Psalm 127-3: Children are a heritage from the Lord and the fruit of the womb His reward.

Psalm 147-13.  He has blessed your children within you.

Heavenly Father Your word tells us children are a heritage from You,  the fruits of the womb,    Your blessing.  You have blessed the children within us.  They are precious in your sight.  You have called them by their name.  You love them.

Heavenly Father society is killing unborn children.  They are being sacrificed on the altar of greed and selfishness.  We pray Father that society will awake to this dreadful crime, that the conscience of the nation and Parliament  will be aroused, and the nation  will repent and cease the killing.  We ask in Jesus' name, Amen.

 

On October 3lst, 2004, All Saints Eve, our dear friend  Margaret died after a few months illness.  Margaret was a most loyal  and stalwart Member of our committee, always extremely courteous and helpful and exceedingly generous.  She helped with the mailing of  our Newsletter, collated our scrap books of news clippings, and hosted many of our committee meetings at her home.  We all miss her lovely smiles and the warmth of her presence, and pray for the repose of her immortal soul.
