September 2020 Major Updates & How You Can Help

 

Dear Friends,

We have all endured a long, hot and challenging summer in so many ways. Let us give thanks to the Lord of all creation for our very lives. Many of us know those who have suffered in some way during this shutdown, even suffering the loss of loved ones. How may we pray for you? If you are hurting and feeling down, please send us an email. Please allow us the honor of lifting you up in prayer to our merciful and loving God.

We want to update you regarding our powerful billboard message for the remainder of 2020.  Here we go, taking another leap of faith! CRTL has reserved the board through November 29. Additionally, we requested a discount for booking through the end of the year and we were granted $1000 off the regular price!

Because of your faithful generosity and sacrificial giving, and knowing that together, we all believe so strongly in the importance of the message and of keeping the billboard on display only blocks from the huge Planned Parenthood abortuary, we are pressing on in faith. Most of you are well aware that this endeavor has been rather costly. Be aware also that every donation we receive goes directly toward the cost of the project and is an educational outreach effort, one that is 14 by 48 feet large! Thousands of passers-by see the beautiful image each day. We pray that their hearts and consciences are awakened to the humanity of that little Image Bearer of God!

 
 

In order to take control of the billboard through the end of 2020, totaling a 12 week commitment, we will need a little over $19,000. Right now, we have just about half that amount! Oh dear friends, we know this is a lot to ask and you have been so generous and considerate toward this project and others this year. But we really do need your sacrificial assistance and we humbly come to you, once again, to ask that you share in this financial burden with us. Only because of your faithfulness has Colorado Right To Life been blessed to have a powerful billboard displayed for almost an entire year! Be reminded that all of our directors are volunteers and receive absolutely no compensation. Our efforts are a labor of love to the glory of God! How wonderful it is that so many have now become witnesses to the message of Human Rights For All! They’ve seen the tiny beautiful baby in the womb, our neighbor, whom God commanded us to love. 

Will you take a moment right now to pray about this?  Examine your heart and whatever gift you may give, do so cheerfully!
Each one must give as he has decided in his heart,  not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.  And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work.  2 Cor 9:7-8

There are a few other wonderful updates we want you to know about. Fatina (we’ve corrected the spelling) and her husband and children are well. She is the woman who walked away from Planned Parenthood a few months ago. Many of you helped with financial gifts as well as clothing and baby items. Another local, private agency has generously and graciously assisted with rent help and job searches. There are many members of the Body and we are humbled and blessed to witness the outworking of the Holy Spirit through all these various members!

During the COVID shutdown, many new faces have stood with us at the abortuary gates of hell. As I reviewed in my mind’s eye, I counted 19 newcomers! Dear saints who came and bore witness to make a difference! Their love for Christ and fealty toward the babies caused our hearts to swell! Our gratitude is overflowing! Please come join us, will you? Someone is there every Tuesday through Saturday morning beginning around 9:00 am until noon. The address of Planned Parenthood: 7155 E 38th Ave in Denver. You will be blessed and babies’ lives may be spared!

While we are at Planned Parenthood and as we are able to hand out resources there, we include info for abortion pill reversal. The abortion pill is becoming a favored method by which tiny babies are murdered. CRTL recently ordered 500 glossy info cards which explain that even if a woman has taken the first dose, there is a way to stop the effects and reverse the process. Thank you for helping us provide this much needed resource. This is one of many printed pieces that we hand out regularly.

The Directors at CRTL recognize the many important issues at stake in this election year. Increasingly, our nation is in a moral free fall and though we can’t work to fix every problem, we can, by the power of God and through His grace, be a beacon of light to a dark and dying world. We CAN have the mind of Christ, and therefore be not ashamed of the Gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes! 

With overflowing gratitude,
