NOTE! This is a PEACEFUL & PRAYERFUL effort! NOT A PROTEST! If you can't commit to the Statement of Peace, we ask that you refrain from joining this group. The guidelines of Stand & Pray must be respected in order to be considered a member. We operate under the Helpers of God's Precious Infants philosophy:
...the most important thing to happen outside of an abortion clinic is for people
to be there in prayer.
When a pregnant woman in difficulty approaches the abortion clinic and
she sees people praying outside the mill.... the pregnant woman
immediately, consciously or subconsciously, thinks of God. God is
made present through your prayerful presence. And the existence of her
hidden unborn baby, the potential victim, whose existence our society
forgets or denies, is also made present through your prayerful
presence. Moreover your prayers are obtaining from God for the
frightened mothers the trust and courage to choose life for their
unborn children. To be effective the prayers and the counselors also
need each other and should act as one. ...It is difficult to
maintain silence and prayer over a long period of time. Yet every woman
is equally important whether she comes early or late. She must
not be deprived of your prayerful presence. If a ... volunteer or
volunteers need to talk or relax, (we ask) the person or persons
(to) take a brief walk away from the group, rather than turning the
prayerful presence into a coffee break. (from Msgr. Reilly, founder of Helpers of God's Precious Infants)
