"... what the best outcome would be. For those folks to repent (or leave if they won’t repent) and it becomes a crisis pregnancy support center. Be bold; ask the Lord directly for this."

This sounds excellent. Really excellent! I have been praying for their conversion. This is a joint Evangelical-Catholic effort. by the way. I find that people from different kinds of churches work and pray together very well in the pro-life movement. We have the BEST Catholic-Baptist alliance here.

Thanks for your "strategic vision."

If I may ask, pray for us!

Hey Ma’am, I pray the Lord you get a spiritual momentum going.

It is heartening to me to see lay efforts pull together like this, and I believe the official Baptist clergy are less averse to participation in such than some official Roman Catholic clergy are, but it isn’t a question of clergy here. It’s a question of believers with Christ in their hearts. I am an “honorary” Baptist, I suppose. I worship at a Baptist church. But I’m not an official member; I am actually a member still of my old nondenominational Bible church in Illinois. If the Baptists approach me to join, then I’ll discuss it (I’d willingly go teetotal for it if needed, though I think they ought to change to a positive “glorify God in your body” focus in their congregational covenant, rather than a negative “never drink alcohol” focus). But they accept me in all worship including praise music (what I did on keyboards a couple Sundays ago knocked their spiritual socks off: “God And God Alone.”)

I already prayed for your spiritual success. Remember to make exalting the Lord and asking for His exaltation a primary point. Whether prayers to other entities can help is a matter on which we obviously go different doctrinal directions... but ultimately it’s the exaltation of the Lord that matters. I’ll risk hoots from my Protestant fellows by saying OK, I’ll grant that Mary might... an archangel might... with the caveat that both depend on validity of post-biblical claims to special revelation... but you KNOW when you have. There will be NO doubt (if you positively want to see that it is done right do it yourself).

So what is the timing for this?
