is best to wear layers of clothing and to peel a layer off it you are too warm. We are on a more typically schedule meaning we do not have our 40 Days for Life coverage.

Roe V Wade Prayer Observance
Because many of us are unable to attend the March for Life in Washington DC on Friday January 18, 2019 or the Indiana March for Life on Tuesday January 22, 2019, I will be hosting/co-hosting two Prayer Observance events as follows;
Terre Haute Roe v Wade Prayer Vigil is Saturday January 19, 2019 12:00 PM (noon)
Brazil Roe v Wade Prayer Vigil Sunday January 20, 2019 1:00 PM
40 Days for Life – Spring 2019
The spring 40 Days for Life is during the Lent season. The actual dates are March 6 through April 14. This means we will be asked to cover the Saturday April 5 hours from 9:00 am UNTIL 2:00 pm.
Reunion
As we experienced over the last ten years many Helpers relocate or have a change in their schedule that does not allow them to attend. Many Helpers that have experienced this have mentioned to me they like to come even if it once a year. I am thinking that May 4, 2019 would be a good Saturday for us to mark on the calendar and meet up for Helpers in Bloomington. There is another option and that is where ever duty calls you to be on the first Saturday of the month, you can pray along with us. I have attached our prayers if anyone is able to pray along with us.
Thank you all for your prayers and support.
Spread your love for life,

The Helpers of God’s Precious Infants are a group of people committed to maintaining a loving and prayerful presence outside of the abortion mills, where God’s children are put to death. We unite ourselves with these victims in solidarity with their pain, as they are put to death at this modern day Calvary. We pray in reparation for the injustice being performed on their tiny bodies. Just as Mary and John lovingly stood and prayed beneath Jesus’ Cross as he died, we wish to remain with these children in the hour that they are crucified. Most of all, we love the unborn children who will be brought there that day. These children have been rejected by their parents, and are doomed to die. The only human love they may ever encounter in their short lives may be from those of us standing outside. www.helpersny.org
