We urge all our priest members to preach clearly and vigorously about the evil of assisted suicide. It was on a Christian cruise that George Johnson and his wife Marlys noticed a gentleman at their dinner table wearing an unusual lapel pin - a pair of tiny feet. That experience energized the Johnsons to become active Pro-Life advocates. Marlys, a registered nurse, worked for five years as a volunteer at one of Chicago's crisis pregnancy centers. Meanwhile, George created a series of Pro-Life bank checks bearing full color images of babies, mothers and families.
Checks can help change things because a picture can be an effective conversation starter.
Sometimes images touch people at a deeper, unspoken level. Johnson prays that these affirming images of families will have a positive impact on the sixteen persons who see each check as it travels through the financial system. From the Mail We receive a lot of calls and mail from women who have had abortions, and many of them ask us to share their testimony with others. One recently called and said she had many abortions. She had seen our TV show, and was very grateful for it, knowing that it can spare someone else from the grief of abortion.
