WARMINSTER, Penn., Apr. 6 /Standard Newswire/ -- At 7:05 AM today, approximately 30 participants in "Survivors United" began a sit-in in front of the doors to Planned Parenthood's abortion chamber at 610 Louis Drive in Warminster, Bucks County, Pa. Abortionist Powell usually commits approximately 20 abortions on a "typical Friday morning."

 

"We are taking this action, even at the risk of arrest and prosecution, in an effort to save the lives of some of the children and women who are scheduled to be killed or harmed at this location," explained Mark Houck, who is the 32 year old director of Survivors United.

 

Mark also explained, "We are acting in a spirit of repentance. We are asking God to forgive us, our nation and the Church for our apathy and cowardice that has allowed our nation's Abortion Holocaust to continue for at least 34 years."

 

Mark concluded, "Medical science clearly shows that the child in the womb is a separate and unique human being - our neighbor. As Christians, we are called to love our neighbors as ourselves. Finally, state law allows trespassing to save human life. So, we look forward to our actions being vindicated in court."

 

"With the new Democratic leadership and pro-life effort being stalled in Washington DC, I expect to see a new move of peaceful pro-life activism like what is happening here in Pennsylvania to spread all across the country.  One could expect a majority of future pro-life efforts to be initiated on a local level," said Rev. Patrick Mahoney on site at this morning's Rescue (sit-in).  Rev. Patrick Mahoney, director of the Washington, DC based Christian Defense Coalition is also available for comment via cell phone 540-538-4741

 

This Good Friday Rescue is the first one at this location since abortions began there in January 2000.
