"The church is not pro life it is anti abortion". This statement made by Derek Loux seems to ring true more and more. The majority of Christians are against abortion, but are doing little to offer in the way of an alternative. Lets face the facts we live in a day and age where not all children are wanted by their parents, and not all pregnancies are welcome. As a church we must provide not just a willing body of protest against abortion, we must also provide the CURE for abortion. That cure is adoption !! When we protest outside abortion clinics how very often are we confronted with the question "If I don't keep and care for my baby who will? " How many of you are ready to raise your hand and step forward?
As A body we must prepare and become ready to welcome these children into our homes our hearts. How many couples and singles in your church are home study ready to adopt?. We must begin to advocate and educate families within the church on the power of adoption. When a woman entering an abortion clinic stops and asks a protester "who will care for her child" Imagine if that protester was willing and able to step forward and say "I will"
We need people to carry and hold antiabortion signs at rallies and protests, but we also need the church standing next to them carrying signs that say "I can and will raise your child"
Please start identifying families and singles in your church that are willing to open their hearts and homes to the unwanted children of this world and begin walking with them on a path to complete a home study for adoption or foster care.
Abortion is an epidemic, Adoption is the cure but it can't be just a few it needs to be the church James 1:27
