Here's Your Monday Update

JOIN US IN PRAYING FOR THOSE AFFECTED BY THE WAUKESHA TRAGEDY

Pro-Life Wisconsin is praying for the victims and their families who were killed or assaulted by the driver of a red SUV on Sunday afternoon in downtown Waukesha at the Christmas Parade.

When human life is devalued to the extent that a nation legalizes the killing of innocent babies in the womb, we cannot be surprised when human life is not valued outside of the womb. The law is a teacher, but we have failed to protect everyone in society with the law, that human life is sacred and has value.

Let us work together for the day that all human life is protected under the law.

May the souls of those killed in this crime fly straight to Jesus.

“What is taking place in America is a war against the child. And if we accept that the mother can kill her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another?"

- Saint Teresa of Calcutta, February 1997 National Prayer Breakfast
