Planned Parenthood Opens Abortion Biz in the Heart of Amish Country
Life News ^ | May 2, 2023 | Maria Gallagher

The advent of abortions in Lancaster, Pennsylvania demonstrates the abortion industry’s relentless drive to expand abortion in the Commonwealth.

This bucolic community, best known as a sanctuary for the Amish population and a lovely tourist attraction, is now home to a Planned Parenthood that advertises chemical abortion on its website.

The opening of an abortion center in the heart of the homeland came despite a groundswell of opposition from the area. It is unbelievably sad that abortion totals in Lancaster will now rise from zero to who-knows-how-many.

Abortions have been on the rise in the Keystone State, with totals topping 33,000 in 2021, the latest year for which statistics are available from the Department of Health.

The statistics tell a sobering story. Chemical abortions—which often leave a mother to deal with the aftermath of abortion on her own—now vastly outnumber surgical abortions. Research indicates that chemical abortions also have four times the complication rate of surgical abortions. Meanwhile, thousands of women who went in for an abortion in 2021 had already had one or more abortions in the past, indicating that abortion is being used as a form of birth control.

With the opening of this new abortion facility in Lancaster, there’s a likelihood that abortion totals statewide will rise again. This is a tragic situation which should be proclaimed a major public health issue by state authorities.

But under the pro-abortion Shapiro Administration, that is unlikely to happen. It seems that every week Gov. Josh Shapiro is tweeting about his support for abortion. The lack of awareness about what abortion does to an unborn baby and a mother is truly disturbing.

We grieve for the babies lost to abortion in Lancaster County. These children deserved a chance at life. Thankfully, many organizations in south central Pennsylvania stand ready to assist pregnant women facing challenging circumstances.

They can provide the help that Planned Parenthood won’t.

You know, in another era, the Amish or their Anabaptist forebears wouldn’t have stood for this.

I saw a statistic that if present birth rates continue into the future as they are now - in 100 years, half the US population would be Amish.

Leftists certainly can’t risk that - better send in the pro-death SS shock troops now.

some government entity had to have given permission for them to build/open in the first place.
the clinic did not just spring open in a strip mall or barn without permits.

Prayer For Women Planning An Abortion

Heavenly Father, we know that every good and perfect gift comes from You and that children are a special heritage from the Lord. But Father, we also know that the enemy of our soul seeks to kill and destroy all that is from You, and especially the lives of little babies in the womb.

And so we lift up all women who may be planning to have an abortion, or who have been deceived into thinking that this is a woman’s right, rather than a sin against their creator God, and we pray that You would create in their hearts a desire to do what is right and a realisation of the evil that surrounds the practice of abortion, that they themselves are considering.

Bring into the life of each mother those that would give godly counsel and change the hearts of those who have already made a decision to go down the route of abortion.

Instil in the heart of each woman a deep love for the baby they are carrying, and we pray that many may be prompted to turn from their planned abortion and look to the Lord Jesus, for the grace do what is right. This we ask in Jesus’ name,

Amen.

“For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.”
(Psalm 139:13)

“And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:”
(Luke 1:41)

“For, lo, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and no rasor shall come on his head: for the child shall be a Nazarite unto God from the womb: and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.”
(Judges 13:5)

“But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called me by his grace,”
(Galatians 1:15)

“The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.”
(John 3:8)

“Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.”
(Psalm 51:6)

“Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.”
(Psalm 51:5)

“A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.”
(Proverbs 17:17)

These people are really as evil as we thought.

Now, if they can just get the Amish girls to start having sex.
