I donate money to the Pro Life Committee, hoping it helps.

There are many ways to do your part; one is to give to Crisis Pregnancy Centers.

Only if you received a calling from on high to minister to heathens and demons.

The accusation portion by other Christians is called manipulation, and it too is a sin.

There are many ways to minister God to people, not just through abortion protest, or working in crisis pregnancy centers. Giving financial contributions to crisis pregnancy centers, or even those who do protest, is a huge help, and enormously appreciated, as are helping hands.

Working in active prolife ministry is, in my opinion, a very select calling. Not everyone is cut out for it. And even among prolife workers, most acknowledge that active protest is a very different calling, and not everybody is cut out for that, either.

Go to God, pray, worship him, intercede for the prolife ministry...that’s a huge calling in its3lf. But the point I want to make is Go to your father in heaven, and ask him what he would like you to do for him, how can you help, what is important to him that you might be the ideal person to carry that out.

That’s what you do. He will show you, or he will tell you, or both. Be willing to hear, and do whatever he asks of you.

Gee, I sure hope there were Christian ministers at Nazi Death camps! Heaven knows those poor guards needed ministering. It was sure tough to do their job!

If you have the Holy Spirit, praying and ministering outside a mill is the best way, I think. Miracles have happened.

Miracle 1: A guy went to Confession and told the priest he had helped his girlfriend get an abortion. Instead of giving the guy a bunch of rote prayers to say, the priest said his penance was to minister at an abortion mill.

The next Saturday, he went. He was praying with the others, when one of them pointed out a woman who was just arriving. “That one’s yours,” she said. Oh no, he thought. I don’t know what to say. He tried to get out of it. No, the woman said, don’t worry. We’ll be praying for you.

He walked up to the woman and she immediately burst into tears. When she could speak again, she said, “Last night I prayed that if I was supposed to have this child, that a man would walk up to me the next morning at the clinic.”

He had his first “save,” without even saying a word.

His summary: “I was converted on the spot.” Note that he was a Catholic, yet he speaks of conversion.

Miracle 2: Jewish woman who prays with the other foes of abortion outside a clinic on Saturday mornings sees a car drive up. Man stays inside car, woman goes into abortion mill.

Jewish woman guesses that they are Hispanic. She has a rosary with her this time. She goes up to the car and the guy rolls down his window. She doesn’t ask him whether he wanted the baby, she just says, “Let’s pray the rosary together.” They begin, and he looks up, past her. His girlfriend is walking out of the mill. She says, “I changed my mind.”

They are going to Hell unless the Spirit intervenes. But so far He hasn’t and they are going to Hell.

Nope - take care of your own soul and carry the Word when possible....God will sort out the rest.

Simple answer is yes. He who sees to do good, and does not do it, to him it is sin.
