Our job after roe
We are on mission to help the people of Delaware understand this truth.
Recognizing the inherent dignity of human life is foundational to a person’s worldview. It is up to us to have the hard conversations, and share the truth about the evil and violence of abortion.
The government is deciding that not all humans have rights. In contrast, the Bible teaches that people have inherent and unalterable dignity and worth as God’s Image-Bearers (Gen. 1:26-27, Psalm 139:13-14, James 3:9-10).
It is up to each of us to continue to change hearts and minds, to recognize, affirm, and live by the fact that all people are created equal, endowed by their Creator with the right to life.
Know the landscape – abortion in delaware
The 2022 Dobbs decision overturned Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court case that claimed a Constitutional right to abortion. While this is good news, it is only the beginning. The preborn are still not considered “persons,” and as a result are still being legally murdered.
There is an abortion clinic in every Delaware county; abortions are also regularly performed in DE hospitals. Parental consent is not required in the state of Delaware.
In Delaware, babies can be legally aborted until “viability,” a standard that is left to the abortionist to define, based on SB 5 passed in June of 2017. The only thing standing in between a baby at any age and abortion is the abortionist’s judgment call.
The majority of abortions in Delaware are dangerous, DIY chemical abortions. Because of the Federal relaxing of protocols, women can take these abortion pills with no medical oversight, and now local pharmacies are also able to carry these pills.
In 2021, HB 31 passed which gives abortionists immunity if the mother is injured or dies during the abortion procedure.
HB 320 and HB 455, both passed in 2022, allows APRNs and physician assistants, both employed in public schools, to perform surgical abortions and prescribe the pills for chemical abortions.
Take Action
People across the globe gather to pray at the entrance of their local abortion clinics. The peaceful, 24 hour presence during these 40 days has saved thousands of lives and influenced hundreds of abortion workers to leave the clinics.
